    Primer options....

    if you are doing bare steel or painting over galv steel with body colour, you can use fertan the rust converter, once it has been on for 24 hrs iirc and washed off it will have coated the metal and acts as a primer so you can paint straight on to it. never tried it on birmabright or whatever it...

    Series 1 Paint removal

    stripping back to bare metal is a lot of effort and expense it does give a better looking job but I would agree its not that much better cf. the level of effort, only worth it if you are doing a concours show job on a fully restored vehicle. it is also easy to make marks or ripples on the metal...

    Series 3 questions about heating system

    Series 3 questions about heating system

    valve is most likely blocked, the actual aperture is tiny compared to the hose diameter, I had to dig all the crap out of mine with what was a wire coat hanger, once cleaned out cab was as warm as toast. I would bypass the valve and let water go to the matrix all the time, as said you only get...

    Door seals

    recently did mine on the three and used some one piece chevy s10 door seals - had to cut some off so they fitted - they just pushed on all the way round, will only be an issue if the top is removed. chunkier than the s3 seals

    Tubeless/tubed tyres

    yes those tyres had got a bit perished, had been on years with low annual mileage, old pic, they have gone now. replaced the dust cover too, not sure what happened to the old one, assume someone knocked it off, can't see why someone would nick one iirc they are less than a pound, unless they...

    TV Police Land Rovers

    didn't realise they had swapped the landy in death in paradise, thought it was the same one. really annoying when Kris marshall and Josephine jobert called it a jeep though. Ben miller and sara martins (best combo of the series) called it a land rover

    TerrainTech galv bulkheads

    don't know about terrain tech, hadn't heard of them but they do look good. classic bulkheads do series bulkheads (refurbished and galvanised), bought bits off them and they seem ok but have heard stories of long waits where people have sent them their own bulkhead for refurbishment...

    thx for the replies, might just stick it up then and see what offers I get i still have all the bits - the cog, backing plate and castellated nut - I took off when I put the od on so that should be ok.

    Series 3 selling/buying add ons

    just interested in opinions really. do frills like bigger tyres 7.50's v 6.05's? or overdrives command much of a premium you are buying or selling an old series. probably going to bow out of series ownership so wondering whether to sell things like wolf rims or the od separately, neither of...
