    Restoring rusty bolts

    What is your method for restoring nuts and bolts to be re-used? Do you just wire brush them or do you soak and wash them in anything?

    Windscreen hinge bolts/bracket?

    Does anyone know if these can be replaced? I can find the hinges for sale but not the brackets/bolts. One side has rusted through completely and the otherwise doesn't look too far off. 1986 110

    Does anyone have a photo of the inside windscreen attachment?

    Bit of a strange request. I've had to do quite a bit of work to the bulkhead welding in new corner pieces and pillars. I'm trying to find a reference pic for the inside gap where the windscreen connects on each side of the bulkhead on a 1986 110 or similar. I'm going to have to fabricate a piece...

    What are people using to protect bare metal after doing repairs?

    I need to order 2 outriggers and tie braces and after the work I'm looking for something to coat the metal along with the rest of the front half of the chassis. What rustproofing protection would you recommend for rusty and clean metal? I've heard good things about some protection which work...

    1986 blue 110

    Where can I find out the colours for a blue '86 110 before I order any paint for my bulkhead build? I've looked through the internet a few times and mostly found old posts with dead links. I'd like to find all the blue colours from that year for that particular model so I can have a choice of...

    Has anyone lowered a LR?

    It wouldn't need much, just enough to get it under the garage door as currently it only clears the top by deflating the tyres and standing on the back. I'm about to start thinking about budget shocks and possibly springs if needed. I won't be doing tons of deep mud off roading so a slight...

    Does anyone know if it's possible to trace down previous owner of vehicle?

    My restoration is an 85 110. It would be interesting to the original owner I'm sure to see what's happening with the LR. I don't need anything from original owner only that if it was me I would definitely find it interesting to see a few photos. I have a dealership name on the licence plate...

    Does anyone know if these replacement panels exist? I'm after the inside panel for the top of the bulkhead replacing the left vent and just below down to that square hole. These two panels only replace the outside...

    lt77 gearbox selector housing

    Is it supposed to have that notch in it? Does it look worn? I would have thought it needs to be straight. It's the same on the other side. I'm not getting 1st, 3rd and 4th. It seems to go into 2nd, 5th and reverse but the engine still cuts out like it's in gear even when it's in neutral. I...

    Is my gearbox fubar'd? [Video]

    In order to run the engine I have to keep the clutch down. It seems to be in neutral and it feels like it might be going Into reverse and possibly a few other gears. I'm not sure it's going down into 2nd and 4th. Diff also seems to be stuck in neutral. 1986 110

    LR 90/110 pre defender question

    I didn't realise their was a pre defender 90 or 110. Am I right in saying that their is a LR defender 110 as well as a LR 110? I've always refered to mine as a defender 110 but it's probably just a 110. I can't see the word "defender" on the log book. Mine is a 22.11.85 n/a diesel.

    Chassis metal thicknesses?

    I've got a few small spots that need cutting out. They don't look too major at the moment but I would rather deal with it now whilst the tub is of the frame. What thickness sherry metal do I need and where is the best place to order it?

    LR running (video)

    86 110 N/A Finally have it running after changing the starter motor to a bearmach model, new battery (one that is technically under powered but will do for now) and cleaning up the earth contacts. Sweeping broom on the clutch pedal is to make the engine turn over with less friction. No idea...

    LR soft top security?

    Have you found any hacks or modifications to make a soft top more secure? Any good steering wheel lock recommendation? Immobilizer? Alarm? I was thinking earlier that a metal box bolted or welded to the tub would provide you with a good place to keep shopping bags and tools. Another idea was...
