I need a bulkhead! RHD S3, preferrably in reasonable or restored condition.

The smoke has finally cleared from the water - RIP John Lord. Dammit, why do all my heroes keep dying!

Anyone think they're insured with these guys? 'cos you're not. Seems they've been pocketing the premiums without providing any cover. Bastards.

My wife (who works for the CAB) noticed this the other day :- New penalties for owners of uninsured vehicles : Directgov - Motoring It means that your vehicle now has to be insured if it's not SORNed.

I have searched the forum but haven't found an answer to this one. Is the lower dash panel (the bit with the heater duct and control flaps) on a Defender similar enough to a series 3 to fit? Some of the parts suppliers imply that it will but I want to know if anyone has actually done this...

I've just finished my steering box on the S3. Pollen count is too high to do much on the rest of the rebuild, I'm wheezing like a 95 year old so I sat in the garden and slowly assembled the box. It's a fiddly job but not too hard - the difficult bit was obtaining the parts. They're mostly...

I'm re chassising my old S3 and I decided it's about time I have a proper VIN plate made up - my number is stamped on a bit of scrap ally plate pop rivitted to the bulkhead and the number on the chassis is long gone. The problem is my V5 has a chassis number which doesn't make sense. There's...

Once the current ice age ends I'm hoping to re-chassis my swb S3. I intend to strip it to a rolling chassis with bulkhead and then remove the engine and gearbox in one lump, sort the bulkhead insitu before swapping it to the new rolling chassis and then drop the engine/gbox back in. I've no idea...
