First Land Rover Ive ever had so Im a bit of a sponge soaking up
as much info as possible.
Needs total rebuild,been used as a trialer for some years and
has been stood for 10 years until I picked it up from a mate for
nothing.
Going to put it back on the road so Im in the process of a
complete strip,weld chassis,bulkhead,etc, etc,you name it,it
needs it!!
I believe its called a challenge....baptism of fire more like
it!

Welcome and best of luck. Got my first series Land Rover in the
autumn and now have my teeth into a complete strip and rebuilt,
this and the a couple of other land rover series forums and
their members have been invaluable. As is a good workshop guide/
greenbible to follow

Nice project.
Need any bits? I've got doors etc here and a mate down the round
with lots of other bits too.
Just as a thought if you are planning on going soft top the rear
part of the roll bar is a handy safety addition :thumbs:
Good luck!
