Hi All,
New here with a Series 3 Landy which I am currently rebuilding
from Galvanized chassis and Bulkhead upwards.......
So no doubt I will have questions!
Cheers Steve

Hi Jonny,
The chassis was so rotten at the front of the rear spring
hangers, I am surprized it hadn't snapped in half,
and there were some very dodgy repairs on it elsewhere involving
plates stuck on with seam sealer and undersealed over :(
And the bulkhead was in a sorry state too.....
Full report to follow in a new thread coming soon 8)

some bodges defy belief. The amount of filler in the bulkhead
and pillars i found in mine was crazy
