Well not sure at the moment. Original plan was to bobtail it, fit 35" tyres and turn it into a serious offroader. But the time and money involved and the fact I really want to build my Astra this year and get a morgage means I may just leave it as it is and use it as a daily and a tow car. Then I'll break Tiny once the tax runs out in May.

Got till the end of next month when the tax runs out on the 3 door to decide.
 
Well new Landy is off the road for a few days. Changed the coolant today and after taking it for a test drive and having Mike check it over we are 99% sure the headgasket has gone. Mate reckoned it overheated a few days ago so must have been what caused it.
Gonna whip the head off tomrrow and check the blocks ok and asuming it is just change the gasket and everything will be well again.
Anyone know if I need to change the head bolts aswell?
 
Good Morning all!!

finally, touch wood, an absolutly **** few months have come to an end and I'm back in the game. apologies for my delayed abscence!

Hope everyone is well, what have I missed?!!

I'm expecting someone down on Saturday to pick up some bits that will render my Landy, unroadworthy.
