So fuel tank breather pipe leak all done, used a alu sheet n RTV to fix in place.
V impressed with Halfords "land rover Epsom Green paint" just a spur of the moment thing thought i would give it go, just need to scalpel off the excess RTV, then final coat and lacquer.
Only thing is guess i am going to have to re paint rear interior now !
I would never drop the tank to fit a fuel pump, this was much easier even though it was just the breather etc,

about an inch all round and the colour!
the larger being the weimy, other than that they are indectical pretty much in every way
Both are HPR (hunt point and retieve)
One was bread by the duke of weimar in Germany the other by his equivalent in Hungary, both seeking the best HPR, allegedly there was a friendly rivalry amongst the aristocracy around who would breed the best, what we see now is the result, may not be true but certainly both came about around the same time etc, and anyway why let the truth ruin a good story!

Nah, not at all mate, good call but no bueno this time is all!Way off then
They all look the same when they a pupsta, happens all the time our adult male Viszla does get a ridge line when he spots something, etc.
I have had people say in the woods they did not think it was legal to have a ridgeback, or is that a ridge back more times than i can remember.
his ridge comes and goes, but a Rhodesion Ridgeback is more or less permanent and just gets bigger if you **** him off!
Ridgebacks have a fuller and bigger head and are a bit chunkier all round, personally I would not want to get on the wrong side of either breed!
heres a ridgeback,

Tanked a blokes inspection pit at his 18th century farm and outbuildings a few years ago. They kept horses and had 3 ridgebacks running free. Lovely dogs, the youngest was about 18months and loved fruit pastilles
chap I used to work with had 1, he cried when it died Never heard they're illegal though

Justr reading @bankz5152 and @1988smithy trials and trails, and remembering my Euro pillage and plunder tour road trip a good few years back, Algared nr Hudiksvall Northern Sweden, AKA Corfe I did it in this!
Bonus point if you can identify the make /model / and year within 3 either way?
Sold it to a great guy from the Bermuda rally team (yep very random and yep as in the triangle) they shipped it over I understand, It was on their website a while back.....
It was very very fast, designed to go balls out across the desert, certainly surprised a few peeps at the lights.
3.5L V6 race tuned, leaves a Porsche Cayenne etc for dust at the lights, for 1750kg (50kg more than a Cayenne S) so not bad!
Borg Warner auto 4x4 drive system.
Really wish I kept it.....
