It’s been a while since I rebuilt my series3 https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/series-3-swb-nut-and-bolt-rebuild.368569/ since then I’ve been looking for my next project. The criteria was quite simple, it had to be a Landrover and registered on Anglesey, how hard could it be ………

If the post title didnt give it a way, yup you may have guessed by now that I have found, purchased and collected a defender 90 registered from nowhere else other than the birth place of Mr Wilks’ dream Anglesey or should I say Ynys Mon ! Let the hammering, swearing and sweating begin…. And yes before you ask in that order

I downloaded the imgur app,
add photos to it from your phone gallery, copy the url of the image,
Then press the little chain link icon (or whatever it is) on the top line (to the right of the 'A') and paste the text into the box.

Now let's see that rust bucket, lol
