It worked! dead easy to change, even if it was 9pm, pitch black (bar torch light) and -3c!

Thanks for all the help and welcomes, I think i'll stick about!
 
Uber bump!

Rather than make a new post I thought I'd just bring up this one again. Unfortunately the '86 110 has retired from running life (not that its unfixable £500 to a good home :p ) so I have invested in a '91 200tdi Defender which is like totally different beast, it has a punch and doesn't leak oil, so I'm not entirely sure its a defender!

Anyway, later this year I would love to take it 'lanning and wondered if any of you TOSSERS would mind taking a 100% novice as a tag along at some point? (I already PM'd Grippa but thought its probably better to appeal to the group as a whole)

:D
 
It'll take a while to format a whole list, but the main parts are:
Bulkheads are going
Chassis is going I think (its hard to tell as an ancient undercoating is now flaking away)
The camber on the nearside front is buggered (not horrendously but its not a good thing!)
A seal has gone on the nearside rear which results in the rear rim being coated in oil
no exhaust from the midsection back

:/

Cheers for the re-welcome. I'll have a butchers for that BBQ thread
 
You wouldn't want my defender mate, its got no tax or MOT either, for a first time set of big wheels, its awful (brilliant if you want a big project though)
 
Bigger bump than a knocked up fat bird!

I've been gone for a while, mostly due to new house, new kid, new job but most importantly... NEW LANDY!

My white defender was just costing too much to do anything with, so with a little (a lot) of help from my Dad, I've acquired meself this lovely thing:

I had the place do some work to it before they delivered it, so I'll post some updated pics later, but just wanted to say.. I'M BACK!! :D
 
Actually mate its from Gristhill's in Surrey. I'll be taking it to Gott's for servicing etc.

Didn't get a chance to tinker today so will post up pic tomorrow instead! :D
