Looks majestic! Very interesting walkaround in your youtube video - nice detail about the spec of the components, it shows how these vehicles may not begin unique but they certainly become unique over the years.

Love the commentary - 'Gordon Bennett that's heavy'. And the cascade of tools and loose components as the rear cover is lifted off. Pretty much the same sort of thing as happens to me.

Cheers - yes she is 'majestic' in the way only a 20 foot long Landy can be!!

I'm trying to put as much detail into the videos as possible without making them dull... I think handy tips and tricks and interesting info is the way to go with it

Hahaha that made me chuckle... we tend to get a bit excited and rush stuff sometimes... hence the 'polite expletives' and occasional foul treatment of tools!

Really enjoyed these two episodes. Hopefully there'll be more to come!

And I am very jealous of your workshop!
