My first season living in wilshire I put a lot of time in at Lacock. Believe it or not, it’s actually starting to recover quite well there and an 11 came out in autumn. Again, didn’t renew my ticket as was just getting annoyed with poachers, littering and dogs. I shouldn’t have been so grumpy and spent the summer eves up there! I follow a guy on YouTube who fishes the teme a lot - he does well for barbel - think that rivers on the up again now too!! Seems you have moved about more than me ha! France will likely be a goer - I’m also going to do a southwest road trip with the dog and rods. If there’s anything I’ve learnt from lockdown it’s get in the car and go and explore!!

@resto_d1 I did have a telescopic fly rod behind the seat of the LR. I would walk the Thames all round cricklade & catch chub on the fly. If you saw me it would look like I was throwing a stick.
I’m sure in the shed I have split cane fly rods
Have you seen carp on the fly? Cracking fun for the insane

was looking as there’s a fly carp lake in Wales that I want to go to! I have a split Cane salmon rod. Looks like it got damaged in storage but believe it was my mums grandads. I’m going to try and do an oem rebuild on it lol. If you stop using cane it loses its flex - if that rod hooked into a salmon now it would split into pieces. Will look nice on my gun and fishing room though when I finally have it ha

Got the middle seat in but not bolted down yet, does anyone know the bolt size? I’m thinking M8 x40 with nylocks and washers, together with 4 x m8 x 10 spacers?
looks nice.
i had to put bolts up from below and lock with 2 nuts to give me studs to drop my middle seat onto.
i opened my 90 and the 110 both of which are located in the workshop looking for my electrical toolbox to fix Missus Skoda estate indicator seat repeater.
Bloody wires were snapped not sure if it was chafing due to driving down the track to farm or rodent related.
Bloody bugger to do.
I then laid under the 110 4c at the barn where i live, to see if i could bleed the clutch so i could tow start it however hadn't got right size with me as all tools in back of 90
took some pics of the chassis instead...

I thought my chassis was bad! Good luck with that.
To repair mine, I tried welding in new dumb irons and found out that the chassis was paper thin. Wasted a few quid before deciding on swapping the chassis.

Luckily the 110 4c was the one we had to have as part of the deal on the three.
My mates and mine are good, just this one...

Cleaned up preety well and in good order body wise
just needs either patching or chassis plus and outrigger and windscreen wipers to work
Would be a good project for someone, all original i believe not been messed with

Looks good. Wish I had the time and space to have a go at bringing her back to best.
hopefully someone will fancy it and bring it back too life going to try and get it running first before i advertise it for sale.
Got the log book yesterday only 3 owners from new, first was coal board.
Got an interesting storage in the back will post pics tomorrow.
Today i have tried to fit new wiper cable and wheelboxes to my 110 project
https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/potential-110-project.365519/
and tried to start 90 have meddled with pump timing again and again today, got f~~~d off took shotgun and dog out to chase pheasants.
got more F#####d off saw a big bloody fox but not safe to have a go.
Came back removed timing belt and started with timing pump again. was way out, had to remove the outer pulley to get enough adjustment
then my cut down long probe for DTI got dropped back by a mate and now seems to fit and hold better in adapter
retimed pump, refitted pulley checked again, belt on tomorrow morning hopefully and see what happens..

Drove & towed for a friend
fitted another Fuel Injector Pump to my 90
turns out that is fecked as well..
So wasted my morning, checking the pump timing etc and fiting it the belt etc
Stripped my 110 Os hub and swivel ready to fit the new seal kit.
Fitted my new wiper cable tube. cables runs loads free, however it still blows fuses, but when wiper motor is run without cable it works fine, think it is breaking down under pressure. drop it at a mates for him to give it some TLC.
Fitted a winter tyre from 90 to my 110 to see what they sit like
