if its going to be there permanently, why not just wire it in permanently? this is what I would do or perhaps with bullet connectors or owt like so it can be disconnected if nessecary

:5blurk5:

please dont go, knoblet. your threads are far too amusing http://www.landyzone.co.uk/lz/f16/goodyear-wrangler-tyres-230966.html

oh. was this me? http://www.landyzone.co.uk/lz/f16/michelin-tyres-230956.html my bad :hysterically_laughi

dunno. I prefer black ones, they go faster.

that is brilliant :hysterically_laughi

mate took his S2 to mot yesterday morning, on the way there the clutch went :rolleyes: on my car the nearside motor factor CV boot has split right before the mot, and again immediately after every mot retest since I've had it, but no problems for the 11 months in between.

that not what '50th anniversary' means. that is simply the trim level they introduced when land rover reached 50 years old :rolleyes:

i'd quite fancy a ragtop D1 or RRC if it was done better than that. the first FB pic I looked at and thought hmm ... maybe? but then I slapped myself. hard. It is just wrong. the colour of the roof is just wrong, the shape is just wrong, the whole thing is a big lump of wrong ... fair play for...

yes you do; using a cold chisel as a hot chisel will feck the temper and it'll no longer be a cold chisel, just a soft useless lump ;)

have a wriggle underneath and check for play, nice day to do it!

prop shaft/UJ?

I dimly remember seeing that atrocity on pistonheads quite a while ago. iirc it was owned by a young chap with far far too much money. his other car was a rolls royce phantom.

HAHAHAHA might just have to :hysterically_laughi

found the chassis! it was left there about 5 or 6 years ago and completely forgotten where it was put! buried in the weeds. haven't dragged it out yet, but it still seems fairly sound started removing the valves in the motor and its all coming to pieces surprisingly easily atm.

spares are out there, but not nessecarily easy to come by there is no body work yet, that hasn't been decided, though for those of you who don't know what a vintage Dodge Four looks like, it would have originally resembled this:

its 90 odd years old! if my 200tdi looks that good in 90 years after being removed and sat outside unprotected for forever, I'd be chuffed :D most of the big end nuts and those holding the crankshaft undid with relative ease. nothing broke yet. It WILL live again. watch this space ;)

this isn't a land rover, but I thought this might be of interest to some people. The aim of the project is to build a vintage car for hillclimbing/racing and eventually make it the fastest in its class. the car will date back to the early 1900s so all parts and components with the exception of...

none are 'new' ads. top one, as said was fanboy crap, and poor quality video and posted in 2007, so not exactly new by any stretch of the imagination second one I do like, but it was also posted in 2007 and its a D3 ... the world has moved on to D4 now and the third one is also of a 2007...

a firm I worked for for many years had 2 - an auto and a manual. the auto was mostly sound, though there were issues, it was nowhere near as bad as the manual. this one was in the garage under warranty more than it was on the road. the handbrake disintegrated and locked up the wheels when it was...
