    1984 90 whats it worth?

    The only person who knows whether to sell or not is you. Do you need to sell or not? If not, I’d keep it. It sounds like a decent condition Landy that has been looked after. Early landies are going for good money. The strongest prices are for original spec ones but a Tdi conversion is still...

    Can anyone reccomend a sand blasting setup

    Let us know how you get on. I’m looking at getting my wheels done. I was going to find a company to do it locally but haven’t ruled out doing it myself.

    Shot-blasting steel wheels

    A friend made similar comments about powder coating on steel wheels after issues with his. Rather than take a chance on the quality of powder coating, I’ll probably go for paint. I’ll see if I can get the wheels shot-blasted locally and will probably paint them myself. Thanks for the...

    Shot-blasting steel wheels

    Thanks both. I’ll look into it. I’m still open to other’s recommendations and suggestions.

    Shot-blasting steel wheels

    I’ve got a set of four steel wolf wheels to go on my 90. They’re in reasonable condition although there is surface rust coming through. Before I fit the tyres from my existing rims, I’m contemplating refurbishing the new wheels. I’m thinking of shot-blasting the rims and repainting in white...

    Defender 1986 fuel tank leak

    I bought a replacement tank for my series 3 some years ago from a well known Landy parts supplier. It was one of the 90 style tanks and not the original spec series tanks so had a seam around the centre. The first time I filled it, I lost half the fuel as the seam had not been sealed so be aware...

    Looks like a good selection of lanes. Great video too. What area of Hampshire did you go?

    Hampshire Green Lane Trip 11th August.

    Looking forward to the video as always. Can the local GLASS rep help with getting the lanes cleared, either by a volunteer group or better still, by the council?

    Hi I've been registered for some time but this is my first question

    Hi and welcome! Probably best to ask the question in the defender section where it will more likely get a reply.

    Pig

    Looks good! The front passenger footwell looks a bit crusty but I’m sure it’ll clean up ok. The rest looks good. A workhorse and not a show pony!

    Tow points

    Bin the tie down points. They are not for recovery. Jate rings are easily fitted and rated for the task. Fit one each side.

    My new Landy project

    I was in Somerset and Wilts when I lived in Somerset. I’ve rejoined Cheltenham and Cotswolds LRC as they’re the most local and a couple of their trial sites are quite local.
