Thank you for the advise, I suspected that I'd have to remove the dash top it's selve to do it to be honest. I plan on removing the original foam as it's hard and probably easier to reform the whole thing. Thanks -Maxim

I am looking to retrim the dashboard top in my series 3, it has a lot of cracking and holes, the dash bottom is in pretty good condition and doesn't need redoing. unfortunately I am away and can't take the measurements needed to order some leather/vinyl and foam. Could anyone with easy access...

sorry for slow reply, where abouts are you based for the collection if still available and the price for them?

what size are the tyres please and assuming that would be a collection item?

I'll try get some pictures soon and post them in here.

It's got a R380 gearbox and 300TDI so only the small lever, I'll try get some time to grab some pictures, also going to get a friend of mine who knows a lot about them to have a look and see what is actually under there haha

Rear left wheel Has resistance yeah, will bribe the farther to have a look, thanks everyone.

It's permanent 4 wheel drive now. Have checked the speed using 4 of them signs that light up with your speed as you approach them and seems right. Okey thank you, so if I jacked it up leaving the rear right on the floor it should spin and check the drums, Thabk you

So today I had my landy on stands to paint the wheels all at the same time, before I took them off I decided to run it while it was in the air. We noticed that the rear left wheel starts to turn and then stopped, under gentle throttle in first it rolls with the rest but then stops. The landy has...

I don't think there is any series wiring left... Its going to be interesting to learn as I attempt to fix it. But tell then its only getting driven on good clear days.

Finally I am back home after being away since January and was able to go and pick up the Landy that I bought with out inspecting what so ever... 1974 series 3 with a 300TDI and some defender (ninety?) parts, bonnet, front grill, doors, engine. This is my first Land rover so it is clearly a...

not exactly sure how I missed that....

Hello and welcome.

I plan on replacing the seats and seat belts, will probably keep the doors as they are once the broken trim part is replaced.

it was more of a "PTE your doing this, but Sir I am not exactly a good swimmer, well you will learn" that said it was amazing and I would definitely do it again especially now that i can swim alot better.

indeed it is, I sailed around the UK with the Army for the battle of the somme commemoration a few years ago.

exactly the reason I decided to take the offer, perfect first project to learn from, fairly available parts and simple, the interchangeability is one of the many things I like about them. -Maxim

The huge mismatch of parts meant it was cheap... but thank you for the heads up on that. and yeah its like 50/50 Series 3 and Defender, its going to be a intresting project. thanks for the offer I wont be back in the UK for a few more months yet. -Maxim

you can have it if you like, it will be getting thrown down the back of the garden once its been taken out.

I am leaving the 300TDI in yes, I am not all that worried about being original as such but a series should look like a series, yeah its got bits from all over the place and as far as I am aware it got 5 gears and I don't know about about the permanent drive ill have to ask, its all kinda hard...
