Well thats it she has been dropped off at Strathearn engineering .......... lots of sleepless nights whether it is the right decision as it is going to come to a lot of money however i think in the long run i will be glad i did it its just for now its terrifying!!!

Just spoke to Ben at Blackpaw he said £8,250:eek: definitely do not have that much to spend on it!!! I will definitely be setting a budget with Strathearn which was their suggestion they seem to be a decent lot that understand my pockets aren't that deep!

I know, i know i have opened a can of worms and you cant put a price on it the same for every vehicle......... but it has taken me 3 years to get to where i am and we have just started a new family and a new business so time is at a premium, i would just like to get her to a state where she will...

I know but the way I look at it I have already spent a lot on it to get it where it is Gearbox rebuilt Engine refurbished Chassis galvanised & painted New suspension All new brake components And all put together If I don’t get it finished soon it will all seize and rust up so just get on...

I have had enough, just bit the bullet and booked it into Strathearn engineering to have it finished thats it coming up to 3 years now and i want to drive it before i die!!!

had a smiddy weld up my bulk head with new footwells and a couple of replacement pieces for the top around the vents and now it is a bolt hole out when i try and put it on!!!! :eek::eek::eek: Can i pull it out at the bottom or is there a better way?? please help i haven't done anything to the...

https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/series-wings-inner-outer.323482/ I have been looking too

Looks like your doing great work there, don’t loose momentum it’s hard to get going again ! I haven’t touched mine since June...... we fell out

??

I did see those but they are for a series 1 and don’t look like the same shape as a series 3

My trouble is it is all crumpled and smashed not sure how it happened, my main worry is getting the fixing points in the right place. Has anyone got any dimensions or even better some diagrams?

I wasn’t meaning the mud shield I was meaning the engine bay side of the front wing, all I can find is the front panel where the lights are fitted and the outer side skin in plastic or aluminium. One of my inner wings was a bit chewed up when I took it off, might end up having to make one if...

Thanks James, determined to get the old timer back together and running by my daughters first birthday in June 2018 fingers crossed

been trawling the inter webs looking for series 3 inner wing panels for the front wings but no one seems to do them. Has anyone come across them or have a good source for the other front wing components?

James do you think I will manage to fit the clip with a set of long nose pliers?

rebuilding my series 3 from the ground up its at rolling chassis stage with engine and gearbox fitted and it was not the most fun of jobs sticking the 2 together and I have gone and left the push rod and clip for the slave cylinder off! Can I fit it through that whole where the cylinder fits or...

To replace the brakes you don’t have to remove the central hub just remove the springs holding the top of the brake shoe and pull em off

You can see the near side engine mount in that picture, I will get more pictures tomorrow if the cross members etc and find out if they will let me take it all away for tidying up the rest!

The dumb irons on the chassis look similar to the ones on my series 3 chassis rather than the one in your photo, I will maybe sneak back up tomorrow and take more photos, any particular areas that would help identify it?
