    What have you done to your Landie today.

    Replaced the radiator as the old one sprung a leak. Hate aftermarket parts...new one was 1cm too high and 1cm too wide. Needed holes drilling for shroud and none of the side fixing holes matched the original. I avoided Britpart and chose Allmakes instead hoping for a reasonable quality product...

    A Few Pictures From Amberley Classic Land Rovers Oct 14 2018

    Great photos, thanks for posting them. I was due to go to Tilford event, woke up to very heavy rain at 7.30 and forecast was for solid rain all day. Recovering from a throat infection and decided a day in the rain probably wouldn't do me any favours. Put the heater on and spent the day in the...

    Series 3 1983 series 3 Bulkhead restoration

    A replacement galvanised bulkhead from can be bought from Ashtree Land Rover. That's what I decided to do with mine to hopefully last my lifetime.

    Are you looking for a footwell to be welded in? A patch or two or a removal and full refurb / exchange?

    Agreed value insurance

    I think mine is insured for £10k ish if I remember correctly with Flux. They will be asking for new photos and all that malarkey again soon.

    Newbury autojumble & vintage 30th Sept

    Seemed to thin out early too. I reckon half the buyers left by about 12.30. Enjoyed myself though, always a good day out.

    Newbury autojumble & vintage 30th Sept

    I suppose it depends on what you call 'good'. :rolleyes: I bought a set of NOS ex Dutch army glow plugs (pig tail type) for £10 10 rolls of Sellotape for £1, another milk churn and a castrol oil bottle. So, not much Landy related stuff unless I decide to fasten it together with Sellotape :D I...

    Newbury autojumble & vintage 30th Sept

    I usually find some trophy on the day. Aside from Landy stuff I've been known to take hope a milk churn or two, a rear of train guard paraffin lamp to restore to name a couple. Let's see where this year takes me. I swerved the one earlier this year due to very wet weather, I suspect others did...

    Series 3 Diesel recon engines

    If I were in that position I would trust Turner Engineering. Good reputation.

    I need a valuation urgently

    The Landy with the crumpet on it is definitely worth more than the one without. I know that much.

    Steering Relay Oil

    Often wondered if it would be possible to fill from the bottom somehow and force the air out of the top. I've always found that I can only fill with a few drips at a time and It takes a day or two. I do it as a little fill in job around other chores / maintenance.

    Son missing

    I’ve just stumbled across this thread. As a father of two, I’m devastated to read this, Brian. The shock, the pain... I can only try to imagine what you’re going through. I wish peace to you all.

    clutch question

    I thought the spiggot bush had to be soaked in ep90 a couple of days? Might be wrong....thought is was made up of a type of bronze whick could absorb a little oil.
