    It most like will be. I wanted to enjoy it more on the road but it looks like a complete strip down is on my horizon.

    All the advice has been helpful. The pass few days the weather has been good and I spent a fair amount of time evaluating my project. It looks like it worst than I thought. The more you look ...reality becomes clearer. Most of the chassis has had a hack repair done at some point and the rest is...

    Thanks Lynall, the moisture and rust issue never acured to me. Before I dig it and take a look is there any other area that might have a rusty surprise waiting for me that I'll have to address it before using the welder?

    I actually do have a mig welder. Although it's been quite a while since I've made an attempt to use it.

    Not being a welder, yet, why would 3mm be easier than 2mm? Heat distortion of the thinner metal? There's a metal store almost right in the neighborhood so obtaining what I need shouldn't be a problem.

    Electronic ignition problem

    Well, problem solved... defective coil wire. Absolutely nothing to do with the electronic ignition. Seems I was too quick to blame new technology. Miktdish, thanks for the help.

    Electronic ignition problem

    Thank you Miktdish for your input. To be honest, a lot of your statement was beyond my knowledge of understanding this subject. The Landy came with this setup, no idea it's age or it's shelf life. Especially after all the effort in testing and it sounds like a quality of effort will be needed...

    Electronic ignition problem

    Hello everyone I was moving my Landy around in the driveway with difficulty getting it started. After I succeed and wanted to return it, it's refused to start. After checking what I could I did a spark check on the plugs...no spark at all. The tool manufacturer suggested this was an ignition...

    Double mounts

    That makes a lot of sense. I know the previous owner used it hunting, camping etc. Also it has the same type of brackets welded to the rear bumper. A plausible answer for brackets would be some kind of home make rack system. Thanks for the help.

    Double mounts

    It welded to windshield sash side. Maybe it was almost a good idea for a mirror at one time. Just had me nervous it was some kind of Frankenstein bulkhead refit

    Can any tell me or think of a reason my series 3 has both style of wind shield mounts. I never noticed till watched a video about the differences between a 2 and a 3. From what I can tell...I have a 3 bulkhead.
