Just another bit of info...this has synchro. I believe original S2s didn't have synchromesh boxes?

I have mate! Cheers!

Thanks Rob, all of this confirms my doubts about it. I've raised the issue with the seller who immediately became very defensive and admitted the S3 dash which then raises the question about his low mileage claims. Yes, it's a very old vehicle but a modicum of honesty wouldn't go amiss. The big...

That's what confused me as it's originally registered in 1969 (G plate) which would make it a late S2a. The asking price is 4.3k but needs a fair bit of work although the pics look decent it's full of filler and then hand roller painted. Rear Xmember needs replacing but rest of chassis is okay...

Thanks for confirming my suspicion.

This is advertised as a 1969 S2a. I thave an inkling that it's an S3. Can any of you very experienced chaps shed any light? Cheers

The thing! :confused: C'mon TM...pick it up mate! :rolleyes:

I don't mind doing it, dab here and a dab there. I'm no cheap skate either. :p

Me, it's Brill! :D

That happened to ours as well...still stunned! o_O

Please be careful and gird your loins before hand :eek:

Depends how far we're going. anything over 5 miles and you can't get in the back for support equipment. Sorta like Thunderbird 2 without the pod ;)

Probably need one of these to complete the job as well ;) .

I couldn't think of a better last lift....Good job it's not a 90

I intend to hold on to my Defender because I love owning, driving and repairing the bloody thing when it goes wrong and not because I want to make a few quid out of it. I couldn't give a toss what the resale market value is. No disrespect intended of course :)

Not a lot different over here nowadays!

Says it all really!

We park over a rubber mat on our drive. I think our '91 Defender had a whole 6 weeks leak free back in 2014 and unless it's p*ssing out then you get used to it as long as you check levels regularly. Saturday this last week was a pool of fluid from a leak in the high pressure line from the pas...

Don't think anyone's mentioned this but you'll need a bloody good vice... then again, we all have one of those or you wouldn't have asked the question in the first place! ;)

Don't get 'im started! :rolleyes:
