Hi everyone, sorry I've not been able to do more posts up to this point...been to busy rebuilding landrovers! So since the last post we've stripped my 1994 110 CSW and found some 'interesting' stuff. Mud from when Oasis when in the charts, more rust than actual chassis, a one pound coin from...

Ok so I've spent a riotous Saturday evening in making a full list of parts I need to get this project done in the 3 week target, I've left out some glaringly obvious stuff like doors, hinges because I can do that any time after the re chassis and re build is done... here goes.. Fuel tank parts...

I've just re read your post and answered my own question haha

Very interesting, so if aluminium is so close to mild steel and high strength steel why does it rot so badly? Also everyone, I've had a long email conversation with YRM and they say that stainless steel is just as strong as high tensile steel so long as you get the right one so now I guess it's...

Ok so I'm trying to get a quote together from YRM, But I'm not quite sure how to describe the black bar in your photo and the brackets that you can get in HDG, any pointers? Cheers

More updates, I've ordered the chassis loom, about £100 from autosparks, BARGAIN! I was expecting £400+

Yeah the front wing I managed to get a new panel off eBay, £138 new and genuine landrover.. as for the holes, yeah I was thinking of patching somehow.. getting some aluminium filler and maybe back it with glass fibre or anything that's bloody sticky.. I defiantly wanna put galvanised capping and...

Here's some photos of him in his current state

Also the outerwings have seen better days..I really don't wanna buy tub wings so is there anyway I can repair them? I thought about backing them with glass fibre then car body filler on the top before I respray it but I'm not sure they'll stand the test of time..ideally my not yet born, not yet...

Ok so I'll get galv under supports and new aluminium 'top hat' supports,... so the brackets on the chassis, what are they called? And get I get galv ones anywhere? I'd be happy to get parts acid dripped and galvanised if the lead time was less then a week haha

Great, so where would you suggest using stainless steel? Bumper, rear cross member? Prop shafts? Cheers! Adam
