Re: Hello from Northumberland
Hello Chris. Not far from Blanchland. Drove it to Leeds and Back today to look at a series 3 truck cab roof for sale..It was nice but not £280 nice so I will bide my time. The Defender rear cab on mine is very rattly. Can these be removed and just glazed with a rubber and single piece of glass..I ha...

Re: Hello from Northumberland
The first thing that hits me with the picture is that I must have a later truck cab. The sliding window looks different on mine..More like a 90/110 defender type ? I also am on the look out for the galvy tilt fittings but don't want to spend a fortune on new ones..I will keep an eye on e-bay etc.

Re: Hello from Northumberland
Nope. No headlining..Just a tin top with signs of bitumen on the inner surface. Gearbox much noisier than I would have liked but these things are 30 odd years old so It will be nice to sympathetically bring it back to good health. Plan is to give it a good service and oils then get it through the wi...

Re: Hello from Northumberland
Its a 1982. I suspect originally white? Would be good to get into another stage 1 to compare noise, I will change oils, suspect EP has been used in main box. Fairey overdrive is jumping out but have been told that this could be adjustment on the linkage? It just seems very noisy and the release bear...
