Re: Gumtree again

More from scumtree. I think the waffle translates to he bought it for a song and now wants to pay off his house in one hit. https://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/wynnum/cars-vans-utes/landrover-1980-series-3-stage-1-3-9l-isuzu-diesel-utility/1280906407?utm_source=criteo&utm_medium=retargeting&utm...

Re: Restoration

but does anyone have a reliable wiring diagram for UK spec 1981 model year 109V8 Stage 1? :lol: Sorry. Nope. Imagine how hard it was with the military version in NZDF where they "adapted" things to suit. Even birds would turn their beak up at the mess in my binnacle :wink: From the photos...

..thank you but don't overdo it.
Ahh but the burble of a V8 stirs the heart! :lol:

I have no idea what the folder is :?:

However, there are few builds that would come as close, and I am certain it is better now than it was new. So credit where it is due.

Re: some exotic Stage 1 in Germany

Completed the right front fender. The trained eye immediately recognizes that there is one missing "Nothing", so a hole! :) Heating wasn't really necessary for Dubai. Therefore there is no hole where you can suck in air. It is more likely that it is off a LHD vehicle? Ours do not have hol...

Re: some exotic Stage 1 in Germany

It reminds me of the cross member I made to replace the bulldozer blade under the transmission. I wish the original manufacturer had taken so much care, but then I would never have been able to afford the one I have :lol: Come to think of it, I need to keep mine because I cannot afford to buy one no...
