Not a V8 but a little boody all the same

Post by Bumpkin »

Hi chaps
Just thought i'd let you see my latest aquisition.
Bought this on E-Bay unseen. Got there picked it up and away i went.
Long story short. Got an MOT with a little welding and a new slave cylinder. .The best part is when i went to tax it.FREE!!! A plate, hows that u ask. The truck was a Lifeguard vehicle. Lifeboat haulage!!!. Beauty!!! With an overdrive.[img][img]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v201/ ... C00278.jpg[/img][/img]

Its on the cards. I have another Stage 1 here i'm not quite sure what to do with.What worries me is the rear prop linkage.The angle is acute. Anyone got a piccy of the SWB Stage 1 rear prop assembly.

Gone2far can make you a prop to suit the acute angle. I had a pair off them and although expensive they know their land rovers
