Great pics Ben! Very similar to my Basil.

Looks good.:cool:

So, what have you got planned for her?

[Outlaw]

Will be good to see it out on a run Ben... coming along nice :D

Great pics Ben. :D

Plans are to continue driving the old girl as often as possible while refining all the mechanics, and then look at the asthetics..

I have already swapped the smoky old deisel for a 2.25 petrol, replaced all those lovely sacraficial allow plugs in the head, all new wheel cylinders and master cylinder, and changed the carbi from an old Stronberg to a webber, it has a lot more manners with the Webber...

I have a couple of Ex Mil 109 restos on the go, but I find the rolling resto easier.:)

The plan is to learn on the SWB, and then attack the Ex Mil with gusto:cool:

Great Landy, Ben, and absolutely beautiful country!

Will be good to see more pics as it progresses.

Also, just a hint with photobucket: if you copy the text out of the box marked "Image Code" (the bottom box under the pic) and paste it in the thread, it will show up as the picture instead of a link. ;)


Like thus:

Mucho bettero! :D

I like your lift-on / lift-off gear rack on the back!

[GSKeeper]

Yes, Shonky,

It keeps all the gear a lot tidier off road (and quieter).

The Inter boys will recognise the chain box, I have a matching pair and I beleive they are of Mk3 or Mk4 Army Internationals....
