Kinda feel bad as you put a lot of effort in the last visit.

May be next visit we should take a 7600 acre tour first with a few coldies

You would be amazed what has been through the work shop since you were here
Not a single Rover amazingly They all are dead other than the 89 Rangie, the 120", the 4.4 two door and the injured Disco.

Even though not much needs to be spent here the lack of "my" time seems to be the hold up with this one

Glad you didn't cry out for "Pimp my ride"

Wonder what the Rangie would look like if Chip Foose got to it Would end up some other shape with 22" chrome rims Poor buggers have probably never worked with alloy before let alone a pommy job

hahah , I got no more holidays left I tried putting for 2 weeks long service and it got knocked back.

Yep a tour of the place would be good on the next visit , never got a chance to leave the Shed did we ???

Well you all will believe this when you see it but finally the Rangie is coming in for the duration of the long list of mods as have now got the Mitsu back on the road Gear box input bearing? and have got rid of a few other problems. Not all though

One thing about the old rangie, it may have a few problems now but can still drive it. The brakes are getting ordinary as the swivel leak so may as well get into the rest of it.

What next on the agenda? cant wait to see the transformation.
Really keen to know how your supercharger goesconsidering putting one on top the 4.6, but might see how it goes when i get it back first

Diffs steering and brakes Boring stuff I afraid. Then body lift and engineers. Then we will play with the supercharger Fortunately I have a spare damaged but very drivable 3.9 90 model to set it up on

If you want to blow that 4.6 it wont want to be a high compression and you will need a M112.
The twin inter cooled set up of a Jag would work well

Good to see you're making slow progress on the 89 you'll have to
Modify your ARB bull bar and rear bars to suite the lift. put the LRA Flares , 33" or 35" on and she will look sweet.
