Oooohhhh What a vicious looking brute, sitting there snarling and gnashing its teeth, just one look into those demonic eyes sends a shivver right up me spine. Obviously a natural born killer just waiting in anticipation of its next kill. Thats it for me.......I'm bugging out of here......................never going anywhere near Dinty's place again

Before yer legs take control, stack as much of the completed stuff under yer arms as ya can... I'll be waiting on the street, engine runnin'


Seriously, though, it's looking fantastic. Much envious.

it's looks great dinty hope I can get the workshop truck looking that good

Good job Dennis. I would say it will be better than new when finished

G'day All, Well I might not make the deadline for Corowa, yesterday driving to work in my 110 Isuzu, the G/box made 2 almighty bangs when changing 1-2, 2-3rd, no more noise etc, coming home changed up to 2nd instant loud moaning whine, up into 3rd same but louder, 4th at 55k's growl, growl, and to make things worse I have to have 'Chloe' n 'Wee-Wullie' out of the home they have had for the past 5 or so years this coming Friday (tomorrow) it couldn't have happened at a worse time.
I like the thread re Isuzu Gearbox conversion in Isuzu enthusiasts section, have sent the Grubb a pm, but I will still have to look at the issue with my 110 G/box, I will make a start this afternoon when I get home from a 4 hour shift, so depending on what funds have to be spent here will determine whether I take a Land Rover to Corowa in 2011 cheers Dennis
ps I dont know whether 113-372 will look like new, but it will certainly look better than it has for the past 40 years LOL,,.

Not good news Dennis.....we are in doubt of taking 'bessie' to Corowa as well

Hi there Dennis

Must be that time - my 130 did the same thing about 2 months ago but I fixd the problem (didnt have time to fix it or the next option I SOLD IT) and bought a FORD XR6.

PS I need to state before people throw stones at me the new owner of the 130 was made aware of the problem and price was adjusted to suit.

All the best

Wayne
