Awesome finished product Dennis

Excellent job, done and dusted.

It is going to have an appointment with Murray Rumbel @ Modern Motors Dungog as soon as I can arrange it, it appears to be running reasonably well, but I want it touched by some-one who knows what they are about, cheers and Thank you for the compliments, Dennis

Looking good, and I would have thought that you knew what you are about?

John

**Dinty** · 1st March 2016, 06:03 PM

John, I can get it to run and sound really good, but with my useless eyesight n hearing a few bucks in Murrays pocket suits me just fine, then I'll know it is all A1, cheers Dennis

Dinty,

I'd gladly be satisfied with the holy touch of The Dalai Dinty.

I'd be tickled pink to know that DINTYS DIGITS had been all over any car I owned! This is why Ive let you hold onto my MMMM GUNBUGGY MMM so long.

**Pedro_The_Swift** · 2nd March 2016, 07:33 AM

Next time you take your mmmmGUNBUGGYmmmm out Digger, let me know beforehand and I'll come over and wash it.

Well after a big day yesterday up early off to a car show etc., drive home from the show walking like a half shut pocket knife, get in the 110 drive back to Seaham borrow my mates big bogie box trailer drive back home, reverse it into the yard, up early this morning after a very uncomfortable night (back ache++) move the 110/trailer out onto the street start Series 1 get up on trailer, head off to Dungog and the 'Home' of Land Rover in the Hunter Valley

it all looks secure from the rear, (not needing any attention from the lads)

I stopped a few times along the way to check that nothing had come loose, this green thing was tailgating a bit though

I have arrived @ the 'Home' of Land Rover Modern Motors

maybe home later in the week, depending on the triage mechanic's LOL cheers Dennis

Dinty she looks so, so sweet. Youve done a fantastic job. In fact, this is the main thread that has made me want to get a series!

I do find it a little ironic and amusing that you're taking it to "modern" motors

Cheers

Dan

Dan, I've been going to 'Modern Motors' since 1968 or there-abouts, I can strip down a vehicle and put it back together painted n all, but with my vision issue (from a blunt eye injury way back in the 90's I have a problem with focal levels damn nuisance) and no-one here in Cessnock would want to have anything to do with it, I trust Murray Rumbel with it and I'm sure that it will be running even better than I had it running, and that garage was known as the 'Home' of Land Rovers in the Hunter Valley anyway cheers Dennis
ps and I forgot to add you have to be able to hear as well as see to tune an engine and I'm at a loss in both departments LOL,,.
