Well done Chris, this story was like a good book.
I didn't stop until the whole 21 pages were looked at.
Kinda wish I still had my 86", I traded it in on a six cyl 109 flat tray near Mareeba NthQld, mid 1973.
The 86" at the time had a very sick clutch from all the oil the 179 threw out!
I wonder if anyone on here ended up with it, it was only one around with a chrome grill !

Cheers Arthur

thanks mate, actually i could make a book! hey you never know your landy might show up one day!

cheers,

Chris

Gday, read and enjoyed all 21 pages, fired me up to do something with mine other than storage (did I mention it's a shed!!!)here on the NSW mid N coast.Patients all quiet at work but could not view clips, work comp don't do U-see,(or E buy).Any forum members in my neck of the wooods, do you know?

Hi All!

I am restoring a LR 1955 the same as yours and as i have a lots of doubts one of them is how can you install the aluminium rivets for cappings, what kind of machine you used? many thanks and congratulations!
