Well I purchased the vehicle in May 06 but nothing really happened for 6 months, maybe because of shock that I bought another series and maybe I am over playing with cars but it is in my blood and now I have a fleet so watch this space. This series 3 is about 90% NOS original parts so I don't look at the receipts anymore, well into the thousands of dollars.
I finally finished the clutch and brakes and I was able to drive it out of the carport. The fuel tank however is still an orange juice bottle. I have finished repairing the tank I just need to solder the bottom bash plate back on and paint it. The PMC steel and timber tray is what I am working on now, I have a local saw mill making the grey ironbark T&G deck.
What a lovely job! :D
I have never been a fan of that colour but it certainly looks superb on your car!
Cheers Charlie
Absolutely superb job! Well done! :):)
That's a fine job lro11. You don't see so many ground up rebuilds of series 3's but yours looks lovely. I hated that colour at first too but since I bought scruby its grown on me - It is the 1970's Aussie Land Rover colour.
Wonderful job mate...I can only dream of Basil looking that good!!! ::)
I have to agree, that does look awesome.:thumbsup: I hope mine will look like that when I'm finished. (Still waiting on a few new parts, before I really get stuck into the ground up rebuild). What is the name of that colour by the way??
