    Here we go again

    Well I bought a 2a and was thinking of fitting a V8 and Lt95 box into it, so I went out and bought all the gear ( V8, box, panels etc ) and then found out I would need to change the front axle to a stage 1 or similar plus update all the braking etc

    So after alot of thinking I decide to buy Landyandy's stage 1 and start all over again




    Stripped dash waiting for the custom one to go in, but need to do alot of re-wiring as its had previous fire's


    Waiting for new seating


    Capstan winch fitted to front but will be removed as I don't want it

    There is alot of things need doing like all the wiring is ????? but hopefully by new years there will be a stage 1 parked in the drive instead of the disco.

    If anyone needs panels, g/box, v8 etc have a look in the markets as there all for sale including the 2a

    I thought the way to update was to buy an old RR for the motor engine, and put the axles/diff under the series along with their disc brakes. But I am not sure of this. Would think the RR axles/diff would not be worth a lot considering you could buy a whole RR from me for $990-- and I am privately wrecking another one that was rolled. Someone is giving us a series III, that we have not seen properly--it has too much rubbish around it. If we decide to restore it we will consider doing that to it.

    Will be a great truck when it is finished!

    You don't want a county chassis to put under that while you are at it do you?

    No hash yet but LOTS of burnt out wiring he must have over loaded the lighting system and its fried (completely) and she will only start if you wire the coil straight to the battery.

    So I have stripped out the dash as you can see and will re-wire her over the christmas period.
