  1. Sticky Thread Sticky: My Series 3 Restoration

    Well I bought a series 3 88" hard top and went off road with it. I went with a mate of mine who had a Suzuki jeep, you know one of those nasty little ones that roll over. His was jacked up 6 inches and my Landrover was standard. I was doing really well, going everywhere his was going and mine...

  1. JayHoe's '72 2.25 88" rebuild

    A bit of background I have loved Landys for more years than I can remember. The first one I went in was an early Range Rover when I was at middle school. The first one I owned was an F reg 110 2.5 diesel. I loved it, and even drove it across Europe twice to Hungary. The problem was I was also...

  3. Marc's SWB complete re-build

    I think I have just started along a path to lunacy. I found a little SWB in need of care and attention, and the minute I saw it, I knew that I wanted to rebuild it and make it my tour-de-force. I know I'm rebuilding a Forward Control as well at the moment, but this little "shorty" has such...

  6. MUD4FUN's Series 2 'ciggy' renovation (and workshop build)

    Well, I'm going to struggle to match the other excellent work in progress threads here, especially JayHoes but the following will be my renovation. Ciggy is a 1960 Series 2 that we bought sight unseen from a dealer in North Wales for £1300'ish. She is reasonably sound but has been 'upgraded'...

  11. MadDan's new build

    Hi all! This is my new build, being built to replace my well used 300 disco. In actual fact I bought a Mazda SL35 to fit to the old car but needed a V8 R380 box to bolt to the Mazda then ended up buying a complete V8 Disco just for the box. As it turned out the V8's body shell is an absolute...
