    I drive a 59 as well (i don't know if it's in my sig). No Overdrive. Original leaking radiator, Head gasket weeps...... Original "old style" thermostat housing with NAPA thermostat part # 375-180. I drive it like I stole it 20 miles ish one way, it stays at 180 degrees once it opens. Not too hilly around here.

    I just want to say what an awesome trip you took in your Land Rover - your blog is really interesting! You are a wise and lucky man.

    Lucky. yes. Wise... debatable.

    It really was a blast. I will have part two of the adventure in July of this year when I drive from Calgary back and forth through the mountains from the US-Canada border up to the Yukon. I'm already prepping the truck with new swivel balls, a Railko conversion, a better air filter and perhaps, if I'm lucky, a headliner!
