Well, Arthur from Rovers North just dropped off a little shipment of parts for me. This should gets things started:
WOW, I'll say. Looks like Christmas came early this year at your house.Originally Posted by jac04
So what do you figure, about a week or so?

Where's the "little" shipment of parts? Behind the new chassis, new engine, new wheels and tires?Originally Posted by jac04
You're making my 109 jealous...
--Mark
1973 SIII 109 RHD 2.5NA Diesel
0-54mph in just under 11.5 minutes
(9.7 minutes now that she's a 3-door).
...don't forget about the new stainless exhaust, new radiator, and transmission ass'y..
Yeah, I figure a few weeks and I'll have it all together....just kidding. I have a lot of sandblasting/priming/painting to do so I may have to wait until Spring for re-assembly. I really don't feel like paying to keep the garage at 65-70 degrees all winter just so I can paint. I'll try to finish the tear-down this winter and get some of the mechanicals squared-away.
So waht are you keeping from the original - The LR badge from the grill?Originally Posted by jac04
That little lot is a bunch of money. Have fun.
The funny thing is that I actually had to buy one of those - the original was missing.Originally Posted by greenmeanie
Looks like you have your weekends booked up.... What kind of tires are those?
They look like Michelin XZL tires in 750x16.
Nice choice.
^ Yes, XZLs in 7.50x16.
