Oh and I think the whole engine crank rebuild and paint job this year kinda counts too, at least my wife says so... I may send myself a highlift from a secret santa.
The woman did good, she got me 5 movies that feature Rovers :
1. The Itailian Job (orig with Michael Caine) - features a SER II
2. Living Free - features a SER II
3. The Gods Must be Crazy - features a SER II
4. She's all that - features a Defender apparently
5. Tucker Must Die - features a Defender apparently
Plus - a really cool Pewter statue of a Ser I w/ HUE plate...

The loving wife bought me a set of specialized sockets that will remove rounded nuts or bolts. Me throwing wrenches when I am trying to remove bolts with stripped heads seems to have worked, or maybe it was the kid picking up on some of the colorfull words accompaning the wrench throwing hmmmm?

Got me a new tow strap. After 10 years of loyal service, the old one is done. A new 3"x30' will continue to pull those jeeps .
On a side note, I made some $$$ a few days ago so I'll have enough to fix my brakes. Get those fixed, the engine sorted out and new weatherstripping and I'll be a happy camper.
santa got me a neat little tool. its a milwaukee flexable camera so i can check out hard to see areas of the rover, it has its own led light and shows up on a handheld screen...pretty cool

I got a bunch of USGS 7.5 minute topo maps & a very nice map case with a viewing window. Also a ladder extension for my rooftop tent. My son got an orange Defender 110 much like Roverform's... he runs around with it saying "wa-wo-wuh" (Land Rover).
