1973...Series 3 88
Well I went for my first drive today...(at least in my mind),didn't go far, as my Landy is still on jack stands. However it was the first time I have been able to have her running and been able to go thru the gears and also engaged the 4x4, All seems in working order.
So far I have cleaned,rust treated and painted the frame. All the electrics are working,except the blower motor. (I need a casing for it, any one have one laying around?). The fluids have been checked, changed or topped off. well all the oil I put in the steering box is presently relocating it self to the ground.
A lot of attention an effort was put into the cosmetics of the interior, and I am pleased with it.
Rims are painted and new clutch slave installed. If all goes well I hope to run her around the block sometime this weekend.
I would like to thank everyone on this forum( not only the ones that responded to my questions) as I have gained so much knowledge form going back through previous posts. I now feel like I am almost an experienced Land Rover owner.
I dont have a Guiness to celebrate. Will a Jamaican rum and Coke work?
