However, very nice Rover. Congrats!

It holds my mini cordless everytime I'm pulling stuff out of the dash.

I like the flares. If they were shiny I don't think I'd be able to accept them but in satin they look pretty good. Nice choice!

Any info on that gas tank? Is that a landy item or something else? I'm getting sick of the fumes with the under seat tanks.

I guess I have to be the sole voice of dissent- I think it looks better without them- but it is your truck- you shouldn't worry what anyone else thinks- do what you like and enjoy it!

Hmm...Usually I don't like the looks of fender flares on series rovers. To me they usually just don't look right, but on your truck they look great! Maybe I've only seen them on trucks with the original series axles, which seem to be too inboard for the flares.

Nice job, looks good!

The rear gas tank was a one-off custom fabrication. The rover has the rear as the main and the side tank as the reserve with the toggle switch under the passenger dash to toggle between the tanks.

I have always thought the same. But since my wheels actually were a bit outside of the bodyline, I figured they might bring it together a bit. I definitly like them.

Thanks for the update! I was thinking that it looked like a 109 or 110 tank but I guess that would be wrong.

Cheers!

I like those allot. The Defender stick out so far and IMHO detract from the look of the Series vehicles. I hate to see how much those are.

I want.

[xsbowes]

To Hawaii including shipping it would be $365.

Actually not bad in my opinion. Someone posted that you could buy them here....76.50 pounds for the set...roughly $112 USD.

Duh!
Now that I think about it. I believe I have the same manufacturer on my lightweight. Not sure though as the previous owner put them on.

They look pretty good but it's up in the air because I've got the standard series axles. If it wasn't for the wide offset of my five spoke wheels they might look really out of place.

But there are a few more shots of them in the link.
