  9. Welcome to the Friendly Forum I m sure several of the other members who have great experiance in LR's will be along shortly to chat with you about their fun with sorting out Land Rover engine problems and more . So come on into the Clubhouse Bar and pour yourself a wee dram of something . If you have a mind to order something from the kitchen you may have to lend them a hand as a number of other Members are keeping them busy cooking mash potato's and such to recreate lifesize models of popular MV's complete with Gravy swamps .
  10. It could have been so much worse ! that last photo , as Odd Ball would have said what a mother wonderful beautiful sight to see , when you looked at it for the first time and not just full of rusty water and completely corroded parts. I look foreward to the saga of getting all those pistons out one way or the other , in pieces large and small .
  11. The multi bank used 5 engines did'nt it ? so its quite a bit more to redo 5 complete engines than just doing 1 single huge tank engine ! That must have taken years of very hard labor and a lot of luck to put right again .

Archives first , My getting you a gift ------- :rofl: lets see what the next photo is ???? :shocked: :coffee: :yay::yay::yay:
  16. Guessing this would allow OP. forces events to be planned :idea: at the Clubhouse now . Will that mean splitting the clubhouse into two area's or perhaps only the off road course so to allow photography of seperate vehicle groups ? otherwise it might confuse :confused: non-club members seeing such a mixing of nationalities:coffee:
  17. Hope you had a lot of friends attend your party , I m sure that all had a time to remember.
