Sounds like a mis-stamped 203, maybe email me some pics and I'll try ID it for you.

@onetonlandrover thanks Dan I'll send you some pics measurements are 94m putting straight edge across rim then measure to centre flat

Measurements on others I have are 98/98/96/96

@@User-wollswoycegawage Sounds about right for 203s but there is very little consistency tbh.

@@onetonlandrover want 2 More 98s really I have got narrow track 204 thought of grinding off the rivets Welding up the hole's Turn center a bit to clear old holes then revrivet them at 98 Well get someone else to with a jig Or weld them in place with a jig

Some is a Yiddish artist called Maria Ka, the drone footage stuff is just copyright free music.

@@edwardmeakes1284 That's very kind, thank you.

Exactly! All the way over here in Canada at about 7:00 minutes in I was asking myself (only person here) are the front hubs locked and is it in 4WD?

@@richardguse3410 One guy had locked his hubs and then one side came loose, hence no traction. Not sure if he bumped against something or what. Personally I always remove FWHs.

@@onetonlandrover I had never heard of hubs unlocking themselves. I have Warn hubs which have a smooth positive feel when locked in or unlocked.

The green 88” at 7:30 doesn’t appear to have Free wheeling hubs. Interesting.🧐

@@calsurflance5598 No but it's on 6.00x16 tyres and was hung up on it's springs.

@@MarkBanks555 My pleasure Mark, very glad you enjoyed it. ☺️

@@Pinzpilot101 Yes I'm still here, still uploading regularly...sounds like you have a nice collection.

@@onetonlandrover Its actually been more like 14.5 years I,ve actually been in Poland...When I got here, I could see Defenders everywhere....The local electricity company were keen buyers, but now they have all gone over to these American style work trucks that are sold by Toyota and Isuzu with a purpose built body on the back...roll up sides and compartments for tools and parts on the inside, racks on top. Going up to the larger trucks the 'Energia' (electricity board) run, the IVECO 4x4 light truck is popular..talking to them, back under communism the never had this class of truck, it was Landrover sized (Tarpan Honker) and then Star 244 266 heavy 4- 5 ton trucks.....those have been replaced by some really capable 5/7 ton MAN trucks with a crane, (changing transformers and other heavy work). On the sad side, I have only ever seen one Series 3 here, it was LHD and one of the last 'county' models....say it once and never again, may have been visiting from outside this county. On the general 4x4 enthusiast side....there are a couple of Wolf G wagens and even a Peugeot version knocking around....A bloke I know who owns a field near my place has a really nice G Wagen wolf, his son has a SWB Wrangler and he just treated himself to a Toyota 'Troopy' it will tow 4 ton with 2 ton in the back, its back springs make the springs on a 1 Ton Landrover look like Series one springs. Weather report...don't know if I told you? it's a bit different to Oxfordshire and Wiltshire that I was mostly used to. I still drive the hundreds of lanes that are everywhere here, so the weather is on my mind....generally the winters are short cold and snowy, the summers are long hot (almost South of France weather) we just had a really long hot summer (dry, no rain for many months on end and then just a little) the summer ran from late April to late October so I have been laning everywhere. Plus diesel is relatively cheap compared to UK....fresh food is so cheap it's almost free, (most people grow their own outside of blocks of flats...and even they have allotments with a little mini house to camp out in overnight..(bit like Germany used to be, when I was a young soldier in 1974 driving Landrovers everyday yeehaa).

I should say that the Electricity guys still have 2 Defenders that they prefer for getting to really rough places....but I think they are robbing parts from some parts vehicles to keep them on the road....and that doesn't take much the MOT here is ten minutes....brakes on rollers, swivels and ball joints, and lights...takes longer to do the paperwork.

@@alwynvanwyk1851 Thank you!

@@DavidSmith-hg9jw I've never driven a Jeep so I can't comment, but I'd love a go in one - I got into Land Rovers in part due to a childhood fascination with WW2 Jeeps.

Yes.

@@mattluszczak8095 I believe they ceased publication.

@@mattluszczak8095 No.

My pleasure!

Indeed you did! 💪

Sure, I just didn't get time to do so...

I didn't have much time either, but got a few shots walking around in my recent video....

@@onetonlandrover Turns out my brother in law was there at the show with his series 1 80' 👌 belonged to my father who applied the livery of his old royal artillery insignia... 👍

Impressive little trucks 👌

Absolutely certain.

Bonnet please

@@SimonPerry-cz4ke Sorry! What was I thinking? 🧐🤦🏼‍♂️

Bit of a clue in the title...;)

Indeed, the person who got it stuck was not the owner, indeed it was their first time driving a LandRover.

Feel free to bring one along next time and prove it ;)

Yes, a Willy’s for the fair comparison. Good luck with that.

A bit close on one of two of them, 2.25 petrol electrical systems especially vulnerable but no serious mishaps throughout the day.

Cheers!

Really? Have a think. 1 Ton doesn't refer to it's gross weight...

1ton ist the load capacity.....

That's mine.

Im not God in English

Perhaps you try to Change ignition- Timing too, If the gasoline ist to Bad?

Twas rather damp!

Interesting, they don't seem very popular with British ladies!

@@onetonlandrover I went to show mine to my friends widow last year when I bought it . She immediately said “I want it”! Lol Every time I start it up to go anywhere, my wife wants to go for a ride! ( and she has a Jeep Wrangler) I think people get tired of the pretentious boring BMW, Mercedes, Corvette,Ferrari crowd, but when they see an old Landy, it makes them smile and wave!

@@calsurflance5598 I suppose stateside they are an exotic rarity. Here they are pretty common still and are associated with bearded old men in sheds, although increasingly they are being bought by "yuppie" types.

@@onetonlandrover Oh the horror! Lol

@@onetonlandrover I think I found the only one in the western states that has not been over restored. It needs a lot of TLC, but is solid. Yes, it is crazy the amount of money people are spending on restorations, especially here in California. The tech industry in the San Francisco area has produced some very wealthy folks that want trophy cars. I suppose it’s good, in that they keep the interest up, and stimulates the aftermarket parts industry . My goal is just to make it a reliable fun car that I can take to the many National Parks and wildlife reserves here in California. Cheers!

Wet laning?

Yeah, I guess you can join clubs etc and get involved.

I didn't do anything as the dizzy is high up on a straight six and quite close to the bulkhead.

Was that a series? Where did he work from?

​@@onetonlandroverhi i think it was a 109 6 cylinder petrol, as you are probably aware the big tyres weren't always an advantage, he was a linesman his yard was in Marlow Bucks ,he ended up driving a 6 wheel Landrover Cherry picker V8 petrol 👍

They did run some standard sixes, may have been one of those, although some late 1 Tons were run on 7.50x16s.

Hi ,yes it was running on 7.50 x16 ,but to my dad's amazement they also tried Austin Gipsies but they didn't reign very long,

@@davidpritchard3429 Yes I did hear about that, got one photo of what might be an ex board Austin.
