    Something tells me this Landy is a keeper. The mechanics last forever with maintenance and you're making it your own place. Lots of space to refurbish inside. It's going to be greeeaaat!

    There are two types of people in this world. Those that are winners and those that shall we say don't. You sir are a winner. Can't fault you mate, you guys have done an excellent job...can't fault a tryer. Looks spot on, love watching your builds. Keep plugging away mate.

    Hi Liam, that Land Rover looks much better in NATO green and black, as a trainee trucker I would advise measuring the over-all height and get a height marker in the cab so you know the MINIMUM height of bridge that it will fit under! Also if you are lifting her you will have to start driving her like she is a truck with a high centre of gravity. I am going to paint my Iveco NATO green to blend in behind my Army 12x12 tent at 40's events! With black bumpers and side trim. I look forward to how she progresses

    You know what's awesome for taking some of that thick filler off a file rasp it's got a handle like a plane and you can get it nice and flat then put a really nice neat coat of filler over to fill the rasp marks. Thing looks awesome though, if the chassis is solid it's a very good buy although everything is repairable on those anyway.

    Careful with the lift kit Liam. I did the same on a Defender years ago. Made it very unsteady. I should have lengthened the radius arms to suit but didn’t. I removed the lift kit and sold it on. Went a different route with set of wider rims with 265/75 16 BF Goodrich A/T tyres and a set of wheel spacers

    Back in the 80s me and a mate used to go off road in his ex army Land Rovers which were a V8 101 a long wheel base 109 and a 1968 Lightweight with cut away wheel arches, they were all painted in Nato Green. Yours looks terrific and brings back a lot of good memories for me. I hope you have as much fun as we did, I am one envious nearly 60 year old!!👍👍👍

    Loving it. Lift kit is maybe what you need but familiarise yourself with the drive first as issues may arise such as propshaft vibration at certain speeds. Drive slow and steady upto 60mph before and after lift to check. Also so much difference in quality of kits... As said anti roll bars may help with stability on road but you'll have to fit 2" spacer blocks to allow for lift.
    This is so what I've been after. Enjoy 👍
