Is this a genuine V8? Asking because of the recessed front panel.

Very interesting, looks like Neil’s SWB series is going for the bare metal look!

This was most enjoyable to watch 😃 I love the detail, I respect how much time it took to film & edit it, incredible work 👏 Look forward to future episodes!

Great to watch. All the best jobs are done round the back of the house, usually in the pouring rain, umbrella at the ready. Keep up the good word, already looking forward to watching the next installment. 👍

It’s all the other repairs and work that you discover whilst doing this (like axle/steering relay/bulkhead/rear tub etc etc that take the time). Working on gravel ( esp on a slope like I and many others have to do is a real pain esp for retrieving dropped items). Thanks for keeping it real for us home mechanics who have a similar setup, limited space and not a nice fully equipped 4 post air conditioned workshop. It is just such a pity that you did not spend £50 to paint the chassis for the next owner, Galv looks great for a while after that it links crap & rust starts to come though with our salty roads. Preventable with a couple coats of good chassis paint & nice black Finnish to last for another 50+ years.

awesome video!!. very interested to see how you get on as im toying the idea of putting a 3.5 v8 in my 109

Your brave doing it on a gravel driveway!

Great watch, raally fab to watch the logical strip down procedure 🙂

Excellent. Nice to see a 4 legged H&S officer…….

Fascinating to watch and an excellent video for anyone who intends to carry out a similar job.

Hi Look for pic up 90 for sale

An interesting podcast with Tom Barnard. It's good to hear more about the LRM contributors. I've also just re-read his interesting article on his Ninety in LRM June 2024, after Martin mentioned it in the podcast. Mike S - LRM subscriber.

Looks impressive, compared with our 110. It's just a pity they are so expensive and JLR has abandoned it's workhorse heritage and gone for uber-luxury.

How did you got from the LandRover classic showroom to the Fox in oddington

How does it compare to a Twisted V8?

Did I see that right? £180,000! For a defender?

What’s happening to bowler motorsport tho

Sorry but the 2 bolts on the rear crossmember just don't look like £150k, the washers are too big and overlap the crossmembers edges, really JLR?

Thanks for giving me and my dad a shout out on the pod has made our day 👏🏼

Martin I'm thrilled you and LRM are documenting this rebuild. I'm in the States and am at the front end of my frame-off restoration of my '83 Series 3 SWB. I've been corresponding with Richard Hall who has been very generous in providing some guidance on converting my 2.25 diesel to a 2.5 petrol (i.e., 17H). I will be building this all on a new galvanized Marsland chassis with a new galvanized bulkhead. Your videos will be really helpful! Thanks again. ~Pete (South Carolina & LRM subscriber)

Best thing I did on my series 2a was a Marsland galvanised chassis and parabolic springs, it’s mind boggling.

Great video. I would love to see how you built your winch mount.

Nice to see a series 3 without chequer plate rash…… the spring swap is a great choice as ex military ones are horrible unless loaded to the gunnels.

Why use Fairy overdrive ??? why not use the Canadian one , everything else I agree with

Is it a 1 ton ? kinda looks it mines a s3 76, 200tdi done by myself.

Interesting to see how you find the MAER chassis?

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Okay Land Bright Ten

Hi Main Car Luck Bank. Land Road Bright

This will be fun to follow along. I have a 1966 Series2A88”. I bought just a year ago from a rancher who was still using it here in central California. Fortunately there is zero rust on the chassis and bulkhead. Cheers.👌

Nice to be in at the start of a project. I am just about to start my own series 3 journey with a ground up station wagon rebuild. New chassis scheduled to arrive on Tuesday. Yet to decide on where to source the replacement bulkhead. Good luck from Gloucestershire.

Are you going for the original military spec chassis

Nice to see the landy, so often mentioned on the podcast (wich i look forward to every week). Cheers from Finland

A great podcast once again chaps! Keep up the good work 👌🏻

JDV comes across really well on this. His character can be a bit marmite on tv to some people, but he does seem like a really good bloke.

Luz Road

Strangely enjoyable to watch. Might have to place an order

What sort of metal are the bolts and nuts that are joining these two disparate, galvanically unfriendly metals together?? And then there were three!!

YRM to the rescue 🎉

Should that not be an Indian flag you’re showing after all Land Rover is owned by Tata now but keep dreaming.

Listened to every episode on Spotify loving the podcast, im 23 and all my life my dad has had some form of Range Rover / Land Rover. So obviously I had to buy a Land Rover after my shogun died I thought let’s have a look and see what’s about, now I’m the proud owner of an original spec td5 disco 2

Great wall art, so cool

Mint 101👍🏻 Is the crane to pick up his wallet to pay for fuel and more Landies?.😜😂

Hermann Plains

Such a nice car. This is inspiring me to finish building a greenhouse for my good lady wife and buy a 90 for restoration.

👍🤣

Is that Pete Willford's old trialer I spy in the stack?.

Could you anchor down on a solid surface with weights instead?
