I know that the Land Rover Rivet Counting club will give me hell for what I said so Ill clarify- haha.
I knew I should have said EXACTLY what the truth was." That VIRTUALLY all were exported and Most resident vehicles went to Military or Corporate customers in the UK." Hows that?
I'm not aware of any stage 1 V8s used by the British army. Most seem to have been station wagons with not many going into working lives. Southern electric had a handful, but not aware of many other commercial users. The odd breakdown truck maybe? Export models were much more common.
Good one you mate. Living the dream. I’m a proud lifelong Landrover owner here in Aussie.
I have a stage 1 here in the uk . Mine was at the 1982 Blenheim palace motor show and is one of a few that stayed behind. She’s bloody rusty
doing a resto on my 1977 series 3, that area where the windscreen sat and is connected to the dashtop you can move it around, welsh weather and previous owners disinterest in checking things over.
Back in the 70s my uncle used to use supafry, as cavity wax, here in Oz . Got it from the supermarket, like a square block of animal fat.
The old boy and I and restoring one up here in Aus. Great old car
Its really coming along. Looking forward to the repair of the "cancer". Those windscreen wipers - I've melted the aluminium before, so I was waiting for you to experience the same fate...but no, you did well.
I have to go do a weeks work for someone else bugger it! = Itll be about two weeks till I can paint it. But then all that good stuff can be fitted
@@t.h.o.r. We all have to do what we have to do. We'll be waiting :)
Your doing grand job on the repairs. The bulk head would be dust if it was here in the Highlands. Nice one mate got the wipers of buy bit off a bugger to get off. Nice strip down
Looking good.
enjoyed this wee short !
I bet they do!...t-shirt
oh look rust ,SURPRISE 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Looks like you’re doing a great job on restoring it.. Question for you I just bought a diesel transfer tank and it has surface rust on the inside bottom of it what would you suggest to me on how to remove the rust. Thank you for so many helpful information
Not sure without seeing it- but citric acid is a good start. for 12 hours then baking soda to stop the reaction. once it has diesel in it it should stay rust free. let me know how well that works.
Excellent work ! Ps what is the large vehicle under the tarp ?
Oh thats a 1949 bedford bus part way through massive rust repairs
Ah cool, I’ve got a 1951 flxible clipper and a couple series 2 and a tidy series 3 , I reckon we’d get on well.
Saw it clicked it
Stage 2 was the four door Range Rover
And the switch to coils on the utility. I think the Range Rover did get an update under stage 1 also but I'm not certain of the details.
@@onetonlandrover the 90/110 was stage 3
@@EricaMTB Never seen any reference to a stage 3, do you have a link to some info on that?
@@EricaMTB James Taylor's book "60 years of the 4x4 workhorse" clearly states the change to coils came under stage 2 of the investment programme. Interestingly there is mention of a stage III as a derivative of the SD5 project, which would have been a totally re-bodied landrover with independent suspension. It was around in 1977 and quickly abandoned.
wy do you not put an mercedes 603 engine in
Because that would be a sacrilegious act of vandalism. 'Rare' 109V8 Stage 1s are Rover V8 (apart from some that came with the diesel 😱).
