Just a bit of fun for one of my customers. (Building it, it's a useful farm vehicle not a toy ) Land Rover 110 with a '39 GMC cab. A few bits altered to narrow and shorten the front end. Tub is an old trailer. His last little project was something that gave him a longer load bed than a normal 110. 2B Forward Control on a 300 110. Very useful.

Good call. Hadn't thought of that. I still see them as £250 bargains rather than nice £8k cars. 8k should get you between 4 and 10 useable ones or 2 really, really nice ones or one massively overpriced one. Not very tax exempt. Sent from my boss' garden using proboards

Today, after a 5 week break (demanding wife/ bathroom fitting stuff) I dragged this out. I say dragged, it started straight up and I drove it out. German reliability Anyhoo. After some me jiggling and wiggling etc I now have fully functional lighting. Apart from the indicator tell tale. That, I can't get to work. Once that is done and I've replaced or repaired the centre box then we're good to MOT. Sent from my rubbish update centre using proboards

Big enough for a normal sized car not a Dave sized car Low ground clearance. That's all. It should drive for loading and unloading.

Hello. A friend of mine needs a car moving from SO41 to S1.
Covered transport required please.
Any suggestions gratefully received, especially if there is an idea of cost.

They are a pain to get (at a sensible price) . Hankook and Hercules do them but not sure I'd want them, I use Cooper Cobras which are ok in the warm and dry and utterly hilarious in the wet, not sure they ever wear out either. Try Black circles or GigaTyres or Northants Tyres but aside from that it's fleabay or get any old tyres and use paint.

I need to spend some quality time with the Manta and Monza 4 is complaining about something ignitiony.
So I'll be making a new chicken house.....
... and trying to figure out where to put the Triumph Spitfire I haven't bought,
without anyone noticing. . . .

Gama are a German model manufacturer. Might be possible to get a band 3 transmitter using their branding but technically if it's 27Mhz then a set of band 3 crystals should do it.

After getting a nice parcel from Germanyland, I broke out the paints and made this. A small parcel from China helped. Then, after some farting about, this occurred. Largely finished. Rear end needs some work on the lower bumper and a spoiler. Not quite how I wanted it but the huge level of work required to make it right wasn't warranted this time. Overall, quite happy. Super dorifto weapon.
