Introduction

Itd all started when I got on to this website and came across some some sixteen year old chap rebuilding a Landrover series 3 that hed luckily come across from a farmer friend of his, the project looked like a good bit of fun, and he was building it for his first car. I nearly coppied his way and rang a farmer friend o mine to see if he had any old land rovers, he told me to come up the next day and this is what I found.

Its an old 1978 series 3 and after seconds I knew I was going to buy it. It hadnt been started in seven years and apparently the reason they parked it up was because the engine was coming to the end of its time

I knew I was going to buy it even though the jeep looked in poor state to the common eye but after a small bit of negotiating we agreed on a price of €200. This included the jeeps papers and a jack which I thought was a damn good deal. Even after leaving only minutes, I already couldnt wait to start work on it

The tyres were flat but we still managed to pull it out of the muck hole it was in

heres the inside after we pulled all the sillage bags out!
