I'm already out of the closet. I'm putting one in my trail truck. Time will tell if I love it or not though. If its indeed a turd one of my 454's will probably find its way in there.

I took the body off today. took a whole 2 hours to get it to where it sits now in the pics. My Dad and I were able to just lift off the tub and set it on the saw horses...the benefits of an all aluminum tub! :D The frame is a lot better than I thought...very little rust on he tops. I'll have to replace the front horns and rear X-member (fairly routine on a rover of this age). somebody ghetto fabbed the outriggers on the rear springs. doesn't matter b/c they will be whacked off to make room for the longer sub springs.
Do you think a diesel will fit in there? may have to remove/rework some of the x-members.
I have doubles of a lot of body panels...I need to have a "auto-jumble" (limey speak) to et rid of this crap.
check out the factory beefed axle tube. the u-bolt runs through it kind of like a skid plate I guess.
hey toyota did that, but they put the trusses on the bottom, where they're needed and you don't have to put the ubolts through them!
:flipoff2:
they are on the bottom :confused: was toyota even making 4wd trucks in 1961?

i just finished reading one of andy mcnab's books. he was a member of the british SAS and they called their D110's "pinkie"s.
new idea grayson. It would fix the headliner problem in the range rover.

I was looking at it yesterday....I think it may become a p/u w/ a dovetail ala the murphy bell. I would really like a 2 door RR. Saw one couple weeks ago over at my friends Sam's place.
