The reason I like the Landies is because the rules say......"You can't work on an old Land Rover without a carton of beer" ...........and I NEVER break the rules.
I had one that I put a 186 in. It was pretty good. ex army 2A. I put a long range tank in th back and an overdrive.
But if I were to do it again I would put a cross-flow 250 falcon motor and a pair of Range Rover diffs into it. The Rangie diffs are 25% higher geared. That would do away with the need for an overdrive. (Screaming heaps of crap they were but necessary) I saw one once and it went really nicely.
I was brought up in Kenya and South Africa and we had Landies since I was 5.

Disco , if i had a slab for every time i worked on a landie i would need road trains to carry them , then there would be two head aches.

Very Nice Basil................BUT................
Not really suitable for a FEARLESS duck that is UNTOUCHABLE!! Don't you agree.????
A duck such as this, should have a custom built unit!! As indeed I have. I think they are Viking horns worn sideways. At least.......that is MY story and I'm sticking to it!!

Disco mate,are you sure that the horns of your Alfoil Hat are not pointing downwards,one up one down so as to speak.That would account for the feeling of bulletproofness that you have suddenly been blessed with.Can you buy coloured Alfoil?Don't know why I said that,the Zoloft must be wearing off.Cheers.Ibbo.
