Anniversary Present to Kick of Restoration

The Range Rover was taken off the road and installed in the garage witht he plan to start its rebuild, but that start has been deferred because of “reality” – other more pressing issues keep getting in the way.  The long term plan is to have it back to top condition with those handful of discrete additions of heated scree, seats and aircon that have already been made, and then to use it as my daily vehicle and use the 109 for trips and shows.

Helena took pity on my “kicked puppy” look while I was refitting the 109’s gearbox for the third time this month, and has kick started the Range Rover project by paying up front in full for a Turner Engineering rebuild of the 300Tdi engine, including gas flowing its head.  So, time to get started on lifting that engine out!

  1. Do you think if I asked her nicely she would pay for them to rebuild the 2 1/4 in my project as I don’t seem to get pressies like that from my missus? Ha-Ha!

    I hope you don’t find too many nasty surprises during the strip-down.
