ditchman Posted September 24, 2015 Report Share Posted September 24, 2015 there is a company in Wembley (i think) who specialise in car restoration who supply all that stuff by the metre.............and it is a heck of a lot cheaper than getting it from a landrover dealer/company............thats where i went ..when i did my manky mossy rusty runner side windows.........

kent Posted September 27, 2015 Report Share Posted September 27, 2015 (edited) thanks kent. so out of interest, what would be the best land rover to restore if you were doing it to sell obviously to make money on, i would of thought a early 80" series 1? A lot depends on a lot. Buy right and sell at the right point in time.I predict original Unaltered 90s will be worth good money in the future but not in the next decade. Series 1 is all about buying right making perfect and selling right With both these things you need to hang on its not a fast buck and there are better ways to earn and invest but not all are fun The series 1 made little when you think how much it cost relative to houses when brand new the house was a massively better investment to make Edited September 27, 2015 by kent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kent Posted September 27, 2015 Report Share Posted September 27, 2015 Series one for profit Yep can be depends if you spend too much or can't get it good enough to get the bigger prices Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuji Shooter Posted September 27, 2015 Report Share Posted September 27, 2015 Biggest mistake people make with S1 is that they think parts are the same price (and available) as a S3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mungler Posted October 4, 2015 Report Share Posted October 4, 2015 Now where was that lightweight Landy thread..... you know, the lightweight Landy thread to beat all other lightweight Landy threads. Man that was funny and embarrassing all at the same time. It was like watching a whole series of Some Mothers Do 'Ave 'Em but condensed into 1 short thread.

Fuji Shooter Posted October 5, 2015 Report Share Posted October 5, 2015 I think there is still good money to be made from a lightweight - they have a good following and you don't have to worry too much about the finish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ditchman Posted October 5, 2015 Report Share Posted October 5, 2015 are you going to use that molygrease or the diff oil for the swivels.......... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viking Posted October 5, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2015 molygrease i was thinking, what would you use? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ditchman Posted October 5, 2015 Report Share Posted October 5, 2015 molygrease its what most l/r agents are recommending.........mine was built for diff oil ..but has been working perfect for god knows how many years with molygrease...and leaks are a thing of the past.......you get them from landrover shops in a plastic sachet with a spout...snip the top of the spout and squeeze it in....
