Said I'd shove some pics up once I got her on the road so here they are.
Still a fair bit of work to do yet but I'm happy with the way she's going.
This is how she came to me from the depths of Wales.
Took a gamble on a non runner.
After being stood for over 6 years she was in a real mess.
I put a new battery on and off she went
the whole braking system has been renewed bar the master cylinder which was savable.
not a lot of welding was needed just a couple of plates on the sills and some atch welding in the body for small holes and one in the wheel arch
Interior was in a state due to some leaks so the carpets were ripped up and black astro turf and sound deadening was thrown in.
First couple of times I got to drive her I fell in love.
This is my first 4x4 and i'm really having fun with her.
I'm struggling with alining the transfer case at the mo but i'm gonna swap out the u/j for a Cv setup which i'm hoping will solve the issue.
Saying that she's proved to be more than capable off or on road

Thanks
I'll keep the post up to date as she progresses.
I've just ordered new cv prop shafts and transfer box shaft and need to re drill some bolt holes as the old ones on the tranny are fubar.
