Iv bought it les, fetching the old girl back in a week or so. Looking forward to getting her how she should be

Thank you, I'm definitely buying it now and looking forward to the tasks ahead.......just got a little overwhelmed at 1st look over it. But have soon realised the Land Rover community is vast so I want be on my own through my first ever landy and project

Got my heart set on a series 3 I like the front styling and look .....last of the propa old Land Rovers ? Hence im under no illusions that it's going to be a long haul especially as I've never worked in any car before really........but loved meccano as a young boy....so early Land Rover training already completed ?

Hi again thanks for the advice. Things so fare done. Engine oil and filter changed. air filter stripped and cleaned. fuel drained and replaced also new fuel filter fitted. axles all re-oiled front ball joints re-oiled taken for a good run across the fields and up and over steep hill climbs and rocks ( great in low range) breaks working well for an old girl. Just nothing in 2nd or above in high range. Its going to be a labour of love needs complete new wings .. floor pans.. doors and the usual tlc all over. Asking for £1000 not sure if that's a good price with the running issues and no MOT for 20yrs Photos don't really show that doors and wings are bad and need completely changing. Sub frame is fantastic ps as for time to complete I have no doubt all my kids will have past driving tests got married and had kids b4 I'm finished ?

Hi all, advice sort. I have been looking to buy my 1st ever landy (76 series 3). Having not driven for 20yrs I changed oil and filter fuel and filter and cleaned air filter and re-oiled gearbox and axles and balljoints. The landy runs fine reving the engine (2.25 desiel) in neutral and drives great in low range in all gears over rocks and up hills but in high range it has no power at all once in 2nd and stalls.... any ideas before I put in an offer and buy. Many thanks Anthony
