[New owner chassis & bulkhead question]

Yeah I understand that the galvanised should out live most of us, although personally am hoping it's close lol

My question was more, is the corner weld on the defender not a problem, as they are not legal, has nobody had problems with the mot or resale of the vehicle? 

[New owner chassis & bulkhead question]

Hi folks 

Am fairly new to land rover ownship, finally bought myself a new project!! 

I've been looking at a new bulkhead and chassis. Looking at the different suppliers there seems to be quite a difference between price and how they are built. From what I can see it's only the gkn chassis that is type approved. I know that they should all really be type approved, however with an eye on cost, is it a good idea to out cash down on a shielder Chassis? As anybody had problems with getting one MOD'd or has anybody had the misfortune of crashing one, how did proform, or fall apart? 

Basically is it worth saving a few quid or will that just come back to bite?
