big malc

Hello Myself and wife rebuilt our 110 sw this summer, bought a "car port" gazebo off ebay for £45. New galv chassis, new bulkhead, 5 new doors, all pipes and hoses, polybush.... Final cost was nearly £10k, but got carried away - each panel resprayed as removed, new box from ashcroft, alloys, heated screen etc. I'd probably just make the money back on resale but that's not the point. I know her inside out and she'll last for ever. Start to finish was 22 days but we had almost no experience. Most difficult bit was electrics. My advice is go for it! Regards Malc.

Hi there. I've searched the forum but can't see anything similar...... Can anybody help me with a headlight problem? It's a TD5 Defender - Scandinavian spec. I can't get any lights at all except main beam flash. All fuses are OK, there is power into the strg col switch, which drops to zero when I move the switch into side or full position. No power at the fuse box, but all OK under the seat. The car has been standing 4 or 5 months but was OK before that. I did have the problem before but like all best landies it fixed itself! Appreciate any advice. Thanks and I'll work out how to update profiles and add pics (Defender 130 +12" station wagon)
