What wheels are they? If they are the boost alloys and you have all all 5, I'll take 'em. Obviously if the price is right. javier

Cecilia has been on the road for nine months now and I suppose it's about time I shared the link. It's running off my dinky DSL line, so it may be a bit slow. Along with the pics, I posted notes of the progress and other tid bits. http://www.roverpalooza.com/pics/A-boy-and-his-Land-Rover Javier

How much for the rims shipped to Los Angeles? Condition?

Regardless of how you guys feel about this bumper, UO makes some pretty tight products. They were the first company that made a decent looking alternative to Safety Devices' D90 roof rack, among other products. http://picasaweb.google.com/jvelador The company name, the font, the smoked glass...

On the highway, I just clocked 17mpg. That's with a stock rebuilt Solex carb, 235/85-16 BFG MT tires, no hi-ratio transfer case or overdrive and 87 octane gas. I was pleasantly surprised, considering I thought my mpg was more like 12-13. So it is relatively economical for an old truck. The...

Cool, I look forward to seeing the pics. Good luck, man... Javier

Gordo, You've got great taste... Here's my Series IIA which was painted Willow Green as well. In restrospect, I wish I would have made mine a hybrid. Since I got a galvanized frame for a grand, with diffs, I couldn't pass it up...

If you have a Disco '03 or '04 rear stock bumper available, I'm interested in buying one. Bumped my wife's rear end a little too hard the other night. In the Los Angeles area. Prefer to buy locally due to the sheer size of the thing. Javier

Good ol' Azusa :) PM sent... Javier

Thanks, guys! I just brought her home after getting the Solex carburetor rebuilt. I'm creating an album and will post new pics often. At the moment, all the pics are pre-frame swap. I'll post the URL when I have more pics. Gordo, I have seen one other Series truck in Willow Green, great...

I just found this, rear folding seats for the tub: http://www.dap-inc.com/acc/app/lr/lr_bar-guard-int-ext.shtml#int This is a cool option because if only one of my sons wants to go to the store, we can simply fold the other up and fill up the rest of the available space with groceries. :D Javier

Wow, it's hard believe two years have passed since I last posted. Here's what she looks like after a frame swap. The color chosen was just my idea of how I wanted her to look. It's the LR Willow Green using an LR paint code. While I was originally planning to do the swap myself (with a little...

I live a few miles from Derek and have seen their work. It is top notch, welds are very clean, super high quality. I saw their first prototypes of the LR3, Disco II, Defender 110 basket and Defender 90 soft top full rack. I must say, each one is impressive in its own way. I have often...

Definitely consider Urban Offroad's DII roof rack. It can be shipped to you in a much more useful state than buying a used SD rack. Between the light tabs, limb risers, tire carrier, HiLift mount and jerry can holder, you can't beat the price. Javier

It's like anything else, how much are you willing to spend? I know what I wanted, found an opportunity and went for it: http://www.roverpalooza.com/images/CeciliaRestore/P1140157.JPG That's a D90 roll cage, slightly modified to fit my SWB Series IIA. The frame mounts will need to be custom...

Good info, thanks, Tom! I suspect the float in my Solex is bad/sticking. Does anyone know where I can get a repair kit and/or new float? Or is it not worth the time, and I should just get a replacement carb. I'd hate to throw out the baby with the bath water if that's what it turns out to be...

Hi, How many and are they the Castor type? I'd be interested in 5. Javier

If that falls through, I'd like to be next line... Javier

Kevin, If I'm not mistaken, Rover Accessories' Crew Cab Defender was a 110. It's on their home page. http://www.roveraccessories.com/ Javier

Urban Offroad is now shipping D90 full rack/ladders and a basket for 110s. That's in addition to their LR3 rack. He still has a few ready to ship. If anything, you might have to wait a week or so for the next batch run, they're selling so fast. He was telling me he just shipped three (or was it...
