Those who sent specific part requests I'll be in touch with directly. For those parts that weren't claimed in advance, this is what is available. I'm happy to offer discounts on multiple items. I will update the list as parts are sold. I might add parts if pre-sale buyers fall through.

Since you still drive a disco don't you think it would be a good idea to keep some of that stuff? You know your gonna need some of it someday.

This is something I've considered. I am keeping a number of parts I pulled off the old Disco (not listed here, obviously). I also need to balance this with the constraints of limited storage space and the wife's tolerance for Rover hoarding. Right now I need the space and the cash more than the security of a spare part inventory.

I've had this challenge with parting cars in the past. In general, unless something is really special or you know you need it, I think it's worth selling as much as you can. Particularly with D1/D2, there are enough of them around in u-pull yards and parts on ebay that I'd rather roll the dice and get the cash in hand. If I need the part down the road, I'll probably get it for the same price and lose a couple bucks on shipping. Plus, I get to have all the space for my kids' crap in the garage.

Oh, GLWS.

It's really not the end of the world. I had to get my last parts truck out of here just after thanks giving so I could get a tree taken down. She left with both motors , front roof just had the guides replaced and all that shit left. Now I need the door panels and they left in the back of it, already off the doors. Oh well.

235/70/16. It was a factory Michelin XPC. I just recycled it, there were some cracks on the tread at the base of the blocks. I still have 4 nearly new Toyo A/T tires in the same size I just removed. The cover was a pretty snug fit.

It's a good deal, you might ask around to piece together a ride for it. Someone might be headed your way, or at least close enough, who could transport it.

What kind of Radiator is it? Is it one of the after market ones with the plastic tanks?

Don't worry about the price of sunroof motors. The race to the bottom has them selling on eBay for $35 with free shipping. MAF's? I can't give them away at $50 and they've been tested and come with a warranty. There's very little that carries much value in these DI's these days.
