I don't think you can swap too many parts between those - to keep at least one of 'em going! :)

Divorce court is calling you for the exclusive .LOL
If it were me that was buying all these toys ,I would have been burried in a shallow grave with a 24spline axle sticking outta my noggin. And the wife would be redecorating with the insurance money minus the cash it cost to have made me disappear . You are a lucky man .

Welcome Ron!

... admitting your addiction is the first step to the road of recovery.

I'm still in denial.

Ed, Ron's wife, Alyssa, has a Disco and works at a LR dealership, so, I don't think he'll be in as much trouble as I'd be if I bought two more Rovers in as many weeks....

Congrats, Ron!


Let's see, that makes:

a 1951 80" SI
a 1959(?) SII, aka "Noah"
a Range Rover, late 80's? ('89?)
a 1995 Discovery
and, he's building a 110 Dormobile...
Plus Alyssa's Discovery, too, (~'96?)

And the Honda.

:)

I'm aspiring to reach his level of Roverness one day.....

But if only one of them runs, does they count or do you get 1/2 points for those? :)
