Hi I've inherited a 1990 defender twin cab from my old man he used to 4x4 it in the 90's. It's pretty rough now having spent a lot of years parked up and is far from road worthy. It has a trusty Land cruiser 1PZ engine so I'm pretty excited about getting her back out there. It needs serious work on steering and gearbox, new exhaust system and a few cosmetic parts.
Anyone know a good parts dealer for old Landys?
Would be great to hear other Landy do up stories
Cheers

Hey man, sounds like a good project!!!
I reckon the best place to get parts from in NZ is:
www.LandroverSpares.co.nz
They carry a good range is stock, and if they don't have it, it's in on the next shipment from the UK.

Everything on a LR is DIY, it's one big maccano set

Welcome JT110 to Land Rover ownership. Where abouts are you located?
The snorkel might be interesting with a different engine. Where is the airbox currently?
