Cheers man.

Now for something different again (well for me anyway ) This is my first Landy, even had to get some imperial bolts in
No where near finished

I know that landy!!

I take it you'll trim the front guards to be flush with the bottom? Top/side hoops to run around frontal edging?

Yip and yip The wings on the bar arn't quite finished, there is still a panel to go on the under side yet. Its also getting a bash plate to protect the steering and bars over the arches.
Still got a few more hours fabby to do

landy didnt sound to bad when i was leaving, having trouble finding measurements for factory shackle position on the old beast got 2 people so called looking at theirs so guess ill find that out in a few months haha, thought about jumping out when i see one parked up with the tape messure lol.

Tom, are you sure your a landy virgin?

Thats looking wicked. Looking forward to more pics

Now that I like

Cool looking landy alright.... Going to be a wee beast when its done.

Getting there Got a little bit of trimming to do to the guards.

Little bit closer but pretty much more of the same

Will the cert man like the supports for the bar either side of the radiator, might fail on not being "pedestrian friendly" ?

Ya lost me Trev I cant see any problems, it hasn't got any forward projections.

very . may have to steal some of the design for the bar work on mine. assuming thats ok of course.

cheers

Trev, As much as I would like Tom to sharpen them to a point, they will be getting some flat welded around the outside of those yet

Ahh now I get you. Yip Petes right, those jobs are earier to do when the bar is off the truck.

Cheers. Quite enjoyed doing this job Even tho its a Landy

man that Landrover's sweet!

like the steering protection very nice

You have no idea what you have just done do ya Tom my boy. Even LR freak in NZ is going to see that and think their's should look the same, (not better because LR owners strive for something that will just work, it doesn't have to be better than anyone else's ) So now you have to work out how Series landys are left going in this country, knock 30% off that figure (cause those owners just don't give a shite) and ther rest will be in your shop for a fitting of coolness. You are never goiung to get away from them now!!

Honestly mate, your design, asthetics and inherent strength in that design has grown exponentially. You should be justifiably proud of the work you are doing now as it IS the tits. Seriously well done.

What he said and maybe you should fab a up a steel drip tray to stop the brit 4bys marking your territory (oh yeah and a small portable one for the owners too). I dont know what you did in a past life but I think your future one has fabrication in it...

Ahh shucks . Its just something to do that keeps me off the streets and away from the 60

Later that day...





Thanks for the good work Tom. The bars, flares and steering guard all look great. One happy customer

Sexy work - and nice photos there too.
