My 100 since I decided to lavish a lump of cash welding and painting and making it look nice again has started being a proper pain in the ass. Basically it does as in the video, doors won't lock, height ride lights appear randomly which is odd since its a factory gx on springs. Disconnect...

Spoke with a couple of other members and decided run this past you all. Who would be up for a get together around Christmas. Not a camp out or any laning. How about we get a venue I'm thinking Midlands to make it fairly central. Thinking a travel lodge with a restaurant and bar having a few...

ANY body have one kicking around. Just got another Colorado in for Ukraine ambulance conversion and appears 1st gear syncro is badly worn kicking it out quite violently. Bit pissed as there is very little profit in it but cant send it as it is as lives will be dependent on it. Any ideas or...

Just wondering if anyone has had the front diff re built on their 80. My auto off road truck is starting to clank excessively on the front when going from drive to reverse and visa versa. Roughly an inch of play in the diff flange. CVS are new so no play that end.Was thinking of just chucking in...

Underneath is rock solid rear axle etc. Its never been welded that I can see and doesn't need any. Its mot,d until Christmas. Chubby box has been removed and a wooden one built in place...

Anyone here considering attending this. April 1st (no it's not a wind up). Burger van and live band. Any thoughts?

Was what I thought was all my 24v manual really needed. Just popped in to see my mate jannis and the trucks on the ramp minus axle minus fuel tank and every component from the back of the gearbox too. Body jacked up about 10 inches and this is how the chassis is looking as he repairs the rust...

100 series. 2000 v plate. 96000 miles. Could be a bargain for someone.

As above. A guy I go laning with regularly has a 4.5 petrol 80. Last time out he cooked it on the way home (stone through rad) It was too late when he noticed. We stripped it hoping for just a gasket but she's got more crack than a Harlem hooker. Anyone have a good head or engine if cheap...

My mate has acquired a 1hz powered 75 series pick up. Only problem is gearbox was missing. He has a 80 series manual bolted on to it but transfer box is all wrong. Would any other transfer box fit the 80 (early 93) manual box say possibly one from a 60. Levers are all over the cab floor and...

Last Saturday morning on the A17 at long sutton grey 80 series lifted. Looked a well loved truck. Was towing my caravan with my 80 and mel behind in her 100 towing my mates van as he didn't want to damage his newly aquired bmw x4 by towing with it. Yeah I know!!!! And today within a few hundred...

Avalanche thread seems to have disappeared. Anyone have any idea?

Brought this one today. Don't know why really but I just like it. Needs a bit of love and the paint is shit. But its fairly solid its mot d till November. Got a shed load of parts to collect tomorrow also in the deal.

Manual 80 in gear and I asked Mel to move it. Need I say more!!! New bonnet and bumper corner required. Also pushed the wing in on the 100 series but thankfully that popped out zero damage. Oh and now I don't have a porch on the house anymore. More importantly nobody hurt. And I managed to...

Finally found a full set of my compomotive wheels. Got a set of as new BFG km3s mods too. Look cool same thinks. Only problem now she's gottago up. 2 inch should cut it I recon.

Happy Christmas to one and all. Let's hope next year improves somewhat. Keep safe and look forwards to getting back to normal as soon as we can. I'm off to make a start on my sloe gin. All the best from Gav Mel James Harriett and little Jack.

As above another 60 down in bodmin for sale. Roof and cills look a bit peachy!!! As usual can't do links but sure someone will help with that soon. On e bay now

As ever can't do links. 1980 60 series 90 000 miles looks original. On fb marketplace and eBay. Is this the shape of things to come?

Anyone else having a problem loading pics. Get all loaded up and says "having problems please use a valid message. Any ideas anyone.

Can't do links but fairly solid looking 60 for sale on face book market place in ottery st Mary Devon. £1200 might be of interest to someone. I already have my 60 project so be good too see it saved before the export man snaps it up.

Last night at 640pm my little boy Jack William made his entrance to the world. 8lb 10 and fighting fit. Mum's doing good and hope to be home later today. A new brother for James and Harriett.

Well!!! I just cant help myself. Always wanted one and a few weeks back I got one. Bizzare circumstances but that's a story for another day or round the camp fire. She's a 1990 manual diesel. Scabby on the wings and doors as always but solid everywhere it matters. She runs and drives but is...

Think it's a 73 soft top diesel. Can't do link I'm afraid. £995 seems like a steal to me. Needs collecting but no massive biggie with a decent recovery truck. Worth a look I'd say

Not sure how to do links but just seen Chas,s old cruiser on eBay. £9900

Breaking an Isuzu 3.0 diesel trooper. Took off the intercooler Saturday to strip out injectors. It my babysitting day with Harriett today and looking out of the window staring at the scoop on the bonnet started wondering if it could be made to fit on top the old gold 80. Plumbing and bracketry...
