Re: Some good stuff here

Indeed. I had the pleasure of meeting up with TeriAnn about 6 weeks ago in Flagstaff and drove her EFI equipped Mustang V8 powered Dormobile off-road. Totally awesome! Made my 2.25l 67hp 4-pot (which I like to think of as half of a V8) Dormie seem like a snail. :cactus:

Re: Classic Land Rover Mag - Issue 2

Issue 2 of the mag finally dropped through my letterbox this weekend. Nice to be able to put faces to names on this list, even if some of the names were changed around! And as Robin says, great cover shot!

Cheers,

There's also a bunch of pictures from the show itself which are worth taking a look at.

Re: Zuma

Hi Phillip, I live at the west end of Malibu (the cheap end!) and despite having a population of only 16,000, there's several Series trucks around town. Well okay, I own 2 of them - the Dormie plus a 1970 2A LHD Station Wagon that I've had for about 18 years. There are a couple of clubs around Los A...

Re: Zuma

More pictures........ PC060017.JPG P6050005.JPG The seats had been recovered prior to my owning the truck, so that was a big job avoided. It was always my intention to do a rolling restoration as I don't have the patience to do a complete tear-down and rebuild. I need to repair the footwells next as...

Re: Route 66 and all that pt.4

The Overland Expo is HUGE! Vehicles from all over the country gather once a year for this event. And at $10 for 3 nights ofcamping, it was good value. You could buy a 3 day pass that got you into all sorts of lectures and demonstrations - everything from knot tying to how to recover from a rollover....
