I hated landys until a few moths ago until my boss gave me his 55 plate TD5 for the winter. The things amazing lol never even had to use the diff lock going up hills from a standstill in 2 foot of snow! Awesome bit of kit.

Good progress on the engine though. Sure it will fire up fine :)

Cheers matey!

Its all good mate, always happy to help out, we are even now after you stayed at the services with me when the sport refused to start up on our way to billing lol.

9.30 am - 10pm, helped along by unlimited coffee, smokes and chicken dinner

Well done lads.

you cant beat a bit of a mince about on a sunday lol

Nice work, good photo journal of the events also.

Its probably a godsend this happened when it did Ade (ie prior to the national) & not somewhere on the side of the road between your place & Derby!

Good work lads, good to hear the new engine fired up, theres not a lot to stop a 8v carb engine from firing up really!!!

Good pics too Ade
