I've been doing nothing but Land Rovers for about the last 15 years.
Turned a great hobby into a poor example of a business but still love it.
Bought my first car in 1974... First NIASE certified in 1981.
WEnt to college as I decided that fixing crashed airplanes probably wasn't the best growth industry. How the Hell did I end up working on mid-60s technology British 4X4s 30 years later?
I have a barnyard full of late 60s to early millennium Land Rovers.
One or two of which are noteworthy.
My current rig is a '93 RRC SWB.
So far, stock engine and transmissions.
Transfer case has been worked over and the suspension os far from stock and only likely to get worse.
As for the engine, there is a 4.2 in the machine shop next to the barn that I paid another machinist $1700+ just to prepare the block... We'll leave it at the for now.
Anyway, fancy private liberal arts education, almost 20 years spent as an engineer before getting into the Land Rover game and haven't looked back very often.
Thanks for letting me hang out.
