| 524 forum posts 38 photos | mate turned up today asking if the box he had ( contents in pic below) was worth an hr of my time checking over a s2 landy he was buying. lot of chucks are on mt2 with mt3 sleeves fitted and some mt1-2 adaptors. got all the chuck keys and it appears to only be surface rust. so was it worth an hour looking rd one of my favourite vehicles? hell yes

 2156 forum posts | Having spent over 35 years with my last series Landie and having others before it, well worth it. My advice to anyone looking for a series Landie, check the chassis/check the chassis/ check the chassis. then look at the bulkhead and the rest of it. It would seem that Richards are not making series chassis at the moment whilst they concentrate on Defender stuff. |
