right first the bad news, the landy series 3 109 is going to be sold :(


the good news i have just brought this got it on friday, its a series 2A 88' first registered 1968,brought for £350, its tax exempt :D the chassis has been strengthened front and rear and it has been rebuilt twice. it has in it a V6 essex 3.0L  8)  :twisted:  and has overdrive fitted, a full soft top roof. i will have to replace on of the brake pipes (i think havent had a proper look at it yet) as trying to stop you have to realy stamp on the brake, only realized that when the brake is pressed the fluid pours out  :roll:  it also has quite a bit of rot in the baulkhead on the passenger side which will need sorting out (would like some help in what is the best route to take with this patching ect). the head gasket needs replcing (its bubling) as the bloke who owned it befor raced a BMW 3 series down the motorway and he thinks this is what caused it  :shock:  whilst the head is off i was going to get it skimmed (both of them) and also it needs converting so it can run on unleaded (any help for what work is needed would be appriciated). so today i took a few piccies (quite a few actually) the canvass has now been cleaned though.o it also has a roll bar, and loads of histor (recipts for everything and photos from both rebuilds ect) and a heater that actually works  :shock:   :D .








the rot in the baulkhead




the V6

i was also hoping that somone could tell me what this button is for?

located in the drivers footwell near the clutch?

it used to have an alarm sytem but the wires were cut,was wondering if it was somthing to do with that?

o and my drive at the moment, mom doesent seam 2 happy about it, cant think why  :lol:

AbyssDJ:
hmm.. tell me more about this 109 ;)

edy:
well, it needs a new chassis, 2.25L 4cyl and gas converted with certificate you can collect it when you like for £500  :D  :wink:

AbyssDJ:
whats up with the chassis mate?

edy:
well basically, its compleatly gone, if you were a good welder you could probly (with a bit of work mind) patch it but it would probly be easier to find a half decent second hnd chassis and do a straight swap on to it, i would do it my self but do not have the space (plus the weather has been prety unpredictable) so i brought the series 2 instead.
