If you let me know what parts you would be after we might be able to sort something out.... I quite fancy a 130 :D
Its not a problem for me to get hold of body panels etc etc (most of them will be later Td5 - so all in very good/mint condition) - or even swap it in exchange/part payment for work on the 110 (i.e. fitting your V8 etc etc)
Just another option for you to think about lol....

Reckon the parts route might be easiest as you're a fair way away from here - I'll get some photos sorted out in the next few days and PM you :D

It's a single cab unfortunately - but yes I thought the clock was out too :afro:
Still bouncing ideas about at the mo over the best way to approach it all -basically I want to end up with a decent V8 hard top (or SW) 110, and not have the disco or the 130 sat about - with the proceeds of the 130 and disco going a long way towards the building of the 110. In an ideal world I'd have sold all three and pooled the funds together but stuff doesn't seem to be selling great at the mo - especially commercial stuff.
Are there any problems from a DVLA point of view as to going from a hi cap to a hard top?

Hi I,m in the process of starting to put a 4.2 rangie engine and autobox in my 90 so we are in the same boat as it had a 200tdi in it, decided I wanted more fun from my landy and as the rangie I bought also has gas I will be fitting that too looking forward to getting stuck in in new yr if you need any help let me know I,m in Glossop derbys.
Cheers

Nice 1 - not a million miles away then - no doubt there'll be questions a plenty :oops:
All being well the rangie should turn up tomorrow :dance: - need to hunt down a torque converter now though. :-k
gt.jacko:
I,ll ask around for a torque converter a friend of mines son has got a 90 with a 3.9 efi with a rangie auto box I,m off to look at the installation of it in new yr will ask if he has a spare torque converter for you as he has a lot of spares lying around.
Gary ... :)
Lumbering Jack:
That'd be great - it could possibly need a gearbox too in the near future :doh:
Going to start stripping the front end of the 110 down ready for the transplant - most likely going to swap bulkhead whilst am on and give a bit more room to work. at the same time.
:D
