N*A*M's new Rover

Post by **N*A*M** » Mon Jan 26, 2004 8:54 pm

Got a Rangie with EFI, ZF and a burnt interior. It's a POS and I haven't got any pics (busted camera). Needs dash, loom, heater core and various other crap. It's gonna be a fun crash course on Lucas!

Can I play with you guys now?

looks kinda like this one but not as mint. same arizona tan colour though.

it's a pretty severe burn. everything that was near heat was well and truly scorched. definitely needs a lot of work.

i'm going to sew some elbow patches onto my tweed jackets now. :finger:

You got it wrong NAM like Dick Solomon, put tweed patches on you leather jacket. Close but not close enough.

it is actually a good thing the loom has burnt as you can now replace it
get rid of the efi...chuck on a rochester 4 barrel..
stroke it to 5.0l
chuck the volvo's under it...
and go take on sam

so it begins...

took ownership of the vehicle today and have pretty much finished stripping out the interior. it looks fawked and it's gonna need a lot of work but my motto is "things can only get better!"

no camera so no pics :(

RANUKI might have a complete interior for me so that would save muchos troubles.

LOCKY - thats life.

Actually - thats just what you're in - business.

We all are in the business of making something out of nothing.

nah i couldn't handle having a spare vehicle. i already own too many cars that don't work like they should.

Post by **Evan** » Mon Feb 02, 2004 6:07 pm

So whats Ben doing with it if he is selling parts ?
big project happening ?

I am a bit like NAM, to many cars that dont really work right... thats why i bought the disco, and cause locky sold his about the time i thought it would be a good idea cause i found out i could get my 5.3l chev.
