I've been a leaf-sprung Jeep guy for the past 20 years and am considering a switch to one of the old school rovers. A Series III to be precise. What would the setup below cost me ballpark. I can do some work myself, but don't have serious $ to send one to ECR.
Subtract the cost of a Series III 88" that I can just tow away...
-300tdi(I like the mileage, power, simplicity(mechanical) and it seems to be a popular swap, if one can be found)
-5spd 380
-galvanized chassis
-coil suspension
-ps
-disc brakes
-defender axles
-I guess I can forget about heat and A/C in one of these.
-labor for the above
I think I have most everything covered, they are basically tractors.
Also recommend a shop in the Southeast(I'm in AL) if applicable. Any thoughts would be appreciated...
