    1971 Series Land Rover??

    No I did not say that. I said "Worth $500 to $1000 based on what I see. Could be less, but you need to really check for rust. If the rust is bad, there is zero value." I have no idea if the rust is bad or not. The vehicle in question needs to be carefully inspected by someone that knows where...

    1971 Series Land Rover??

    New body panels are cheap to buy or make as well as easy to replace. Does not seem that important to me.

    1971 Series Land Rover??

    Well maybe people in the States are crazy, but decent running Series trucks have asking prices under $2000 all the time up here. Non runners or badly rusty trucks have asking prices of $500. What they actually go for is another story.

    D1 Head gasket repair

    Timing chain and sprockets at least. The chains always stretch, killing power.

    D1 5 speed swap

    Do you guys have any idea how rare Disco 1 5 speeds are in Canada??? Not exactly a low cost suggestion...to buy a rare vehicle and use it for parts... The cheapest method would be to get someone to ship all the needed used parts from the UK. It would not cost very much.

    New Defender Concept

    S1 equals Series 1, the vehicle that he worked on. He was at the factory a few years ago and comparing it to the "current" Land Rover, which is the Defender. The DC100 concept did not exist and he was not talking about that.

    To whom it may concern

    My 10 seconds of Googling... seems to say that residental fuel oil furnace NOx limits are 18 pounds per 1000 gallons. If you have a vehicle that gets 30 miles per gallon and is at the CARB limit of 70 mg per gallon, that equates to 4.6 pounds per 1000 gallons, so the CARB limits are 4 times...

    To whom it may concern

    I'm not sure about the USA but in Canada, diesel is cheaper in the summer than gasoline and more expensive in the winter. This is due to the heating fuel usage. There are no scrubbers on diesel fuel heaters.... They burn cleaner than an engine, but I suspect the NOx emissions are as high...

    To whom it may concern

    Nope. You are wrong. It won't pass NOx in the USA. It would need urea injection and the extra catalyst system to do the NOx. Not a big cost concern with a RR, but the space needs to be designed in with the vehicle from the beginning. For "lower" priced vehicles is does not make sense as the...

    To whom it may concern

    If you want to complain to someone, complain the the US government. Their stupid non-scientifically based regulations on NOx are preventing most vehicles from being diesels.

    New Defender Concept

    You can see that it has four wheel independent suspension. Most probably it is built on an LR3 for this mockup. It DOES need solid axles and multi-link suspension on both ends to be what it needs to be. The goal is simple. Build a world beating utility vehicle. It needs to be better off...
