Tan interior - ugh.... I have a white/black LR3 - much more better Silver/black is a pretty good looking combination as well - my friend Tyrone bought this one 14 hours before he took it on a trail ride in North Georgia.

Not to be too picky but that's a 1971 - last year of the SIIA with the metal dash and metal grill. The 1972 Land Rovers were the first of the Series III with the plastic dash, plastic grill and all synchro transmission. Its relatively easy to retrofit the SIII transmission into the SIIA and is...

Both of youze guys are bad influences - I went to Costco today to pick up some LED shop lights and saw that 1000 lumen flashlight - somehow it wound up in the cart too....

A friend of mine bought this 2006 LR3 around 8:00 PM Monday night - 14 hours later he was participating in a trail ride in North Georgia on street tires in a completely stock vehicle. It has about 87K miles on it and he got it for just over $14,000 - it's the HSE model with the rear locker...

Good idea for a thread - I'll join in with my first Land Rover - a 1961 Series II that I bought in 1972. It had a very rusty frame and a Ford 260 ci V-8 under the hood so it was capable of very Un-Rover like acceleration. I kept it for about two years and then sold it and bought this 1967...

Yeah - well since your Disco couldn't make it up the hill to where it was parked....

Absolutely - I shoot pictures of the Land Rover events for the fun of it and am always happy to share.

I've got a 1972 Coleman model 220F dual mantle lantern that's a little beat up but it still works like a champ - you can't kill it. However I managed to snag a US Army issue Thermos brand Vietnam era single mantle lantern at a yard sale about two years ago that is a monster. It's OD and built...

I really enjoyed the weekend - lots of very interesting classes and eye candy. I've just posted my photos from the weekend here: http://solaros1.smugmug.com/Land-Rover-Events/OVERLAND-EXPO-EAST-2014/ Excited Expo Attendee below:

It looks like a hydraulic capstan winch...

Bill - wouldn't look too closely at the following photo if I were you - this Santa Cruz full suspension bike is way, way too tempting....

One of the neatest campers I've ever seen - even my wife was impressed with it.

There is a real story to that Buick - maybe we can get together around a fire and I'll tell about our adventure doing the Pan-American Highway with a few detours in a Buick deuce-and-a-quarter all the way to the Panama Canal Zone in 1974. There were breakdowns, scary moments, adventures, border...

One of the classes is a regional Q/A on Mexico and Guatemala - I've driven to Panama from Georgia but it was in 1974. We went through Guatemala and Lake Atitlan in a 1966 Buick 225 but things have changed a lot since then. I've signed up for the class just to get some updated information...

I got my e-mail on Thursday and have already signed up for a pretty full class schedule - that was pretty hard as there are so many choices. I signed up for the event pretty early so I guess I was in the first wave. Really looking forward to a great weekend.

I'm pretty sure that's from a Ford truck - late 50's to mid 1960's I had one made from a mid-sixties Dodge truck - came in real handy for hauling stuff that was too grubby to put in the back of a "nice" truck.

I like my Maggiolina - fast up and down (1 minute up - about three minutes down due to having to tuck in the tent sides) and all of the bedding stays in the tent freeing up cargo room inside the D-90. Everything I need for a long weekend easily fits below the rear window line in the back -...

Bus depot has a neat suction cup mounting system for awnings - would work great with my Kelty carport awning. http://www.busdepot.com/b9013

Full package, camping on site - since its my first expo I thought I'd jump all the way in. I'll be there in the Land Rover 90 towing an Eriba Puck travel trailer. Some of the Virginia and Georgia Land Rover guys are planning on setting up a Land Rover campsite.

I've got an Engel 35 and have been very satisfied with it - using it about six times a year for long weekends. I know at least six other campers who have Engels and none of them have had any problems with them. My only regret is not getting a 45 quart size - the 35 is perfect for a solo camping...
