How difficult to source and retro fit jump seats?

Looks like a good time was had by all!

Say, i didn't think of that. I sold my 65 mustang to a guy from Vancouver. I'm going to have to look into that option.

Gotcha - thank you.

The more in think on this the more i'm leaning away from this truck. I do appreciate that they already took care of the compressor and bushings but between the radio, gps, e brake and cracking roof i don't know. If they want to let it go for $8,500 i'll seriously consider it.

No i was thinking of telling them i want everything fixed and starting off at $12k offer. I really like that the compressor and bushings were just done. *edit* Sorry - it's an HSE with third row. Actually it has everything i want except for rear entertainment.

I was thinking $12,500 with everything sorted. Maybe start by offering 12?

I found an 06 LR3 with the options i want on it at a local dealer. The dealer specializes in Land Rovers and other "outdoor activity" vehicles and immediately replaced the air compressor and suspension bushings so i don't have that to worry about. After talking with them they said the truck...

It was a 95 5 speed. Pretty much perfect body, great paint. Interior was a little rough, but i've seen far far worse. Some telltale signs on the interior of being parked too long: some rust in the sill plate screws and mildew in some of the door jams... Had a little trouble getting the CDL...

Lovely indeed! Like i said, it was a great car to learn to turn a wrench on. I had fun replacing the rear diff on my 82 and a bunch of other jobs. Gained a lot of confidence in what i could do myself. Good vehicles for teenagers in my opinion. Nothing like necessity to accelerate the...

No doubt. Mine was an 82 spider. I learned so much from that car. My next will be a 74, either spider or GTV, i need more room in the engine bay. I replaced a starter on my 82 and it took HOURS to wriggle that thing out then back in.

Another vote for color matched. It's going to look ************* awesome either way... Such cool rigs.

Update on my quest in case anyone give a crap ;) My wife has become convinced my rig needs to be a 7 seater. That rather narrows my choices down. I briefly suggested i build a d1 5 speed i found locally and she referred to it as an Alfa Romeo with 4wd (i'm a recovering alfaholic) and that i...

That's lovely. I really like the low profile rack. Perfect. What wheels are those?

Nice! I'm having a hard time imagining doing the things in a newer rig i would do in an older one. Do you have quite a bit more storage space in the LR3?

Just as an update, i'm kinda leaning towards getting a Discovery 1 to build for my adventures and buying the wife an 07-09 RR HSE or a newer LR3 only because of the size. When we pack up the whole family for camping space is definitely an issue with 3 kids and 2 dogs. She currently drives a...

I guess the biggest holdup for me at this point is the sunroof leak. Everything else i feel confident in tackling. I need to research what others have done with them and decide if it's within the realm of what i want to tackle.

Swung by on my way to work. Records are incredible until 2008 when they end. It's only got 10k miles or so since then though. So in the last 15 it had the head gaskets replaced. New brakes including reservoirs. New water pump. New cooling hoses and other parts related to cooling that i...

Thanks Ray. BTW just finished reading your build thread. I'm inspired!
