Good stuff. We need some of you guys in the states. Or, just ship your trucks here, we'll abuse them for you.

That was not me sliding backwards down the hill. Mine is blue, that one was white.
The green series 3 vehicle has a 350 chev, the chassis is original series with a coil conversion. The front and rear diffs are standard series stuff with maxi-drive lockers and axles. The transfer case is also standard series stuff along with the prop shafts.

If you look at the thread of "Old vs New", mine is the "Old"
I do not appear much in the other videos as they were put together to show at the Landrover club meetings. I am not a member of that club and therefore the videos tend to feature the vehicles that are members of the club.
A person from the LR Club forum also questioned why I was not in the video
"I thought Ian M was going on this trip with you. Either he chickened out or was thought too ugly to include in video."
The response from the video maker was:
"Ian was there.... Ian drove up rather boringly"
In other words I make it look easy and wasn't worthy of getting in the video
