Project: Wilks - Page 7 - Land Rovers Only

Not much done...ive had to work onthe Disco since im driving it about 70 miles on a daily basis...got the rear wheel bearings regreased, treating the ball joint to some PB blaster so that can come out easy, and these last few days ive been getting home so tired...but hopefully I can get everything rolling again for next week. Should have everything I need by then.

Completion Date is still set for June.

Say,

How are the rear panels (withthe glass in them) attached to the roof?

I'll get some of the pictures from teh past weeks uploaded now, after I resize them.

01001010 · 03-04-2008, 08:14 PM

Sorry Guys,

These are all the general pictures I have now. Besides the ones I use for documentation and bolt placements, thats all.

I'll get some more as this week is already showing to be productive.

stolenheron · 03-04-2008, 08:38 PM

01001010 · 03-04-2008, 08:45 PM

BTW...lol...if anyone ever tries to take the Hood off a series...you dont need to unbolt anything...it slides off to the LH side

Funrover · 03-04-2008, 08:48 PM

JC man.... I see serious potential man.... You are gonna rock this rig!

01001010 · 03-04-2008, 08:53 PM

Thanks man! You have no idea how encouraging it is to get some support!

Although, im not moving anywhere near as fast as I wanted to, but things are panning out.

stolenheron · 03-04-2008, 08:55 PM

no need to rush lol, take your time and put in the quality effort, its gonna be a very nice rover

Funrover · 03-04-2008, 08:57 PM

Dude from where it began and what you are doing/have done ... It's moving nicely, you just need a full time paycheck without that full time job LOL

01001010 · 03-04-2008, 09:03 PM

no doubt about it! so far ive spent more money on tools and equipment than on the truck itself (not counting initial cost)

Funrover · 03-04-2008, 09:05 PM

I try to forget cost reality
lol

Little Brother; Remember, I've got a full PODS container, plus the 8x16 workshop, plus the third bedroom stuffed full of parts for my series. More than half I won't use. If you need something, before resorting to UK or eBay, give me a shout. I've got 2's, 3's and even 4's of some things.

Keep plugging along, and eventually it'll be done. Just don't rush anything. You want it done right the first time.

01001010 · 03-11-2008, 06:31 PM

Thanks Dan...I'll keep ya in mind!

Now, does anyone know how the side panels (with the windows ) are connected to the rest of the roof?

with nuts and bolts, which you won't see if you don't remove the headliners and trim panels.
