The 'E' Type Forum

Landrover Series 3 Pastel Green/Light Green is so close to the Jag Willow Green I doubt if the two vehicles were not parked together you would not pick the difference. Check the colour difference which will be very small, if any and if you go back to the LR colour here are the codes http://www.land...

I've just bought a Land Rover that I'd like to paint in willow green as per S1 E-types.
Could anyone tell me if theres a RAL code that's identical or similar?

Buying that If it’s correct would be MUCH cheaper. My shell needs everything. It’s VERY rotten.

The Mangoletsi kit is worth every darn penny!!

Hi. I just found this on Ebay: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/256364010262?mkevt=1&mkpid=2&emsid=e90001.m43.l3160&plmtId=700008&mesgId=3015&mkcid=8&ch=osgood&bu=43130652543&trkId=8bd387ca-cf06-409f-95b7-4d3f1d8f7199&cnvId=700003&recoId=256364010262&recoPos=1 Could anyone in the know tell me how old this...

Can it be the relay if it works to one of the sides? Is there one relay for each side?

This has got to be the most suitable :)

Holy thread resurrection!

On my dad's 68, the needle is dead but the odometer is working. I guess this means it's the gauge that's faulty in some way. Has anyone experienced this?
Maybe a good excuse to go and buy a KmH one instead of the MpH which is fitted at the moment?

Done!

Not sure if I've got different pedal pads than you, but turning them, won't help....



I guess its bending time.

Thank you for a thorough and good explanation. Much appreciated. I'll have to see what I do as this is obviously not a two hour job :)

We've got a 68 car with a 3.54 diff, and a shed of a car from 65 which I presume has got the 3.07 diff.
Is it possible to remove the CWP (Does the 65 have an LSD btw? ) and still keep the 65 as a rolling shell?
I'd like to rebuild the 3.07 and fit to the 68.

I've fitted a Mangoletsi kit on my dads LHD 1.5. My problem is that when I want to brake, I blip the throttle. Do these pedals look correct to you guys? Could they be RHD pedals? Ideally, the pedals should have been an inch to the left. Maybe the Mangoletsi throttle pedal should have had the flange ...

Another way. Would it be possible to mill the fins off, having the entire cover polished?

Maybe this is sacrilege, but I ended up like this...,,



The pipe is from a BL car, so aaaaalmost in family :)

Never thought of that. What a great tip!!

On a side note. Unless you're looking to be 100% original, wouldn't it make sense to get the water out of the dash once for all? Why not fit the pipes/hoses in the engine compartment?

I cannot fathom why they did it this way. Six bulkhead holes. Could've been zero...

Damn. Too late now. Longer hose

OK, great, makes it as easy as it could. Thanks.
