109 Expedition rig build

This thread represents, in my opinion, "what Expedition Portal is about". It serves an example of both the intent of all of us here, and the attitude that permeates throughout the whole web site.
Thanks for sharing with us and as serving as inspiration, very real inspiration.

Fantastic work. Getting my D90 back to near-new condition years ago was a lot of work, but looks like a twiddle of thumbs compared to this undertaking.
I sometimes fantasise that someone with your skills found that truck in Ivory Coast and rebuilt it... sadly, it's likely just a fantasy.

50 pages now. Took me 3 days. Loved every bit of it!
In the prosess of my own 617 swap, been sitting on the parts for a few years now. If my rover could have a fraction of your fit and finish Jim, she'll be a beauty. I know probably 10 of the 50 pages are compliments but well deserved, again great job. I have a slew of questions and when I get my thought together I will try to present them in some type of logical order. Better yet I will just start a build thread of my own.
I'm from the New England area originally and really miss the northeast, looking at your pics makes me want to move back. Maybe someday. But, if you ever want to take a trip to the South East for some warm weather vacationing, you'd be a welcome visitor here. We do have some of the prettiest beaches in the world (Trueman Show was filmed here because Sea Side is nothing shy of perfect) and last year held our first Sand Rover Rally.
Again, great job on the complete re-fab of your New Landy and hope that new main shaft is sorted out now.
Cheers,
Dave

Pulled this truck out of the garage this weekend. Haven't driven it in over a year. Spent the past four days cleaning it up and going over it. Everything worked except the speedo and one parking light. Spend a few minutes on that stuff and the truck is 100%.
If anyone is interested shoot me a PM.
