Default Disco ready from the mechanic

Couple of paint touch ups on the blacks.
Brand new tires including the spare.
Here's the disco I'm buying, it drove really well except the gear shifter never seemed to really lock, just had to sort of line it up and call it good. The sun visor clips are broken so I'll probably just glue some magnets on and not worry about ordering those. Same with the nets in the back seat that are sagging. Also need to grab a leather fixing kit for the seats. Overall real solid.

Just saying, that's not a new spare. That's the original spare tire.

The silver flying saucer! Nice. Yea, original spare tire. Congrats, looks like a solid truck from the two photos. Do not tint the windows on a white D1. You can pick up a rear door handle oval from a parts truck somewhere. Spray paint the end caps in trim gray. They come off easy.
