Cool Greetings from Calgary, AB, Canada!

Hello!

My name is Don and I've been a big fan of Land Rover for quite some time but only recently had the ability to buy one and here he is:



Say hello to Garth!

Plan to restore him enough to do some trails for now and we'll see where he takes me.

I'll be posting a build thread and searching the forums for help!

To know a little bit more about me, I also own a 2013 Volkswagen Golf R as my inner-child race car and live in The Great White North!

If there are local LR'ers in here, feel free to reply as I'd love to meet you all and learn how to use him properly.

Welcome. Tech manuals for the older ones in my links below. Once returned to running condition he'll take you to the Stampede in style.

Thanks for those tech manuals!

I'll have to figure out why the handbrake doesn't work as well as it should and how to fix a dancing speedometer.

In vehicles with a mechanical speedometer drive cable, usually the cable is binding slightly. You end up pulling out the center of the cable, greasing it, and re-threading it through the outer sheath.
