Thumbs up Just bought my first rover!

Hello my name is Robert and I'm from New Jersey. Im at college studying Automotive Technology at Alfred State up in NY. I just picked up a 97 Disco 1 for $850 and yes it does have its share of problems (Leaks oil, leaks PS fluid, loose steering, headliner held in by push pins). Even through all those problems it still made the 300 mile drive to my college where it will under go a full powertrain rebuild. Not a complete stranger to "difficult" cars to work on (also own an RX-7 too). Im excited to bring this Disco back to its former glory!
