So is there a ban on projects in the house of ON? ;D
 A couple of years ago after a few drinks,I was coerced by SWMBO and her best friend, into signing a note saying I wont build anything else! Keep getting a reminder about it everytime I want to do another vehicle. Im working on ownership of a campervan at the moment! Good Luck with your quest!

Ban was lifted for the right vehicle  ;D
Unfortunately due to other commitments, someone else got to it first  :'(
Was a series 1, short wheelbase Land Rover with a P6 V8  :'( :'(
OK so not exactly a Rod, but I've had V8 Landy's for the past 20 years and regret selling the last one.
This was it, loaded up being exported to Holland  :(
