Ordered chequer plate sills. Then bottled it, so fitted the bowler sills . Very happy, just breaks the white up a little more and nice to have them solid now. A bit of a fiddle to fit, bulkhead to chassis bolts had to be replaced, plus you have a bit off a gap below the doors. Not so bad on a dark paint but it was very obvious against the white so I wrapped the bottom half of the door sills and painted the arch inner corners.

I do like the Bolwer sills with Fire and Ice steps! James

Doubled up the fog and reverse nas lights. Made up some extensions and straight forward from there.
Also removed my 3rd row seats, and got the carpet and dynamat up the sides. LS engine on route from parts worlds which is also exciting. Next idea in my head is a wheel change. . Dan is tempting me with a set of works 18” sawtooths. Quite like the idea of these and the croytec silver alloy handles, window blocks and fuel cap??

Silver and black and black will look great on that.
Who 's doing the engine conversion for you? |

First dibs on your old wheels if you want a change. |

Will the tyres on the twisted 18’s fit the works sawtooths? Andy

Thought I would just change my thread title to suit the LS3 install starting in a few weeks with redbeard, should be a bit off fun Andy

Honestly can’t wait to do it and learn a bit along the way. Plus doing it with a mate is even better. I have been using this 110 as my daily but collect the new berlingo next week to keep me going and take the pressure off the defender. Andy

Tyres should fit works 18inch sawtooth style.
Looking forward to the progress! Are you not tempted to use the newer LT1 engine instead? More money but GM having stopped production of the LS3 I thought more people would be moving to the LT1. |

They had this ^^^ discussion on FB a few weeks ago. IRB and José Amorim seem to prefer the Coyote engine now. James
