Subject: clutch plates

seems to me that someone on LRO is driving a SeriesIII with a 
series IIA trans. ? I bought such a beast on friday...I could'nt
pass it up for $250.00 Cnd.....Monday I am ordering a clutch plate
so...which one?

....perhaps I should take the old one out first.

Thanks   David S.

Just a quick note to say Hi!  Rachel and I are in Calgary at the science museum
and happened across a display hooked into Compuserve, so I thought I'd send off
a quick message to let everyone know we're still alive.  

Had a great trip so far...  We've only seen 4 Land Rovers, though.  2 in
Vancouver, a 90 in Edmonton, and a billboard advertising the Disco in Edmonton.
Strangely enough, we were stopped at Lynn Canyon in Vancouver, and pulled up
next to a mini-van.  Didn't think twice about it until we got back to the Rover
and there was Dave (VE4PN) whom we'd parked next to!  Imagine that!  After an
all too brief chat, we parted ways, but I hereby dub Lynn Canyon the official,
ultra-cool Land Rover meeting place in Vancouver.  

Anyway, gotta let someone else play with this, so I'll be back on the net in a
week or so.  (Please don't reply to this address or someone else will get rather
confused. <g>)

Take Care!  

Uncle (if this is tuesday, this must be belgium) Roger

I've been feverishly putting my LR pieces together.  I now have a '59
tranny in my '66 109.  I hope it all holds together.  I already have
one unexpected leak.  The whole thing will have to come out again
(later).  So I'm off to the national -- practically in my back yard,
but it could be as bad as a desert island if I break down.  Wave if
you see the brick-red beast with the experimental bikini.  Thanks to
all for springs advice, etc.

Thanks to all of you who asked for toys, find your messages in
your mailboxes.
 
I was in the toy store the other day and found a supply of myfavourite 
Range Rover again. It is made by galoob and is from 
their micro machines range of toys. It is a "smash up" toy. 
The toy is about 2 inches ling and represents a current 5 doorRange Rover 
in an awfull set of brichts stipes with gawdy decals
on it.
 
What is a blast about this one is that the front bumper sticks 
out a bit far and when you push it rearwards it actuates a soundgenerator 
( run on wee battteries) that makes a breaking glasssound!! This one is 
always a real hoot to show off.
 
It retails for CDN $7.99 . If you want one ..........  You knowwhat to 
do! There are about five available.
 
In other news....
 
I spent the best part of Friday on the road and in the bush withtwo AM 
General Hummers. Let me limit my comments as this is a LandRover net 
(What is the name of the 4 X 4 bbs somebody please?).
 
The Hummer is in a class of its own. Extremly impressive piece ofkit. 
Incredible performance off road. If money was no object....this sucker 
would be part of the stable line up for sure!
 
It appears that there are alot more closet toy collectors out therethan 
those who care to admit it.!!!
 
Thats it for the minute,
 
Rgds
