| In two weeks time I shall hook the 1979 Royale caravan to the Range Rover and head for Europe. I'll be back about mid July, and hopefully, aside from checking oil and water, I won't do anything to either! |

| We'll be going to weekend events in Shropshire, Scotland and Northumberland, more if possible. Apart from those we've about a dozen day drives around the Peak District and others from Yorkshire to Suffolk. |

Hi

I'd also like to introduce some more organisation to the garage
It'd be good to get the ute running too, just need some warm weather...

If it isn't too far for the petrol guage how about Leyland for the Dodge?

As soon as the weather warms up (if?) I have arranged with my nephew for the use of his barn to strip the paint off my Mark 2. A weekend should do it and to spray the bare metal body with a few thin coats of black phosphate.
Then, change the bulkhead on my Series 2 Land Rover. I managed to buy a really good rust free bulkhead on Ebay three years ago.
And then think about making a start on the Series 1.............. _________________ Starting Handle Expert
