The following blog is a record of the trials and tribulations of restoring a short wheel based1968 Landrover 2A.
My background in car restoration is somewhat limited. In my younger day, I restored a Morris Mini 850 and a Nissan G60 Patrol. They were done in my parent's garage with a minimal budget. These restorations were done on the cheap and in the end, the results were less than inspiring.
This did, however, spark my interest in one day doing a proper ground up restoration in an old classic and bringing it back to its former glory. A couple of decades later, I celebrated my 50th birthday and I comfortably settled into my mid-life crisis, I have now decided to give it another go. This time with my own workshop area and a bit more of a budget behind me.
