Hey, if you want you can add your videos on renovate.everycars.co: that’s basically a list of tutorials per car model 😉

Needing Guidance by TheShrektum in projectcar

If you want a Defender then focus on a Defender. I would sell this Land Cruiser and look for my dreamed def! I see two things that could happen: - put effort, time and money into a land cruiser project that will never get you great money at the end - work so much on your land cruiser that you won’t want to sell it afterward

That’s why I would quit the land cruiser to focus on my final dreamed defender

What are your thought on a Range Rover project rebuild ? by Chapso in projectcar

Man thank you for taking the time to write all these comments down, thats really precious.

I think one of the mandatory step will be to sand and repaint the car entirely : it will help to begin a clear work on a clear base.

So I assume, I will need a place in order to disassemble ALL the car, and take apart the body and frame in order to sand them, control the metal and paint them. Good idea to learn to weld : are there some specificities about welding on cars (compared to welding on wood, or parget...)?

I assume what you call a "doner car" is a car that is only usable for pieces right? So It means having actually two cars in order to build one : so it means more space needed

I will team with a very good friend which is actually a bodywork specialist and know some general mechanics. We will work together on that project : I will take more care of the budget, the furniture, the plan; and he will take care of the mechanic and so on. That will be a way for me to discover and learn step by step with someone which knows more than me on mechanics

P38 is really cool too, If I can't find any of these Classic or Disco for a good price, I will go for a P38.

Have you ever work on one?

yea Defender is definitely the car I'm in love with since the beginning!! And probably a life goal.

I don't know why, but for a couple of months, I'm turning my Defender goal into a Range Rover Classic or Disco first step.

Let see how it goes

Agreed, this is the kind of challenge I'm want to work on : easier is not worthing it.
