my rover

#1 Post by unimogfever » Thu Sep 23, 2010 10:17 pm

hi all, here's my new to me defender. I picked it up in Nova Scotia a month ago. Did a cross country road trip with it. Like it a lot.

thanks, its 83.

the whole trip was great. I picked it up in NS, then took ferry to NL, spent 10 days in NL, then back to NS - PEI - NB - ON - SK - AB -BC.

only problems I had were weeping oil around that plastic cap on passenger side front hub, and a worn out drive gear inside the wiper motor.
