Yikes, that's tough. Wouldn't have expected that after a rebuild. 😕

So it turns out the machinist made a mistake and he replaced the valves, guides and gaskets at no cost. Truck is back on the road and starting to get used for stuff. Tomorrow I hope to get to the paint shop to match up the camo colours. Still lot's of little things to do, I have a suspicion my generator is not charging and I have to find the time to test it.

I snuck a look at your truck when I came by for those Range Rover parts. It is a great looking restoration.
I look forward to seeing it out!

I found another piece of the RR I take a picture of it and send it to you.

Thanks Colin!
Any piece helps. As soon as my Blue defender is finished, I'm going to start working on restoration the RR. The 3.5 needs a refresh as it's getting tired, especially on #8 cylinder. And I put another dent in it 😂😂.
Hope to see your 109 out soon .
