Hi every one as you prob guessed I'm from the uk and love this forum ,but I wondered if we could have somewhere on the forum That us Brits could chat about things like , where to get materials etc , or maybee a section for restorations done in the uk? you guys from over the pond can tell each other where you bought your resin and wood etc, but that's not much help to us , does anyone else from the uk think this might be a good idea? hope I have not offended any one out there by suggesting this,I think the advise we get from you guys in the USA is fantastic as not many people in the uk would even attempt to do this kind of work , if you want it done here you need to pay someone as the advise is not out there , and those that do know what to do keep it quiet like its some sort of black magic, or something that you should not attempt unless you an professional boat repairer,

I can't say there would be enough to make a separate category, but you could start a thread that would list your sources and hopefully others would add to it.

Do you have any tips for sourcing an inexpensive rear axle housing for a 62 Land Rover IIa.Rover F 2-2-11.jpg

Maybe we could trade a shipment or two.:)

Hi that would be a good idea if there was not enough people in the uk to have our own section

On the landrovers we have a place in my town that export landrover parts all round the world maybee try them http://www.johncraddockltd.co.uk/
