Hi there, from Punta Arenas, Chile. Amazing work by a very good talented craftman. At home we have 4 Landies. 2 year 2000 (90 & 110) and 2 1967 S2 (88 & 109). Surprised when I discovered that you are Croatian because my grandparents by my mother side were born in Kucice & Mimice, Omis, on later XIX Century and then came to Chile before the WWI. I found you channel just today but I watched all the episodes in a row. Just say you CONGRATULATIONS. I have RT your link into our wsp group of Land Rovers Patagonia with members all along my country so they can enjoy it also. Pozdrav iz Čilea.
Thank you very much!!! 😊 I'm glad you enjoy the videos and that you have Croatian roots, the world is a small place 🙂. Thank you for sharing the link on the videos, we will keep filming them especially now when we almost see the end of the project and can't wait to drive it. Pozdrav iz Varaždina 🙂
@@slightlytunedI watched the Ep 8 but the engine you put in isn't an old LR 2.5 like the ones I know. However, you didn't need a flange to adjust the connection with the speed box as I can watch. We put the 12J LR engine in our 2 '67 S2, with no flange also.
@@sfvegap there is a adapter plate, the flange, it was laser cutt from 12mm steel and made so it centered itself on a main shaft, after centering the middle was cut off with a hand saw and it's just a black 12mm piece of metal that is visible around engine gearbox connection.
@@BrandSt-q3d yes, sure just need to measure it. I'll do it later today.... Driver side(left side) is narrow compared to passenger side (right side) so after the modification both sides are wide about equally
Love watching a true craftsman at work.
Thank you very much! 😊
excellent work im also restoring a series 2a and watching you gives me encouragement / fantastic stuff cant wait for the next one
Thank you very much!! 😊 It's a lot of work but hopefully it will all be worth it in the end 🙂
Good Lord! It was rotten. Good work as always. That bulk head will last forever 👍🏽
Thank you very, very much!!! 😊 Hopefully no rust in sight for a few decades at least 😅

Excellent work aga!n.
Thank you very much!!! 😊
What engine is in it? You had to modify the transmission cover and bulkhead to fit the engine.
It's 2.5 diesel from the video part 8 ua-cam.com/video/vSN6pndB3qQ/v-deo.htmlsi=9srEZOihVE1_3kra

@@slightlytuned Hi, there. Thanks for your answer. We use the same system to adapt engines with speed boxes from diferent cars.
Would you mind sharing the dimensions of the footwells pls
