6:30 "I'm just a small girl so I struggled to get the wheelnuts off..." 6:50"... and now I've taken the rear axle off and stripped it down..." Absolute legend! :-D
@@LandRoverSophie i really really admire you,you remind me of the female version of myself we have the same idea on things and i spent a lot of time working on landis,regarding your lpg add a lube bottle to it and valven will never give trouble
They're so realistically priced. eBay is a terrible curse at 1am. Wish I didn't live in the city. Might be a good thing though. So many cars to tinker with, so little time and money.
@@LandRoverSophie I'm very impressed by your knowledge, it sounds like it's coming from a long experience? I know car guys twice your age that sound half as experienced...
@@landrover109ukpwilkin7 Yeah, I reckoned that, I just wanted to give her an opener to expand on the family history thing because it made me curious. It doesn't sound like stuff she recently overheard, to me it sounds like at least five to ten years solid experience working with those things. That's knowledge learned in the field...
The dislikers are disgusting. This girl is awesome at tackling these old landies and she has astonishing amount of knowledge for her age. Brains over power. BRAVO Sophie !!! And you're gorgeous too !!
As a Land Rover nut in his 50s I think its absolutely brilliant to see young folk following in our footsteps and doing such a good job of it too. Best of luck with the new project Sophie.
How refreshing to see a representative of the younger generation getting stuck into a project like this. Good on yer, look forward to seeing further progress.
so impressed with your ability and attention to detail - your are an extraordinary young lady - everything works better when it's clean - major salute for your perseverance
Awesome well impressed to se a decent young lady getting fully involved and who loves Land Rovers and who isn’t afraid to get stuck in ! Bee nice to see the finished job at the shows some day when we are allowed !
You are such a nice young lady and I salute you in the amazing amount of work you are doing. Your film production is also so good. You are an inspiration.
What a nice video. To date 35 people have disliked it. I can on,y assume they’re all in the mums’ basements, regretting their life choices. Good work, keep it up !
great! lovely to see another girl that likes old landrovers!.i got my 1st landrover in 1983...ooops showing my age hee hee. now i have a 1983 swb , petrol , im currently doing the swivels . painting housings and brake plates ,and renewing chrome balls .i used paint brush cleaner to get rid on the grease , works really well , i used e.tec black chassis paint , which gives a good hard finish , with kurust on 1st . like you ,a wire wheel is very effect , and i got a little tiny wire bush heads that clean threaded holes out......its better than doing house work lol x
I’ve always thought I can’t do a car restoration because I don’t have a large garage/workshop. You’re proving it can be done on the driveway. I’ll follow your progress with great interest.
Wow in my 60 + years messing with trucks vans and many Land Rovers Ive never seen a girl like you , Your quality of work is amazing , Keep going and enjoy doing something that most girls will never know anything about . Thanks for posting .
And insanity! How do you know a Series owner? They shout a lot, always have dirty hands, and give directions via petrol staions (At least if your stupid enough to run V8)
Bravo young lady, Bravo. You've done more work cleaning and removing grease and rust then most people would have done. Continue posting. I'll watch your project come along. Very nice job thus far. Thumbs Up!
You’re a very competent mechanic, I like how thorough you are as well as your attention to detail. Going to be a nice rig when you’re finished with it.
I take my hat of to you Sophie.....bought my 75 S3 88 brand new in 1975 when I was 23.....still loving it at 68....still going well. Started life as a 2.25d.....200.000mls later I fitted an old Disco 200 2.5di to it.....40mpg now and goes like a train. Good luck with yours.
Keep up the good work and, greetings from the Caribbean (Trinidad). Since high school, I've yearned for a Series Land Rover. Bought myself an assembled in Trinidad, 1986 Series 3 for my 67th birthday in April and the ground-up restoration is just about almost done. I think the Series is a marvelously engineered utility vehicle, a blank canvas if you will, and the owner modifies and tricks it out to suit their unique needs and taste as evidenced by the myriad of end-user configurations..... mine is of course no exception. Great to see, so many people restoring these great vehicles.
I really enjoyed your video. I live in the U.S. and I have a 1979 gmc 4x4 pickup truck. Ive owned it for 21 years. You have inspired me start restoring it for the 2nd time.
Sophie, I love the work you're doing to your Land Rover Series III & the detail of workmanship going into it. I don't know who's been teaching you to love these Landies but make sure you give them a beer. Mates of mine bought Land Rover Perenties that are ex-Australian Army and by hell things can go anywhere and take a beating. The only differences between the Defender & the Perentie is the Isuzu four-cylinder 4BD1 diesel engine or 4BD1-T turbo and the galvanised chassis. You'd have a field day with them here. Where there's muck, there's brass! It's also a pleasure to hear a beautiful Yorkshire dialect such as yours. My dad is from Yorkshire & he passed away in 2007. I miss his dialect & listening to yours makes me miss him more. My mother is from Lancashire & she only passed away recently. As a first generation Australian & living in regional New South Wales, there's not many from the north. If you can add a few Yorkshire-isms from time to time, it'll be appreciated. Hope you have your neighbours onside while you're working on your Series III in the backyard. Love your work & keep it up!
No nonsense degreaser is great and cheap. Or poundland elbow grease. Bloody impressive skills and knowledge. Blown away by your focus and determination. We need more mechanical engineers that are female. Yourself and Beth Usher are trailblazers. Keep up the great work
i used to have one of those, a 1978. Love it and hate it at the same time. Where I live, spare parts are sold like it is a brand new Range Rover. at the end I have to sold it. Nice to see you start this project!
Nice to see the comment section is mostly respectful. Like others have said I'm impressed by your knowledge and your having a go at this restoration. I wish that my daughter had more of a mechanical aptitude. Keep up the good work....DA.
Here in Norfolk, there is a chap near me who has four old Land Rovers in his front garden - cannot remember the last time I saw any of them move - shame really. Good luck with your project.
Top work Sophie love Land Rover's since 12 years old my first car was a SWB 80" Series I, now I'm working in a SWB 1978 Santana, second Santana in my Land Rover history., thank you.
Well done it’s nice to see young people especially ladies having a go at car maintenance and restorations you are doing a great job of cleaning and protecting the parts as they should be this is going to be a great when it’s finished I will be following with interest
Hello sophie ,just found your vid the other day my first car was a landi series 11 1963 ,bought it in 78 ,i now drive 08 defender,the rain gets in not like the old landi,great giro,Jeep up the good work 👍🇮🇪
Great inspiration for many people, thanks for all your time in making such a cool video 😊 To add my 2 pence worth......you mentioned free wheeling hubs, in my experience over my years of just solely working on Landrovers, in my opinion, they are the devil's work and a bit of an annoying gimmick, unless you remember to turn them on once a week, which nobody would! They cause so much damage to the front axle and steering, screwing up the top swivel bushes (lack of splash lubrication), which wear them selves into oblivion, causing all that steering wander people always acuse landrovers of having when they are worn, this then causes all the other steering components to wear out faster...... So bin free wheeling hubs is my tip, I can't see they save much fuel anyway, and they look poo! Only my opinions 😉 keep up the great work on these fun vehicles, cheers
You have really good skills. Well done! Great to hear a woman talking mechanical things, especially with such efficient knowledge. I'm a dedicated follower!
Greetings from the States. It's nice to see a young lady getting into old cars. Good job. When I get rusty parts, I really like to sand blast and epoxy, a good epoxy primer is very hard to damage.
What a beautiful woman. And also does she know about car restoration, disassembling and assembling too? This shows that women do not need to wear their pretty face or show their body to succeed on UA-cam. Thank you very much for showing us your great skills in restoring cars, especially with one of my favorite off-road cars, such as the Land Rover. Great video.
I'm not convinced - I bought one thinking it was going to make my garage work so much easier and more 'professional', but aside from specific items (like hub bearings) it was always a faf getting things *to* it or into it (if they fitted at all), add to that the cost of filling the thing up with kerosene or the water based stuff and the room to house it, and it's kind of a white elephant. A friend of mine used to use a bucket, a sieve, a paintbrush and a cup of petrol and do the same job in probably less time.
as a fellow landy owner I salute you, your determination and good attitude are a breath of fresh air , looking forward to seeing how this progresses, good luck, stay safe
OMG, wish id never watched this! Ive got that Landy itch again, may have to go find myself a Series 3 project. Also did i see a new Bulkhead and Galvo Chassis there ?
Sophie,from an Aussie Bloke's point of view you're the perfect Woman - attractive, willing to get your hands dirty & obviously a car nut! Well done on taking on such a project!
PART TWO!!!!! this is my dream car you’re restoring and I’m so impressed with how much I’ve learnt from you. Shattered you found my dream car in the Bush, perhaps i should go into the Bush and maybe another one will be there for me 😂 You go girl!! Can’t wait to see more
Haha brilliant! I’ll be honest, I wasn’t even looking for another Land Rover. But then I was sent a message containing a “ mysterious old Land Rover “ and fell in love! I wish you the best of luck finding your dream car😁

Well done Sophie, that's the spirit! Best of luck with the project. I also had my Land Rover Series (a 1967 series IIA 88'' soft top) 15 years ago. I look forward to having one again as soon as possible (I miss it more than I could imagine!). Greetings from Portugal!
I really enjoyed the details of your approach and learned loads. Re wheel nuts, skill and knowledge overcomes brute strength every time.. A real inspiration and very entertaining. Well done Sophie and more plz
New sub , love the series three , had a ex RAF 109 loved its quirky issues and problems , never failed to start and drove like a landy hahaha , great to see one so young getting stuck into a worthy project ,and saving this fantastic piece of history , love it 👍👏👌
Great videos Sofie! You are on the road to success. You are starting out with good habits that will make your Land Rover last. Take care, Shannon from the USA
Really excellent posting.! Informative and easy to understand. You are using the correct products and working the parts very nicely. Some company should sponsor this young lady... she would be an awesome representative for automotive repair.! Cheers on a good channel.
Just came across your channel Sophie, brilliant!! I cant believe how you tore right into that rear diff! My kind of girl! You really get to it, and make it look easy! I have my VW Westfalia for 40 yrs and been there with the rust, awesome to see you going at it!
Its great to see more & more girls on UA-cam rebuilding cars. They are more fastidious about it than guys are and they approach things differently meaning I can take away some hints and tricks. Great work. I think it looks like a great project
That was fantastic to watch you did a very good job presenting this video it was well put together with seeing you repair the land rover as you gave your thoughts, I liked this very much and I hope your parents back you with this kind of work for you. thank you and keep it up

Really excellent posting.! Informative and easy to understand. You are using the correct products and working the parts very nicely. Some company should sponsor this young lady... she would be an awesome representative for automotive repair.!
Cheers on a good channel.
Great to see a young lass getting stuck in and doing a great job. Very knowledgeable.
Loved watching this video and following along with your narration. Great style. Awesome project.
Just came across your channel Sophie, brilliant!! I cant believe how you tore right into that rear diff! My kind of girl! You really get to it, and make it look easy! I have my VW Westfalia for 40 yrs and been there with the rust, awesome to see you going at it!
What a girl brilliant, one in a million well done Sophie your a great inspiration. 👌👍✅💯
That you Sophie, subscribed and following. So enjoyable to see a young female enthusiast, who's actually doing the job, Cheers!
Its great to see more & more girls on UA-cam rebuilding cars.
They are more fastidious about it than guys are and they approach things differently meaning I can take away some hints and tricks.
Great work. I think it looks like a great project
Impressive! I am a lover of the Land Rover. Gives me more motivation. Thanks Sophie.
That was fantastic to watch you did a very good job presenting this video it was well put together with seeing you repair the land rover as you gave your thoughts, I liked this very much and I hope your parents back you with this kind of work for you. thank you and keep it up
