- Our 'simple' engine rebuild and new paint job has turned into a seemingly endless to-do list lately, with new tasks and challenges popping up left and right! Safe to say we can't wait to be back on the road again soon...
See you on the next one!

Thank God my motor had already been professionally rebuilt. I respect you giving it a shot hope it all goes smoothly.
For someone who is not a qualified mechanic or fabricator, you are doing an excellent job. Punching well above your weight.
What a nice compliment!
Your doing well Glen, most guys spend years rebuilding “ classic “ cars, which is what Nigel is, & it’s so much more rewarding when you do it yourself, keep going & push through, you’ll be fine 👍
Great job. Well done!
Exciting to see the engine back together! Never ending character building tests 😅
Great work, he'll go another 40 years no troubles when you're done
You'll find Glen that the Series gearbox is very simple albeit fiddly to re-build. Luckily yours being one of the last of them has improved Syncro's compared to earlier versions
Great to watch it coming together. Fair play for having a go.
Love watching this stuff and your 'give it a go' attitude. It will hold you in good sted for the future.

Nice work mate! Knowing how to fix everything will keep you from ever getting stuck! Thanks again for the wonderful video!
you are one smart man enjoy
Admire your patience and have a go attitude. Love the vid guys!
Nice work mate. Crazy amount of work you're smashing out quite quickly really. Keep it up
Good stuff!
Mate, doing awesome, having a crack with humour and good grace is admirable, you both and Nige will be fine…
Love watching your videos! You’re doing a fantastic job with this rebuild.
Awesome job, ure doing great with it, shud run like new once u get it back on the road
Looking good mate ! Am impressed.
It's amazing the masking tape stuck. I painted my van recently and masking and paper would just fall. So much swearing and grrrrs.
Good luck with the work, I did a much less of a refurb of my Series 2 in 1969 and it was still going strong in 1978 when I regretfully sold it. Not much different to yours either.😶
I replaced the rear crank seal when I last had the engine out. Unfortunately I didn't get it back in perfectly straight and I missed the silicone grease so when I started the engine it pissed oil out into the bell housing and I had to take it all out and do it again. Good luck! 👍
Here's hoping that's not the case with us! hahah
Doing a great job Glenn . It will be that pristine in the end, you won’t wanna use it or get it dirty😂😂😂
Great video ! Enjoyed watching the processes. Can't wait till next video. 😊
First comment in two minutes and 9 view lol.
Love your work guys! Keep up the good work!
And your lucky too that yours has the removable gearbox crossmember too
Have you thought about cleaning up the springs while you have some down time , I've chamfered the ends of each springs and ground the top edge of each end spring so it doesn't wear the bottom of the spring above it , has made a difference , just a bit smoother ,,,
Should read spring end !!!
i think the 2.25 cylinder head has o rings inside the valve stem?
should of rebuild gearbox with quality bearings. if you have it that far apart. There is a bush for 2nd and third which craps itself. I think croker on youtube has a video on gearbox rebuild. It pays to get quality 1st and second sychro hub if the box was jumping out of gear. Anyone else can suggest something?
Glen are you using a tension wrench on the bolts? If not you should be . Your doing a great job you will soon be a Landy expert
Yes I am thanks :) It's just not very exciting watching me torque them all up hahah
What paint did you use for the engine bud?
It was an engine enamel I bought online. Worked an absolute treat!
Yehhoo first
