Bugger! With you gone I was enjoying my position as 'most handsome Land Rover guy', now it's back to second place. You've got a good nose for finding these treasures, both the trucks and the characters you keep company with. Excellent video.
Hope to see one of your excellent videos soon too 🙂
Ahhh Mr Foreman, you are the Boy Band of the YT Landrover world, a fine,impecibly groomed, young lad with too much talent and high production values!! I am not sure how Wilms has a big enough stick to beat back the hordes of squeeling young lassies!! you just can't change that my freind, shoulders back, enjoy the praise and keep shining in the spotlight that is rightfully on you. I am pleased to be back behind the varoious wheels that make this circus roll into town . All the best to you and the good lady Wilms for the holidays and coming year.
what a sweet little girl! just looks super, paint shows its age. Looks great just like that.
It was a great wee truck
Very, very nice little Rover 👍
It is a cracker little wagon.
So so so good that you’re back on the very small screen!!!!!!
Ha yes, the screen is getting smaller or Im getting fatter (or both more likely)
"been a little while, been busy". LOL Understatement of the year. Good to see a new video.
Ha, yer, I do get busy and it would take a full episode to update the last 12 months, its nice to be back making a few vids and chasing rovers though.Thanks Ian

Great to have you back!! Amazing you can still go into a bank and withdraw cash!!
Thanks Bob, yer it was not easy, I had to order it and go to the next town as my bank didn't have enough and could not get more for a few days. The world is changing.

All the Best, awesome my first motorcar at 17 years old was a 1957 SWB Series I, and had the same perforated plate as hitch
Nice one - this car is called George too as it happens
Good to see you back. I was only thinking the other day how the electric conversion was going.
Thanks Rod, there will be an EV update soonish :-)
Great to see you back and firing on all... well sounded like 3 ? Looking forward to more content soon. You have been missed.
Cheers Steve, that little 80 runs like a swiss watch!! a 70 year old swiss watch :-)
This makes me very happy! Congratulations on owning a real one. 👌 Bloody amazing!
Thanks Martin, it is yours for your visit when that Swedish snow forces you on a jet across the world to the far south coast!!!
Great to see you guys back!!! Have a safe Christmas.
Thanks! You too Steve!
Welcome back mate. The Cooma area is part of my heritage but live on the south coast now. I’ve had Landies since ‘71 and love ‘em. Will do a patina resto when the prices are more realistic.
Thats great Ross, we'll have to have a south coast channel meet up !!Prices have come way back in the last little while, seems to be some nice cars about for sale, they will still ease more though as thing tighten up with the economy sliding. All the best neighbour 🙂
@@VintageRestorationsAustralia there’s a few Landie nuts around here in Moruya. Lol.
Good to have you back mate, look forward to some great content.
Thanks Steve, lots of stories to come, thanks bloke.
Merry Christmas Mate!
Cheers Graem, same back at you.

Nice to see you back, sorry to hear about your old dog, looking forward to seeing what you do with this one
Cheers
Cheers Tim, I sure to miss that old dog, she was my shadow. Will not do too much to the 80"... but that said, they always hold surprises :-)
glad to see you again, hope everything was all right last year?what a beautiful series one; I wish you a blessed christmas time, greetings from germany,
Thank you Ag, It was a bit of a crazy year for us, lots of ups and downs but that is the way life goes sometimes, you just have to deal with the cards your dealt, suffice to say life is an amazing trip :-) All the best to you and yours for the holidays and coming year over there in Germany.
So glad to see you back! Really missed your videos. Bloody brilliant. Hope you have a great Christmas because you've just made mine.
Thank you so much Stephen, I appreciate that mate.All the best for the holidays and coming year, we can share a few more adventures here :-)
Dude, you're back, Hurray!!!
I've been waiting for your videos, a whole year has passed!
Where did you disappear to?
Thanks TP, i did comprehensivly explain in the video "been busy" :-) life gets in the way sometimes and priorities shift, back doing some more silly stuff again though.
@@VintageRestorationsAustralia The main thing is that he is alive and well!
I'm waiting for a video about 107 STATION WAGON
Great to have you back again missed your vids. Looking forward to more Landie adventures. A merry Christmas to you and the family from South Africa 🇿🇦.
Thanks Douglas I appreciate that and all the best to you and yours for a safe and healthy holiday season and year.
Hey Steve! Happy New Year from Oregon USA. So happy to see a new post and congrats on the S1! Was sad to see the 107 go after all the work and the videos of trips you took in it. Looking forward to seeing some adventures in the new buggy!
Thanks Skookum, it was kinda sad to move on the old truck but it has gone to a good home and I get to play with new projects.
You’re back!!! Thanks for the excellent content, as usual.
Much appreciated!
I was surprised that this one was for sale for as long as it was.
Me too, Smurf, it just got to a price that I could not let go by knowing Eric and the car.
wow your back cheers steve ,stu should do a raymarine install on it
Not a bad idea but Stu is a busy fellow now he's back in the suite and tie.
So good to see you back! Sorry to hear you've lost red dog.... Have a Merry Christmas ... All the best to the family
Thanks Geoff, all the best for this year bloke.
Nice ride Steve. 👍🏼
Its no classic Datsun but...
Great video good to see your back with an 80”. But what is it with Aussies repainting Land Rovers (badly) in that shade of green. My imported 107 could of been painted out of the same tin 😂
Thanks Scho, it was likely that was the only paint available in regional areas where most Landys lived, they are tractors after all, a nation that makes do with what's at hand, I actually like it and they look Aussie. on the verso, I do fail to see the appeal of shinny 70 year old cars.
Merry Christmas to you and your family. So good to follow your adventures again!
Thanks Porter, same back at you and yours.
👍👍👍🇬🇧
Thanks Mark
Good to have you back with more interesting content. Was that Brown Mountain you were carefully descending? Have a Great Christmas and looking forward to your next offering.
Yes indeed it was Brown Mountain Russell, a beatiful drive but can get a little dodgy at times in the fog and rain. All the best for the holiday season to you too.
What a Christmas present to see you back.Looking forward to more in the new year. How did the electric conversion turn out?
My 1955 107 resto is ready to start bolting it back together!
MERRY XMAS CHEERS PHIL.
Thanks Phil. Look forward to seeing the 107 back on the road!! All the best for the year.
