MAR
Some shots from MAR.
Nice thing about 2018 is I'm fairly certain I'll be getting my own trailer.
S1 reversed off the trailer just fine, and then refused to go in any gear. Not the most glorious way to go to camp, but hey, it was being towed by a Land Rover right?
The great thing about taking it-broken-to MAR is that you know that you can get a lot of help. Tom S (brother of previous owner), John from Maine, Ollie's dad, and any number of folks jumped in to assist what ended up being a stuck reverse detent. Remove floorboard, unbolt l-bracket that holds the spring into the dentent, ungunk and we're back.
Since it's her truck, she willingly busts her knuckles on it-as this pic of a bunch of dudes standing around while she puts the front drive shaft on illustrates.
Thus she got to tool it around the field first when it got back in the fight.
Purchased on a whim, slightly premature as the PhD completion gift but now with a job lined up and the doctrate almost done the wife'd dream truck will be getting a lot more attention in 2018 than 2017 saw. The good news is there really isn't 'that' much to do. I mean, other than still figuring out the whole transmission thing, rewiring it, and such. I'm looking forward to some fresh canvas on it next year too.
