It essentially had no offside chassis rail left, apparently. My dad had to ask the garage very nicely if they'd even allow him to drive it the 3 miles home along very quiet rural B roads so he could then sell it to a LR breaker.

New POD Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 How much is a new galvanised chassis ? Can you get one? https://www.terraintechparts.com/products/land-rover-defender-90-200tdi-galvanised-chassis-with-galvanised-cross-member Years ago, a fabrication company I used to visit occassionally for work, had a contract to take and strengthen * brand new BL mini rear subframes, and then get them galvanised before shipping to a mini restorer, who was building Cooper replicas for the Japanese market. * They seam welded them and added additional Gussets if I remember correctly.

See the link in my signature "What I don't drive." My dad's been in the process of rebuilding a 1958 Series 1 on a brand new galvanised chassis for a number of years now. I don't even want to know how much it cost, though! I remember him telling me how much the 4 NOS pistons for the engine were. More than what I spend on a whole car on average (admittedly that's not hard to achieve). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What are you afraid of? Your crooked MOT history being researched? Or is there some elusive car identity theft going on from photos? There's nothing to stop me printing any numberplate and sticking it on my car and running some speed cameras or petrol stations. If there really was an issue it would be generic cars that get numberplate cloned. I probably see 10 white new Fiestas a day which could all be sharing numberplates. I haven't seen a grey escort in years. There really can't be much of a market for it. Or have I missed something? But generally for me, hidden numberplate on ebay is a no fly zone. spartacus, GMcD, Shite Ron and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wuvvum Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 I always hide the numberplate when selling on eBay or Gumtree. But then I have been a victim of number plate theft and cloning and I know how much hassle it is to get the powers that be to believe that it wasn't really you who drove past that speed camera at 30mph over the limit.
