Sorry for the delay in response, and thanks for the kind words! The Maroc Challenge was wonderful. Really, really eye opening for me, having never really done anything like that before. Much tougher than I expected. Much longer days, much less coddling by the organizers. Being used to a...

And a few more...

Sorry, finally figured out how to post photos. Here are some...

I'm reluctantly selling my 1989 Range Rover Classic. A veteran of the 2015 Maroc Challenge (a 3000km off road rally through Morocco) and my daily driver for some time now. It's a rare-in-the-USA 1989 Land Rover Range Rover Classic, 2-door, with 5-speed manual transmission and 3.5L EFI petrol...

Personally, it would never occur to me to request a specific number, and if I were in charge I would probably find it annoying to accommodate all sorts of special requests. So to me, it makes more sense to issue numbers in order. Plus, it make seniority self evident. Lower numbers were...

Okay, quick update: Over the last few days we have been overhauling the suspension. The springs and TerraFirma dampers are in, plus new ball joints and steering drag link. All new bushings... it's getting pretty ship shape underneath. All the brakes are getting replaced, and then my trusted...

I leave December 6...

JB Weld! That actually WASN'T on my list, but it is now! Thank you! I totally forgot about that... As for spares, I didn't list them, but I'm bringing belts, hoses, filters, ignition components, one front and one rear wheel bearing, tie rod ends, and all fluids. I figure if anything more...

Okay, quick update: I'm still very much in the planning stages, but I have taken stock of what I have, what I think I need, and started getting the parts ordered to get the truck ready for December. First off, I had the technicians who check and repair all my work cars pour over this one, stem...

Man, this rig is SWEET. Awesome work!

I go through stages, but right now a lot of "Alt Bluegrass" makes the cut. Bands like Trampled By Turtles, Old Crow Medicine Show, etc. A good bit of reggae happens to find its way onto my playlists, too, although pretty much only when I'm driving off road. I don't tend to sit around and...

Mine got here to Spain in a matter of days, which is astonishingly quick, and man... it's gorgeous. Heavy, packaged with style... what's not to like?! Already representin' in España!

Fantastic! I can't wait to hear about it!

Oh, those look awesome! The "TabLock" looks right up my alley, thank you! Now, I wonder how the heck I can get it here to Spain without doubling the cost. lol

Has anyone mounted a tablet on their dashboard or windshield? I need to mount a relatively small, 7" Samsung Galaxy Tab for navigation, and I'm curious about what options you used. Any suggestions on how to make it durable and stable enough for rough terrain? All the mounts I see are cheap...
