Hello from Warwickshire...

[bigjambo82]

Hi everyone

New member here from Warwickshire, I have recently purchased a SJ413 chassis engine and running hear from eBay. Thankfully all in good condition and the plan (!) Is to mount a jago geep body I have already got on it and go out playing! There are a few essentials missing so I will probably look for a donor vehicle so that's next on the list.

Looking forward to meeting a few people from here and most likely picking your brains!

James.

Jealous, I wanted to do this with mine - I had the body and everything! Then my health went down the pan again, so I just kept the SJ and sold the Jago body.

I'd love to revisit the idea one day. What floorpan are you going with in the Jago body? I was going to make a GRP mould of an SJ body and fit that into the Jago body, making a completely "bolt on" solution. Many of the Jago Owners Club guys who've done this have altered the chassis to fit the floor of the Jago body, but I don't like the idea of a wood floor in a vehicle that gets as wet and muddy as mine does.

Plus altering the chassis might make VOSA (if they ever inspect it) throw a wobbly and insist on an IVA, so I thought I'd go with a GRP replica SJ floor...
