Very rotten LWB samurai restore and modification.

Post by Husky » Sun Nov 01, 2015 10:14 pm

picked up a lwb sammy from gumtree a couple of months ago, its very rotten and has seen better days but still has some life left in her, the engine runs ok and mechanically seems fine, i put a new clutch in it as the one in there was dead. i plan to retore it and get it back on the road, ill be doing a virtual lift mainly because the arches are so rotten, the top will be coming off and im going to have a go at making a custom roof, something like this.
