Hey guys I've noticed that quite a few people in Pakistan are big fans of the Range Rover Classic (me being one myself), but no thread or anything dedicated to them. So I've decided to take the first step in what will hopefully be a full fledged fan club.
I intend that this be used for any info regarding restorations, maintenance, engine swaps, availability of parts, etc and not to forget showing off pics!!
I'm adding links that i have found useful during the restoration of my 1974 2 door, hope you guys do too.

I, and hopefully other thread watchers, will be more than glad to answer all relevant queries to the best of our knowledge, so please don't be shy in asking ANYTHING about the Iconic "RANGE ROVER CLASSIC"

Seriously a beautiful end product, excellent work done, just needs a little tidying up on the interior, the exterior is spot on MashaAllah

Thank you all, i hope these pics leads to the rise of more Range Rover enthusiasts in pakistan. For all those wondering parts are no longer a big issue as u can see from my pics i was able to restore the wreck. And nore is it a very expensive project.
@farazarif as i said it is still a work in progress, and the interior has intentionally been left like this for now so i can enjoy a little offroading and or tours without the new planned interior being ruined. check the pic below for the plan

This is absolutely brilliant. Very very impressive. You and your master workers deserve a big pat on your backs. I had heard of this, but couldn't imagine such a fine job was done. Mashallah.

Thanks you, means a lot to be appreciated for the work, cause trust me there was A LOT of work involved.

I have seen this ride a couple of times personally and I must say that it looks like a brand new 'out of the showroom' example.

lovely restoration.

i wonder how the rig was kept before.

air cleaner's lower bowel (encircled red) contains oil and it should be kept vertically:o

Anyway pleased to see you replaced it with proper air filter box.

Durrani90 (Durrani90) 2012-04-17 08:30:05 +0500 #20

actually it had a conventional filter in it :s the genuine millage on the rig was 64k miles before it was rolled
