Thanks Clayton and Jellybean.
Clayton, got to have a middle seat! No seat belts in rear so SWMBO has to go in the back 
Jellybean, I've not spotted you for a while. The Defender still going well?

Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge I was asked to chauffeur at a friends wedding. Scrubs up ok. Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge Had a great visit to Slideywindow's, but it made me even more curious about its history. Its vin tells it was originally a basic (hardtop, pickup or soft top) diesel. But at some point was converted with a genuine Land Rover 21G 3.5V8 and the interior looks very original, although the condition makes me wonder when how old it is...

Lovely interior (and exterior of course). Would like to see more detail around the rear windows

Agreed Def9, it is nice.
Please tell him not to convert that lovely vehicle to a full soft top, as a summer play vehicle. He thinks it is his vehicle and he can do want he wants with it. Nope! |

Thanks all. Anything particular Dinnu, inside or outside? More than happy to take some photos but as it's not originally a SW I don't know how original it is.
Nothing that can't be put back Charles  James

Thank you JOW240725. I bought a set of early Td5 sliding windows, so might convert my 1988 90 to a SW. I think it would be safer for my kids. For the outside, I am in the belief that the windows location (fore/aft, top/bottom) remained the same through all the years. So for that I can measure. Internal trim is what I would like to replicate and I do not know anyone local that has an early one to be able to copy. I think the early ones are more series ish. I only know Td5 and later trim unfortunately.
So maybe 2 photos would be good, one for the side panels and one for the quarter windows trim. 1988 90 Hard Top, 19J Diesel Turbo, Shire Blue - Restoration ongoing 2012 90 CSW, 2.2TDCI, Santorini Black |

Hi Dinnu, apologies for delay V8 was all tucked up but due to my current Defender issues I've got the V8 in use so will take some photos tomorrow. Just a caveat I can't confirm its originality. James

No worries. There is no urgency. In the mean time I managed to find one picture online from 1986 90 that is/was for sale. Interior panelling looks very much like yours. 1988 90 Hard Top, 19J Diesel Turbo, Shire Blue - Restoration ongoing

Looks great! “A word of command has made these silent figures our enemies; a word of command might transform them into our friends. At some table a document is signed by some persons whom none of us knows, and then for years together that very crime on which formerly the world’s condemnation and severest penalty fall, becomes our highest aim.”
— Erich Maria Remarque |
