hi serg,
yep, same stuff as in the damp uk, used a lot for pipe boxings and veneer backings. it is banned in several US states due to links with cancer if inhaled. tom said he liked it as he could use epoxy wood fillers to get curved profiles. it has held up very well internally and external considering my total lack of painting maintenance |

Very interesting Vehicle have you got plans to restore it in the future or let it evolve as a usable 90? Defender puma dormobile camper

I would love the time to maintain it in the condition it should be kept it, but at the moment I would consider selling it!
it is the best handling land rover that I have ever had - combination of koni dampers, lowered by 30mm, stiffer anti roll bars by J E Engineering, and good off set modular rims (tyres are 235/85s) it has got the lightest clutch in the world - heather mills could use it my 4 year old son and I go out green laning in it 6 times a year and we take it to eastnor. it had a turner recon engine in it 4 years ago and I have only put 4k miles on it since |
