Gonna go take a good look this weekend... I'll let you know RE rust.
It does have sunroofs... I guess it's not perfect :)
Oh.. there is a slight power steering leak coming from somewhere I am told... we'll see, inspection pending!
Looking a adding a disco to the fleet. I miss my 04... found one, seems special - what do you guys think this is worth (private sale)? Haven't had a chance to inspect yet so don't know what the rust story is or service history but here are the details:
95 disco 5 speed - only 65,000 miles...

I would have been very happy to have sold the car to her but we couldnt come to terms on price. I sold to my other serious buyer and it will have a great new home on the east coast.
Sold the truck offline to the highest bidder but at a pre-determined price. As far as the dealer is concerned there is nothing wrong with the truck per the pre-sale inspection that was performed. I still feel that there is a very slight rough idol for the first 60-90 seconds before the engine...

Looks like the offline offer didn't quite meet my needs in the end. I am gonna roll the dice and see what ebay yields!
Just a fantastic truck - sad to see it go...
close to asking.... Excellent... mine is on ebay right now... I am seeing a ton of interest from serious buyers... We'll see where the dust settles on Sunday night when the auction ends.
UPDATE: got the truck back today - purrs like a little kitten. The dealer put 30 miles on it, let it sit over night, drove some more and no more misfires now that the heads have been done.
I'll post back if there are any issues that arise. I want to thank PT for his great support and for doing...
For what it is worth APCO fixed my t-case and I have a 2" lift and oversized tires...
They also replaced the rear 3rd member, again under APCO extended warranty...
Shop is putting the heads back on tomorrow or Monday - I'll keep you all posted.
The dealer manager was pretty good to work with.. he basically asked me what I thought was a fair price to pay for the labor to stick the truck back together after all that had transpired...
Update - heads should be done and will ship back to me in the next couple days. Report back I got today was that #4 valve was definetly sticking due to carbon buildup and there is some confidence that this was likely the issue causing the #4 misfire. The head will go back on next week and that...
Update... my local tech told me "valves look OK to me..."... I sent the heads over to PT for inspection/pressure test/valve job/resurfacing/etc...
Turns out the valves are in really bad shape and there is evidence of #4 valves not closing...Lots of carbon buildup on the stems etc..
Engine is...
well the 4.6 "re-built" short block would be a used block that was pressure tested, a used crankshaft/ pistons/connecting rods that have been re-balanced, new camshaft, new oil rings, new timing chain, etc..
Yes this is what I understand the process to be but my dealer does not have the kit to...
I did speak with roverland when looking at engine options, I also have a line at a re-built 4.6 short block for a good price...
After speaking with several sources, including my local mechanic - I am just not ready to condemn the block yet.
There was some small amounts of "coolant or oil" in...
