PetesPonies Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 That looks very well done and is easily worth the asking price IMO. On 5/6/2019 10:23 PM, grumpin [via Bullnose Enthusiasts] wrote: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Lewis Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 That is well done, for sure. And that Buick/Rover V8 should make it scoot. I always liked that engine. Or, at least the idea thereof as I've never had one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve83 Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 The mistake of owning one? Bingo! BMW made several improvements when they owned Land Rover including upsizing it to 4.6L (from the original 3.9L), but it's still a PITA engine. The Ford 4.6L is a little bulkier, but much more reliable, powerful, & torquier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
