In the video I range Rover Range Rover II 2.5 TD now I have a Mitsubishi Montero III GDI 3.5 Before it was Arab Ford Explorer II,the machine is not bad but as a SUV it's bad,on the track as the train goes but on the road...its not this element,then the automatic transmission on all Americans is very weak for our terms and front CV joints very weak.A real SUV should be on the bridges and all these independent suspension McPherson-for girls))))) Now to fly I want to buy for the construction of the discovery I and Range Rover classic

I here a bit discouraged by pricing on repair parts to the boat motors! Bought piston fingers on eBey, found the cheapest suggestion but here yesterday monitoring market of repair parts in our Russia and found the same fingers, new, original at price in 10 times cheaper, disordered a bit, in fact to the cost of repair parts yet and delivery is comparable to their cost.Many stuffing-boxes and bearing befit from an auto and price in times cheaper.That it was clear to what it: I am a lover of motors Johnson Эвинруд, unfortunately I can take the liberty of to buy the motor of old years of producing and requiring repair only, the first motor was Эвинруд 30 year of producing 1978, now Johnson purchased 70 year of producing 1976.Here such I bought him and he became such, a parcel will come in a week, already in аэпорту Кэннеди on a dispatch and as a parcel will come, I will collect an engine and while time was did cosmetic repair.

Yes, we would be interested to see more: this section of the forum is for just that sort of thing. We share all kinds of interesting things between us.

You don't sound like you are bragging at all. The staircase is beautiful. What kind of wood did you use? And did you do the stone work on the wall?

Okay! As far as possible, and time will show some of my more rabot.it's like a hobby.Ya to do everything himself, if that do not know or do not know how, I ask, tips, read books and browse internet.Ya stick to the principle: If you want to was well- Do it yourself ! My income is very modest therefore made of pine stairs on a metal frame, plus metal karkasa- strong, does not creak, easy to process and the most important thing that you can fix oshibki.Steny just did it myself, it decorative tiles made of plaster.

Very nice work ! Do you have the decals for the Johnson or will you just leave the cowling white ? Stairs turned out beautifully !
A lot of us are into restoring old boats ... Have you restored or considered a boat project ?

Yes of course! Stickers colleagues have already sent me stickers, even technical ie will approach the performance factory .Today wait for a parcel from the US with engine parts and completely reassemble the engine, I change all bearings, oil seals, piston rings, sleeves in very good condition .Ya very scrupulous in matters of technology and make it like new. I have two restoration project two boats, one made for myself and one for the other, to be consistent, do not lay until the picture on the engine, and then, as the interest and all the rest will have to enter your suzhdenie.Imeyu another restoration project Johnson 30 .Photos sort will not, I think, and it will be clear

Very cool ! :cool:
Is it a wooden hull or fiberglass ? When you get ready to start the restoration maybe start a thread on it over in the repair and restoration forum ..
We all love projects like this ...

No, this project is finished, it was my first boat, I do not even PVC boats has never been friends always had boats. This aluminum boat built in Soviet times, these boats are very much still with us because made the defense industry for the population and the quality is excellent it was, it's not Chinese crafts))) By the way this boat is an analogue of your American boats of those years at least very, very pohozha.Prodolzhu upload photos. During the years of operation of a boat on the left was formed 8-10 paint processing I can tell you is not easy to clean off all of this, when it was decided not to do it mechanically and himicheskim.Ne clean off abrasive is broken anodized metal layer which performs the function of protecting the metal from corrosion I must say that the metal used for aviation and aircraft construction, and therefore did not want to disturb his original state.
