Latest vehicle to leave us here @ Braithwaite Engineering - Specialists In Land Rover

This time a very tired looking 300tdi.

The chassis had already been replaced at some point in its life, but now it was time for a body restoration.

A replacement bulkhead, tub, seat box, side panels & new wings were required to beat the corrosion! Galvanised cappings, sill members & a new rear door fitted.

A complete panel-off respray in Santorini black.

We have also added some other comfort additions, DAB radio, later Puma seats, new rear inward facing seats & black carpet/ matting throughout, new genuine LR door cards.

Making this 90, unrecognisable! Apart from the cherished number plate! 🤩

New 2.4TDCI!

A faulty turbo, causing oil to leak through its seals & in to the inlet. Eventually causing oil starvation and then seizure!

So, a new engine, new turbo, new injectors, water pump, pipe work & anything else that was past its sell by date has been replaced, with genuine or OEM parts.
As always, thinking of the future!

Remember - check your oil daily! 🔧

Old but gold!

This old brute has just left the workshop.

Replacement galvanised bulkhead & x5 new doors.

It’s nice to breathe new life in to old Land Rovers.

One of our latest highlights @ Braithwaites’

2016/65 just 27,000 miles on the clock.

New galvanised side frame assemblies fitted.
YRM Metal Solutions Ltd

Fire & Ice side steps fitted, with a HD, matte powder coat finish, cheaper alternatives tend to rust prematurely! All four arches repainted as they were suffering with lacquer peel, we also replaced both side valance panels due to corrosion.
A nice valet to finish it off before collection.

Chassis treatment & a complete major service including online service history update. ✅

Chassis coatings need to look great but also need to add a layer of protection against the elements. We tick both those boxes!

Great to see such a low mileage example.

We’re in the process of updating our website to give you a better insight to what we’re all about.

This has given us the chance to take a look back at some of our past restorations.

Now this was one of the worst but equally one of the best & definitely too good not to share once more. Although the outer shell looked relatively tidy, there wasn’t a nut or bolt that wasn’t corroded to almost nothing. Every jubilee clip had burst or rotted away, the bulkhead was folded in half & put in the bin!
Pulleys seized, intercooler hoses turned to dust. Callipers seized, it didn’t stand much hope.

But we saved her! 🔧

Nothing is too far gone or too much of a project, not when we are concerned anyway! Braithwaite Engineering - Specialists In Land Rover

After this MT82 lost 3rd gear it was time for a new box & after a quick call to Ashcroft Transmissions, we soon had a nice shiney one to replace it.

Fitted with a new AP clutch & genuine LR slave + pipework. It is now back on the road & better than ever.
