LOL. I had to stand up on chairs to reach to rub the trunk lid. You notice the tail on the truck not closed? The bed is 19 ft.

Yes it is. Belonged to a n old man in Diego Martin .
We asked him to sell it about 20 years ago and he ran us. When he died , it was sold to a man in Santa Cruz. I asked him 5 years ago to sell it, he said no. . About 2 years ago, a friend who lives around the owner, called me to say the guy got a stroke and is willing to sell.

I feel more pride watching a fellow Trini do work like this rather than watching the President House.

Excellent stuff spann.

The statement was $15 - 30 g. Dismantling a high end vehicle and repainting with good material and doing a proper job isn't cheap .

The good shops does give you back extra bolts and parts when the put back everything together after strip down.
You end up with spare parts for free.

I does hide it so nobody knows it have extras . Lol.

Really though , if I assemble a vehicle , nothing misses. Every bolt match and correct colour in place.

Thanks for the compliments .I finishing up a rollover X5 M , it's the most dismantling I ever did in a very long while. All the parts had to be painted off , the shell painted and then reassembled. Reassembly going to take all week I feel . It looking almost perfect already . Thank God for the lock down .

Are there some sort of stability issues with these range rovers and X5? Or is it the attachment to the steering wheel is the problem ? Great work resurrecting these beauties

It's more like instability issues with the owners . The way some of them drive ......

The X5 owner blacked out and hit the front wheels so hard that eveeything in the front suspension got damaged . The impact caused the car to flip .
