Who are you and what do you do? I’m Sam Morris, and I’m a contract excavator driver. History of cars leading up your present 4x4 I’ve had a Ford Escort RS2000, a Morris Minor and a Land Rover Series II 109. Present 4x4(s) I now have a Land Rover 1964 Series IIA 88” Modifications done So far I’ve had the cylinder head polish and ported, and as well as a Mayflower winch, I’ve added a set of wheels and brakes from a long wheelbase Land Rover. I’ve also fitted a set of free wheeling hubs, 12v compressor running for a train horn, and for extra comfort there’s parabolic springs parabolic springs and a set of Subaru Legacy seats. For the 4x4 tours there’s also CB radio which is essential. Of, and let’s not forget the added oil leaks!
