I know what you mean. I had a Peugeot van for a year and spent £6.40 on it. I've had a Defender 2 months and spent hundreds!

 

What I mean is that extras on a truck dont normally affect sale value (IME), so you better off taking any gadgets (snorkels, roof racks, side steps etc.) and selling them separately as most people try and buy a sound, non modified beast. Well thats what I think anyway!

 

 

Do what you wanna do though bro

[Chris Sheppard]

As frustrating as it is, selling the 90 with a paggered clutch won't get anywhere near what its worth with the clutch done.

 

Once it's done it should last a few years before needing doing again. You could go out and buy another truck tomorrow and something major could go pop on that one too.

 

I'd stick with what you've got - you know it's foibles and if you've spent out on a rear crossmember it can't be in that bad a fettle otherwise you'd have gotten rid before hand.

 

You know it makes sense to keep it

I'm sure you could do a specialist conversion

 

There's loads of room in it! Had all my kit in it with room to spare before now!
