Heavenly. I do and I work there.
We've used Falkners and Eibach springs in the past. My own experience is the Eibachs have a more durable finish but I have Falkners on my car.
Are you in Sussex UK or Sussex US? If you want to come take a look at them and have a chat then you're more than welcome.

The single adjustable ones have a clicker knob on the top eye, heavenly. Turn it clockwise until it stops for full stiff. 24 clicks anti-clockwise from there and you're fully soft.

Richard,
I'd be interested to know more. I might even be able to help you out. Shoot me a blatmail if you like.

Vertical top fitting? I'm intrigued. Is this an early De Dion that had a spigot for the top eye like the live axle chassis?

Not yet but I've put some new pictures up.
You'd look after it Norman I'm sure you can convince HM.

Some new images:
Rancho in-cab adjustable shock absorbers - obviously not fitted but included in sale

I've been watching eBay. A glance at the completed listings shows clean ones to have sold for £1,750 to £2,100. Other people are asking over £3,000 but they don't seem to be selling.
I paid £3,250 for the Landie. Of course, she worked then I guess I'm watching the bottom end of the 'blade market

Regretably I'm listing my V8 Landie for sale ☹️
She was an original factory V8, since coverted to EFi Range Rover V8 and four speed auto box. She has a Range Rover back axle and disc brakes all round plus rock sliders and a massive scaffold pole front bumper. Even in the slightly green state she is in, she looks the business*.
She hasn't turned a wheel for the last 3 (?) years which has obviously had a negative effect on her appearance. Suffice to say, there is rust in the rear chassis crossmember and the footwells/bulkhead. And the doors. And elsewhere.
N.B. She does not run. She did turn over but I suspect there are a combination of electrical gremlins.
There would be a lot of work to get her servicable again but she would make a fantastic project for someone with the space and time.
Sadly, I don't have the space to strip her apart as I once intended.
I honestly don't know how much she's worth. Optimistically I'm looking for value equal to or a trade for a complete '98/'99 Fireblade suitable as donor for the Caterham.
There are a couple pictures in my signature below.
Please blatmail me or post on here if interested.
* I have a fantastic pair of rose-tinted goggles included with the Landie.

I'm attempting to put a website together for work but all I appear to be doing is browsing Blatchat! I reckon what we need is a "go to work" button next to "in the office?" up top, that locks me out for an hour when I should actually be being productive!
