Hi all, Wondering if anyone knows of any landcrab utes for sale or the best place to find one in Australia? I’m interested in finding one in any condition. I often check eBay and gumtree but no luck yet. I’m in the process of restoring a Wolseley 6 and well and truly have the landcrab bug. The utility version would be ideal for me. I am based in Scotland but would take care of all export duties if someone knew of a hidden gem down under! Thanks

I am looking to fit wider wheels to my land crab and avoid in issues with rubbing etc.
With a fully charged suspension system does anyone know if the wheels still travel higher than the wheel arch? e.g. within the wheel well?
Thanks, Stuart.

Hi,
I have a Wolseley Six with a shell that is almost beyond repair. I have the chance of an Austin 1800 shell that I would be looking to use as a basis and swap all the running gear, interior etc from the six.
Does anyone know any major stumbling blocks with this? I appreciate there will be some modifications in the engine bay for brackets etc and also the engine mounts. The front mounts look easy enough to re-position; however I am not too sure on the rear mounts and how easy it will be to create the correct mounts on the bulkhead?
The radiator cowl looks as if it is removable to leave the clear grill on th nearside.
Any help/ info is appreciated.
Stuart.

Hi Chris, Many thanks for your reply, seems o/s/r doors are a bit thin on the ground! Might have to go with plan B of repairing the door shell and re-skinning it, I'll keep my eyes peeled though. Cheers Rich Hi Rich, I have a set of rear door skins if thats useful. Not really sure on the value or if its easier to source them elsewhere? In the process if a full restoration of a Wolseley Six so that part exchange might come in handy! What do you have in the way of suspension, wheels? Stuart.
