Approaching nearly 30 years, the aging Land Rover (Defender 110 County, Station Wagon, 300Tdi) required substantial repairs. Reliable for two decades, it served faithfully despite never residing in a garage due to its size. Rust, a common issue, needed attention.

Traversing mountain roads and wilderness year-round, the surprisingly resilient rear chassis, typically prone to rust, demanded comprehensive reinforcement with a sturdier 3 mm metal sheet. Sections were cut and replaced, surpassing the original cross member and extensions in dimensions. Assisted by a son and a friend for the final welding, company at home was provided by pets throughout the process.
