It Was Listed As A "Parts Truck" - Rescuing A CHEAP Disco 1 & Getting It Back On The Road !!!

[@dexburwell]

That’s a solid win….. minor rust,chock full of parts, AND it runs. $1K …. 👍

Nice score, I just picked up a white '95 Disco a couple weeks ago myself. I hit the jackpot with mine as it has cloth seats, no sunroofs and a manual trans. It's been sitting about 12 years but does run and drive pretty well. Needs a good cleaning, wire repairs in the dash from rats eating wires and some new seals on the windshield and rear quarter windows. Already has a OME 2" lift as well. Can't wait to get it back on the road...or should I say off. Good luck piecing yours back together. It's always fun working on cars others have taken apart.

Great find. After owning 4 r380 D1s though, I’m slightly over the 5spd, most were abused and need everything.

Nice score. Can’t wait to see the update in the next video.

[@Ryskimus]

Cheers from Raleigh! Good find, I'm curious to see how this goes. It looks like it'll be a fun project.

[@RunDub]

Thanks!!

Doesn't seem like a bad deal for $1k, nice work!

[@Land_Raver]

Great find. Similar situation to my P38. It sat up for 7 or 8 years and I just started driving it. Fuel pump was done and left me stranded a couple weeks later.

White on Black IMO is the best Disco 1 color IMO

Thanks!

Love the D1s! Thanks for saving! Keep us updated on your progress! Keeps me excited about my work efforts on my personal D1s! If you happen to take of those side steps, let me know, happy to buy them from you! Also, curious, have you tried upgrading the D1 lights or have any ideas? Living in the countryside the standard D1s lights are not great!

[@AddictedMotors]

Will do! Haven’t tried to upgrade.

[@azabujubangaijin6607]

@@AddictedMotors Also, just curious if you have a top 5 actions after you buy a used D1...? e.x., oil change and what oil, replace hoses, plugs & wires, etc.. Thanks again!

[@AddictedMotors]

@@azabujubangaijin6607 man, every truck is different. They all need everything but an oil change and fluid check is usually first.

Cool video, you just popped up on my recommended videos and I think I’m going to have to look back through your previous LR content - just got myself a D2 V8 and keen to get it back to its best. Look forward to following the progress on this one !

[@AddictedMotors]

Thanks! Literally hundreds of videos to look back on.
