Our Projects
A selection of our recent projects and repairs.
Jeeves - Meet the long nose series 2
The owner of this one of a kind long-nose Land Rover is constantly coming up with new ideas to improve this vehicle, and we love making them happen. This includes a custom stainless steel exhaust, a snorkel with interchangeable heads, a heavy duty winch bumper, and internal linkages for the diff lock and high/low selector. These ideas can be tailored to any project vehicle you own.
The AA Series 3
This beautiful example of a refurbished ex service AA Series 3 came to us for a new set of brakes. While it was in, we carried out a full inspection and found play in three wheel bearings. After notifying the customer, he decided it was best to replace all four, maintaining the high standard of workmanship.
Recovery Truck Defender
After spending years working at a scrap yard, this custom Land Rover Defender tow truck was purchased by a private collector who wanted to recommission it to a roadworthy condition. We carried out wheel bearings, door locks, a brake master cylinder replacement, a rear axle rebuild, discs and pads all round, and a full service and MOT. The vehicle now sits in a local museum, The Great British Car Journey, for all to see.
Custom Exhaust for Case Tractor
A local farmer came to GSR Services to have a new exhaust fabricated for one of his tractors. On arrival, there was very little left of the old system, as it was completely rotten. First, we removed the old exhaust and cleaned up the manifold ready for the new system to attach.
For this build, we chose 4 inch pipe to replicate the original system, this time using stainless steel to prevent the corrosion that affected the old mild steel exhaust. Once the system was fully welded together, we polished it to give a shiny finish, which the customer loved.
Custom exhausts like this can be tailored to any vehicle, from cars and 4x4s to tractors, trucks, and even tanks. If it has an engine, we can make a custom exhaust for it.
Farm Land Rover Defender
A local farm Land Rover TD5 was brought into GSR Services with a failed clutch master cylinder, leaving the vehicle off the road. On inspection, the fault was quickly identified and the clutch system repaired to restore proper operation.
While the vehicle was in the workshop, we also carried out a full service to ensure it was mechanically sound for continued farm use. To protect the chassis from corrosion, it was thoroughly wax-oiled, extending its lifespan and helping prevent future issues caused by harsh working conditions.
From diagnostics and repairs to servicing and long-term protection, GSR Services keeps working Land Rovers reliable and ready for daily use.
