He should do that earlier in the process before potentially damaging things... He's a great detailer but not a mechanic.

I'm from Europe and since i was young i use to watch Paris -Dakar raids, big fan of 4x4 vehicles and checking out everything about the amazing Camel trophy.. if this Disco should be restored i would definitely replaced all rusty frame bull-bars, roof-rack if rusty replaced, back ladder, and side skirts replaced if are rusty, new winch, the windshield goose-neck for the air-filter looks rusty and the floor if it need it replace with new metal and then fully insulate, new parts like shocks, crank-shaft, bushings, joints, knuckles, steering rack, new brake lines + booster, new rotors+brakes, but keep the car with the body shell as it is no livery peeling just to remind anyone how tough the Mongolia raid trophy was.. Shout out from Europe !

as a Mongolian, this is really cool to see! the mongolian flag decal and the plate on the hood is sick 🇲🇳

It's Christmas Eve, I'm mildly drunk, and watching someone clean a Land Rover. Watching the process is such a blessing. I wonder if you know how much Zen you deliver with these videos? Thank you Larry and I hope you have a lovely holiday break.

Really cool video, just feeling bad for the kid who lost his father and never got the chance to actually enjoy the car with him. Thank you Larry for giving us car enthusiasts pieces of car’s culture, i personally didn’t even know about these Land Rovers. As always thank you for showing us how you bring these cars back to life. Merry Christmas and happy holidays everyone!! 💪🏻

Pasquale, you better make time to watch some Camel Trophy footage, there is plenty... It was an awesome event of team building, teamwork, mud, dust and guts.... Larry, very well done, nice video, good products, and I'm totally in love with that Disco 😍😍😍 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦

🌏WOW and thank you for the inspiration! I was one of the final two members of *Team USA Camel Trophy 1997 Mongolia* ... very grateful for a priceless experience that changed my life with so many opportunities during and after. Love the cleanup Larry and sorry for their father's loss. Larry I *might* have a few Camel Trophy stickers from 1997 in case the new owner is interested, feel free to DM me and I can see if I have them around in storage (not sure condition but glad to look). THANK YOU again for posting it!

I live about 30 miles from the factory where all the Camel Trophy trucks were built . Where I live in the uk Pershore . There is a guy who owns and regularly uses his Camel trophy Discovery . I love these vehicles due to the fact in the grand scheme , not that many were built for this gruelling event . Great video thanks for sharing . Merry Christmas from the uk .

Wow such a great car. I love how the Camel Trophy captured the imagination.

I still remember when I first saw the Camel Trophy in the 1990’s as a little boy, seeing the Disco’s in deep mud going everywhere - I fell in love with the whole thing straight away, still feel like that! Excellent job as always Larry, you’ve saved a piece of history! 👌🏻🤩👍🏻

I have zero intention of ever detailing a car to the level that you do, but you have definitely inspired me to do an incrementally better job each time I do care for my vehicles! Seeing the impact even these small improvements make is very inspiring and motivational! Thank you so much and happy holidays!

Awesome to see one of these in original condition and given a new lease on life. I was part of Camel Trophy in Mongolia as a journalist, so the first-gen Discovery from this event is very special

@@krisvannest Definitely! An awesome experience for sure. I was supposed to go back to Mongolia for the Land Rover G4 Challenge in 2009, but it was cancelled in December 2008 just before we were due to go to International Selections in the UK - a victim of the financial crisis. Although the G4 was a very different kind of event compared to the hard-core mud, sweat and blood of the Camel Trophy.

My dad LOVES THIS THING He remembers it driving by his house

Awesome job, Larry, as always. But I really love it when you add the story behind every vehicle, it just makes your work and us viewers to watch this, ten times better!!!

i learned how to drive in one of those (not a camel throphy tho) a 1998 land rover discovery 300tdi manual. I loved that truck. It was a nightmare reliability wise, in 7 years of ownership y spent about the same money it costed me on repairs. Bue when it worked it was awesome, it climbed like a goat, was extremely confortable and would take any of road abuse like it was nothing. Glad to see one back to life

Glad you called it by it's correct name "Disco" love it!!

It's always a pleasure watching a master like yourself tackle these tough car detailing jobs. Love your work!

The ending hit me in the feels. My dad passed away suddenly in late may this year. To the owner : sorry for your loss 🙏 and good luck with the sale!

OMG I am so excited seeing this. When I was a kid when I heard land rover that is what I thought about because of seeing them in off road magazines. I think I remember them more than any 4wheel driver besides big foot and grave digger. I miss some of them magazines

A great result and a touching story. Well done.

What an amazing video! It’s always fun to learn the history about these cars! Amazing from before to after the car was detailed! Keep up the good work Larry!

The 50/50 on this yellow paint is incredible

Fantastic work as always, Larry. What an awesome piece of motorsport memorabilia.

Fantastic result and it’s not a truck it’s a land rover 👍👍

Lol our Land Rover representatives on that event would always say the same thing! Ditto for afterwards when we were hired as driving instructors, it’s a land rover, not a truck. :)

Dude I watch a lot of detail content but yours is the best. Love the interesting finds, especially older Land Rovers. Merry Christmas Larry.

That looks absolutely superb 🇬🇧

I love this channel because you actually take your time and find these kind of cars in need of a detail. I'm tired of these pseudo-detailers who show up with a car they threw mud at, give it a power wash and call it a "restoration".

its super cool seeing one with a manual! i didn't know they even HAD a manual! and the Mongolian rocks make it even cooler!

Used to have a disco 2 not the same but similar, this video took me back, thanks for that

Love it! Very enjoyable restoration of a lovely Camel Trophy survivor!

Larry definitely has the best detail channel on KZread! This could have been 2 hours and i would have watched it all.

Great episode, thanks, Larry

It's gems like THIS that I wish to detail one day. That'd be a cherry on top. You're the man, Larry.

I do love your videos, thank you for making these and as always, congratulations on all your successes

Awesome transformation on the paint Larry. Merry Christmas to yourself, your wife & family, and Steve of course!

My father owned 2 of these cars when I was a kid and from factory they were incredible off-roaders. Took me to some incredible places here in North Queensland, Australia.

As a Mongolian. It’s heartwarming 🥹🥰

Love the Discovery, a legendary 4x4 , now my favourite video you have Dun 😎

Best car videos on KZread. Period. Always perfection with the editing, great content, straight to the point but always detailed, and dope cars. Great stuff, man. Love the channel.

This is now one of my favorite videos you have done, love all the history and unique build

Man , the owner was lucky to have you to deliver the story of his

Great to see you give this disco back its shine! 🚙

Back in the 90s when I was in my mid 20s and was a 4x4 nut I totally wanted to participate in the Camel Trophy someday. I always wondered why this did not continue and where did the vehicles end up. A piece of automotive history!!!

The Camel Trophy never came to Panama, but one of the Discovery did. It is an amazing build.

Awesome detailing. The decals are awesome, even if a bit faded. I'd love to redo new ones and replace. That'd make a huge difference! I hope the next owner does it. Cheers!

Can’t imagine this will hang around long, if not gone already. Stunning job again man 🙏

I'll never get tired of these videos! I've watched every single one. Such a great job as always Larry! Hoping you'll do a DeLorean one day🤞

i had no idea about this "trophy race" so it's cool to discover new things even watching a detail. i had a car with the same paint and i didn't liked too much but in this one looks awesome! of course after all that dirt was off, the car was stunning.

SO SATISFYING to see a job done so expertly. Also top notch filming, narration and editing. Bravo Sir!!! Thank you.

Hi Larry. For some of those door card scuffs, have you ever tried a “magic eraser” to take care of them? I’ve had great luck using those gently. I use a diluted mix of warm water and dish soap to act as an lubricant so that the eraser isn’t too abrasive. But it generally works like a charm. Thanks for your content!

What an awesome find... Love this one so much

Really enjoyed this video thanks Larry

Cool! That vehicle was at our shop when it was brought to the US in 2010 or so.

Man, I absolutely love the DI and DII. They are in the hall of fame for vehicles - so much character. It’s ashame the engines in the 4.6 were so bad. There would be so many more of these that survived.

Another interesting piece of automotive history. I like it!

I remember watching a TV series like 15 years ago where they filmed a camel trophy british land rover team... I remember how one of the guys on the team used a cigarette to get rid of the blood snails on his body.. If anybody can remember this show I would love to watch it again, I've never been able to find it again.

Great job bringing it back! It’s nice to see another disco saved

Great job and it really is impressive that the series 1 Discovery looks so modern.

That was One Nasty Land Rover there L. A Shame that Dad Passed away. My Dad helped me Learn a Lot of Stuff on my 1930 MODEL A Coupe. We put the Engine together out back on the Ground. I learn a Ton from my Dad. He could FIX Anything and it would work most often Better than it Did New, (cause my Dad) new how to do things Right. Maybe if he get's a good price for it, he can put some $$ into one of his Dad's Collection Pieces. Then he'll have a Piece of his Dad with him forever. I WISH I'd kept the Car's my Dad had and Gave to me as a 12/13 Year Old that I had his help Putting together and Enjoying for years. A 1930 FORD, and a 1939 FORD DELUXE 2 Door Sedan he purchased from the Original Owner with 79,000 on the ODO. Drove that for Years and sold it for $5000.00 and regretted it to this Day!!!! Great Video Larry.

Another amazing job!

Wish I could hear from the owner who brought it in back in 1997! To have the 300 tdi engine back in period here in the states must have been really cool!

You are nr#1 in content ! GoodJob (big fan from Romania)

This was awesome 😊 Thanks

Good on you for always taking on these jobs with the usual mouse nest. I’ve done it once and I’m forever scarred by that smell, watching that was difficult. I don’t see myself doing that ever again. Excellent detailing as always.

Hey I love your videos and like to see you clean up old cars 🚘 keep it up 👍.

Outstanding job! This would be a treasure.

growing up in the 90s, I acasionally watched the Camel Trophy at my grandpa's. It was the very first thing I remember that got me into cars

Steve should have a cape at this point haha the man is a legend! Great video and story behind the Rover.

One of my favorite details. I also never knew the reason why you named the trim sealant frame pro, now I want some.

As always perfect job!!! One of the best detailers on KZread!!! QUESTION: I have polished my SUV and I always knew you should protect your black trim from the polishing…but did not (was/is oxidized) now it’s got white haze… how does one go about removing the white haze and what is the best way to make the trim pop black again without adding oils…is there a method or product that will make it pop original?

Brilliant video, keep it up. ;)

These Discos are so cool. I want an early one someday but obviously when I’m at my car collecting age because these are expensive af to maintain. Nice job getting it back to looking beautiful again 😭

Wow! Astonishing job for a remarkable LR!!!

Very cool drive 😊

Such a cool vehicle. I watched one of those rallies on KZread, and it was pretty impressive what they put them through.

very satisfying video with that power wash

I've wanted one of those since I first saw one back when I was detailer at a Land Rover dealership.

I'd love a Camel vehicle , but they're so expensive here in the UK 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿. Pity you didn't know the rear badge pops off so you can get access to the lock for lubricating and manipulation. Btw for anyone wondering the colour of the vehicle is Sandglow .

You're the REAL MVP, STEVE!!!
