Further Info:
According to the vendor, this highly attractive early Land Rover could quite possibly be `the best restored Series 1 for sale in the UK today'. And so it might be, having been treated to a recent comprehensive chassis up restoration by experienced craftsmen, during which all bodywork was evidently removed, stripped and repaired as necessary. The bumper and window frames were galvanised, and all the body panels prepared and painted as individual components prior to the final assembly. The 2.0-litre petrol engine was fully overhauled by historic engine specialist Agra Engineering and the gearbox stripped and checked. The list of new items fitted to `2773 HK' includes: clutch assembly; exhaust system; brake drums, shoes and cylinders; front springs; and hood. The Landie has also been rewired with the correct period-style wiring loom. Needless to say, the vendor now regards the vehicle as being pretty much `as new', with only installation miles added since its completion.
PLEASE NOTE: This Series One Land Rover is an 88-inch wheelbase model and not an 86-inch one as catalogued. It is also began life with a diesel engine but has since been converted to petrol power.
