It is time to sell my old Series 2. Log book series 2, but looks like series 3 inside and out. Reluctant sale, but cannot see me using it again. Used to get me to and from work and give me fun on gentle off road tracks and in winter it was fantastic.
Re-built from the chassis up. Always wax oiled inside and out every year.
Heavy duty leaf springs added.
Safari roof.
Tax exempt, excellent capstan winch - proper Fariey one I think. Double bullbars (one for capstan winch and one extending whole front end - RangeRover bullbar I think originally). Brand new (when fitted) Fairey Overdrive in excellent order, 5 spoke wheels, 750 tyres in excellent condition plus spare.
Nicely done inside, non-standard seats that are really nice.
Stopped using it when it started to smoke a bit. Would still pass an MOT because emissions not tested on Classic Car. Insurance fully comp was always under £100.
I suspect a dropped piston ring as compression is a bit low on one cyclinder. But engines are cheap.
Could do with a repaint (not a big job unless someone wants a mont LR)
What does the forum think this is worth?
Would it be better to take capstan and overdrive off and sell separately?
Thanks in advance, will try to dig out some photos - taken in the days before digital.
