Hello all,I live in the west of Ireland but am originally from Oxfordshire:5bcheers2: New to Land Rovers but think I'm going to enjoy the journey! Just bought what I assume to be a series 2a ? Needs a bit of work but nothing too daunting, just need to learn the in's 'n' out's.....complete novice at the moment!
Here' some pic's that I took today(once it'd stopped raining for five minutes)!
Hope some one can give me some pointers on what I have here?
So far I've been told.....It's got a red engine block,so is a five bearing crank(2.25 Diesel)
It has a mark 2 hydraulic winch.

Its a Series 2 or 2A with Series 2a or 3 wings. It has the earlier Ser2 lights in the grill most likely a Series 2A. Looks a goodun, whats the chassis like, ? Solid?

Cheers for the reply 'Crashbox'!The chassis seems pretty good, just one bad spot from what I can tell....the drivers side front spring hanger? Just about to order a new one(front spring hanger dum Iron?) Do you have any tips on fitting these? To be honest I can't wait to get started on it:) Got a new set of springs included in the sale,also brand new door catch and door top with all the seals. Will need to give the engine a good service as its belching out a bit of diesel smoke and misfiring a bit ...but no knocks or rattles!:)
