Sorry , I have no knowledge on this subject , if I did I would probably be dangerous . As I often do , I shall refer you to the Land Rover Series One Club forum https://www.lrsoc.com/forum/index.php?sslRedirect. You are more likely to get the answer to your question there.

Sometimes I think I am too subtle for some people on this forum. I have been to Switzerland several times so am aware of it’s topography.

Yup, positively definitely 100% sure . I think .

Interesting looking building . I would be curious to know more about it . The Land Rover looks like an ex-military Series 3 . Alright if you like modern Land Rovers .

There is probably no reason to change the SU as Switzerland is pretty flat and doesn’t have many steep hills . I have an exchange ACR engine in my Series One 107” that I bought in 1999, making it one of their first off the production line . It certainly makes my 107” more lively and it can...

I can’t believe no one has suggested putting a Toyota Diesel engine into it !

I am afraid they are ultra rare and difficult to get hold of , thereby making the cost prohibitive . Brown was extremely fortunate that there happened to be one around when he needed it most .

I have a 107” truck cab and I had new sliding glass cut for the doors and the rear window . I went to my local glazing company with templates and got them to have them done . I got them to put finger grooves in the door top sliders before they were toughened . They were not cheap but are much...

The sad bit is that they will repaint it .

Sold today at Brightwell’s. Similar age but 88” , could give an indication how much yours could go for taking into account the difference in wheelbase and originality...https://www.brightwells.com/timed-sale/5244/lot/595871

I might just go along and see it for myself on the day . However, I shall make sure I leave my wallet at home!

2K? You’d be doing well to get it at that price . I did not put a guess at how much it would go for on my original post but I had a figure of £5,000 in my head . Bearing in mind that it is one of the first Series twos with it’s original engine (whether it is running properly or not) will make it...

Do you know what year it is ? From the photos your 109” looks like it is in pretty good condition and could be back on the road with not needing too much work . You should definitely not scrap it . You say you are in the Wye Valley, would that be in Herefordshire , or further south ? There is...

If you think £2080 is a lot of money try buying a LWB Series 1 chassis . Five and half grand including VAT .

That’s nothing . The scallies in Liverpool can do it in ten minutes . Wiv oot a lift.
