Landrover series 3
Built on a Galvanised chassis with a 2.8 V6 engine mated to a 5 speed LT77 gearbox. Gearbox has an Ashcroft conversion to mate the original transfer box to the LT77 maintaining the series 3 features and drive ratios with an extra gear.

Engine is a 2.8 V6 from a Granada giving about 140 bhp similare to the old 3.5 V8 which propels this to 70 quite quickly for an old girl.

Parabolic springs from Rocky Mountain

Bulkhead has been repaired with new foot wells and A pillars and is now in good condition.

Chassis is Galvanised looking about 17years ago but is still in perfect condition.

Rest of the body is in good condition but is not perfectly straight this car has been used in trials but is not badly damaged.

Wheels are Wolf wheels with Kumo mud tyres spare is the same.

Interior is as you would expect but with Defender seats.

The Landrover drives well with good acceleration and top speed but please don't expect modern car handling this is a 35 YO Landrover.

The chassis has not been modified so a return to factory spec in the future could easily be achieved.

MOT until Feb 2018
Looking for £3500

First Landy I drove was a lightweight fitted with that engine and it was amazing fun! I am so glad you are far away from me or Id be driving over and I know where that would lead.
