Description

Land Rover Series 2, with the lower numbers manufactured and not the 2a which'd higher units produced by the factory ) 1961 petrol, 88 inch with Safari Roof. That's 63 years young.!
Supplied new in mist undercoat from the Solihull factory ( built date 02. 03. 61 / departed date 10. 03. 61 ) to the London Airport back in the day.
Nine previous owners from new on the V5 document, but the previous owner had owned it twice.
I don't believe for the minute the mileage is correct on the speedometer as paperwork shows higher figures.
The carburetor was cleaned and rebuilt with a John Caddock service kit ie needles / gaskets many weeks ago and i've just fired it up today 19/ 12/ 24 without any problems.
New front brake shoes and cylinders / hoses / leads / spark plugs / lift pump etc in recent times.
It has the deluxe seats which are in great condition, plus the originals are available........ also some spares etc
Free wheeling hubs.
There's the overdrive and control stick knob bar etc included in the sale but this's not attached but is in good working order by the looks of things and shouldn't have been taken out in the first place.
It's been removed from the aluminum casing for inspection, so needs popping back into place. Perhaps if your worried then new bearings are the order of the day.
The heater and windscreen wiper motors all work.
Rear tow bar, plus one attached to the front bumber old school style with two towing eyes.
Period tyres with plenty of tread left.
The paintwork is very tired but if you like the TV Series Strike then the Olde look is best.
The chassis and bulkhead're in very good condtion with a rear quarter changed outside my ownership in the past to a high standard, so no welding required what i can see with the naked eye.
The roof lining needs replacing, it runs fine but perhaps a damn good service should help it on it's way with trouble free motoring in the future.
If the adverts LIVE then it's still available.! Please phone if you're interested. Lots of supporting paperwork / service / mot's from over the years comes with the vehicle etc.

Please phone me on the details below only if you're genuine buyer & can collect Cheers

#The asking price's the lowest i'll take for this classic 1961 Land Rover rarer lower numbers produced Series 2 and NOT the 2a version.
Just don't bother me with offers, thank you.!
