Title
Summer Ready 1962 Land Rover Series II 88 SWB Canvas Top & Sides w/Galv Chassis 2.3
Description

Amazing condition Series 2 in the SWB variant with a canvas top and sides with a FULL GALVANISED CHASSIS for superb peace of mind. SUMMER READY. No TAX or MOT needed and super cheap insurance (I pay one hundred a year). 2.25 Petrol with a manual gearbox, 4WD Transmission + full electric towbar. Everything in tip top condition, starts first time, drives like a dream. Stored under cover when not in use. Maintained by myself (ex Army mechanic) and a local specialist. Bought in 2023 for 3 years “Loo” has been a treasured member of the family. I have done extensive work on it including: – Replaced all shocks – Replaced all brake drums and shoes – Replaced the starter with a hi torque motor (original included) – Replaced all wheels with black rims and end caps – New exhaust in 2023 – 3 x front seat belts – Rear wheel carrier – Spare wheel included (I just don’t put on the bonnet) – Several full services As mentioned the engine is sweet and starts first time. The engine itself is a Series 3 unit from the 70’s and the gearbox is a box with full 4WD and a synchro on the 3rd and 4th gears. 1st and 2nd is double clutch territory. Summer ready, show ready and ride out ready – a fabulous car that is a shame to see leave our possession. Have always added a lead substitute to all tanks. I can take any buyer through what I would do next – for any LR there is always another job but you can drive Lou away with confidence that nothing to do until the winter.
