1962 Land Rover Series 2a V8 5 speed Soft top Galvanised chassis SOLD

For sale on behalf of an AB 4x4s Cleveland customer is a one off and quite remarkable 7 seater Land Rover Series 2a (1962). Soft top with the benefit of an original chassis that has been galvanised and a roaring 3. 9 V8 engine and 5 speed box. We sold this last year over lockdown when we did a full body restoration for our customer.

This included re-galvanising all cappings and the use of stainless steel bolts wherever possible.

This is MOT exempt but we still put one on for our previous customer and valid until July 2021. Only one advisory was slight play in steering box.

ENGINE– This is a super fit 3. 9 Rover v8 that starts on first press of the button. I have never heard one with such a nice tone.

GEARBOX– A 5 speed box which changes really smoothly and helps cruising at respectable speeds maintaining better MPG’s.

CHASSIS– This is a galvanised chassis, not a new one but should prevent future maintenance. We did waxoil it for the previous customer.

RUNNING GEAR– So we added brand new brake discs and pads all round plus 2 new callipers resulting in better stopping. We added new shocks all round so handling is so much better with the parabolic springs.

BODYWORK– We did a full body restoration around 8 months ago and been kept in the garage, only covering 41 miles in his ownership. We added brand new doors all round with the rear half door being galvanised. It was finished in Beluga black which looks superb next to the galvanised cappings. In short it is one of the straightest Series 2’s you will ever see. Nice to see the spot welds present on the tub sides which is a sign of NO filler. The hood is brand new from Exmoor trim and sand in colour. To the rear is a galvanised adjustable tow hitch.

INSIDE– To the rear are 2 brand new bench seat with 4 seatbelts. Ribbed mat to keep the newly painted floor nice. There are 3 defender style seats to the front with new seat covers.

Below is a list of some of the new parts;

Age related number plates
Galvanised bumper with stainless fixings
Seat covers
2 rear bench seats
Rear view mirror
2 x wing mirrors
Lights all round including headlights
Fuel tank
4 x disc brakes pads
2 x callipers
2 x glazed door tops
2 x door bottoms
Door furniture all round
Seals all round
Door hinges
Sony stereo
Galvanised rear half door
Exmoor trim hood

So, in conclusion, this tax and mot galvanised chassis beast will turn heads wherever you go whilst costing the new owner very little to keep on your drive. It is super all year round in the snow or sun and capable of carrying up to 7 people.

We have priced this very reasonably at £18995. We can deliver worldwide. Call Anthony for any further information.
