Land Rover Series 2a 88" Soft Top 1964 Galvanised Chassis Restoration
We are delighted to offer this lovely example of a Series 2. First registered 28th February November 1964.
TAX & MOT EXEMPT
The vehicle has been rebuilt to original specification and a vast majority of original parts were reused and new old stock parts where sourced where required. The restoration includes a new galvanised chassis. The vehicle is immaculate underneath and has covered very few miles on the road since restoration.
The vehicle is in by far one of the most classic colour combination bronze green with contrasting canvas and limestone wheels.
The bulkhead was refurbished with new pressed footwells and pillars. New galvanised Richards chassis. Gearbox fully refurbished. Engine rebuilt block and head have been chemically cleaned and pressure tested. Converted with unleaded head. New valves and seats so the vehicle can now run on unleaded.
New elephant hide grey front and matching rear bench seats have been fitted. A new autosparks wiring loom, new swivels, suspension, steering rods, track rod ends, steering box rebuilt and a new steering relay.
Brakes completely overhauled, axles fully rebuilt. New lights fitted all round. There is so much more to list. The restoration incudes two wiper motors and circular smiths round heater which has had a new core. All 5 tyres are brand new.
The vehicle is in immaculate condition and drives very well. The vehicle has always been dry stored and has travelled very few dry miles since the restoration was completed.
The bodywork on this example is immaculate and all the panels are straight with no dents or scraps.
All windows open, all the window channels are good since the vehicle has had a fully restoration and everything is new.
The load area is exceptionally clean and doesn't show any sights of heavy use and is presented with a rubber mat.
The vehicle has one of the best engine bays we have seen on a Series 2a, extremely clean. 2. 25 petrol engine.
The engine busts into life at the turn of the key. It is apparent that this is a vehicle that has been maintained and covered low mileage it runs as quiet and smooth as any Series Land Rover that we have ever had.
A joy to drive and such fun, the vehicle will have a full 12-month MOT from the day of sale. Four wheel drive and low range engage, as they should. The gears change up and down as they should it has a very quiet gearbox which is a good sign of it's light use over the years. This vehicle will be supplied fully serviced including engine, filter, main gearbox, transfer box, diffs and swivels.
The steering is as it should be and the vehicle doesn't wonder on the road like some series vehicles do.
The vehicle is as clean underneath as on top any inspection is welcome.
