1969 Bugeye Series IIA with overdrive in Portland, OR $6,750
Mechanically well restored 1969 Series IIa Model 88 (2 door) with overdrive for sale. This has been an excellent Land Rover and will be the perfect car for someone looking for a daily driver. I am actually the second owner on the title, and have had it for about half that time. The engine, transmission, hydraulics, electrical harness, brakes, fuel system, exhaust and many other systems have been replaced or redone. It’s an original Land Rover where it matters, and has been upgraded where it counts too. The carburetor was replaced with a two barrel Weber along with an electronic ignition system. An ARB rear locking differential with air compressor has been added as well. The factory installed overdrive is alone worth over $1,000 and allows for good highway driving.

The VIN is 24435864F. It is a rare "bugeye" and came with many extra options including overdrive and original RPM gauge. Along with my title I actually have the original title from 1971. It really is a tremendous Rover and would make someone very happy as a daily driver or as a car to renew to show condition. I am selling it because I no longer use it as my primary car and it belongs with someone who would. Well over $15k invested in it over the years, if painted and renewed on the inside it really would be an outstanding car to show off but it drives fine as it is now. It's always been an Oregon/Washington car where they do not salt the roads so the frame is in good condition. More questions welcome, the car has made me very happy and it's time for someone new to have fun with it. Car is in Portland, OR.
