Ended up selling the NADA 109 (the one with the 289)
I've been chasing this one for a bit (3+ years). The owner finally relented and it's arrived. Pretty straight rig with some good improvements on the original platform. Super low mile Turner 2.25, dual circuit brakes, new leafs/bushings, wiring harness, etc. Should have it running and stopping soon!
First on the list: rebuilding wheel cylinders and M/C + Booster. Seems like the Rover was worked on a ton and a lot of new parts installed, then parked. Been sitting for 3-4 years. After brakes/clutch, I will be getting into flushing fuel tank and cooling system.
I did have a chance to lightly compound the drivers door - that paint comes right back!
It rained yesterday, so I found out where all the roof/weather seal leaks are!
Here's a couple of shots I took right after arrival.
