I was approached by an elderly lady at a local car show telling me her late husband had a Land Rover and she has some parts in her barn that she wants to sell. I went over there and took pictures. She has no idea what they are worth. She believes the truck is a 1972, but she wasn't sure. Can anyone give me an idea what these are worth? They need to be refurbished. The glass is all original.

if the door tops are solid, maybe $300-$350? What I want to know is what happened to the truck!

Yup, really depends on the condition (how much rust) of the door tops. The roof parts usually aren't worth much. I had a hard time giving a couple hard tops away.

But, you never know. Might come across someone who is willing to pay quite a bit for that stuff. I'm never surprised by what some people pay for series parts.

I bought a set of those deluxe hard top sides a few years ago for $125. $300 + for used door top sans mounting studs seems steep when new RM door tops are $375.

The sides must be worth a fortune. They have the ROAV land rover club sitcker in the window - probably indicative of some MAR attendance from many years ago.

(I bet there is a cool rover with a SOFTTOP some where and these are the remains.)

Couple of hundred dollars at best....unless those door tops are completely clean.

Thanks for the input everyone. I think she was hoping to get $300 for everything. I have a wagon so I have no use for any of these parts, but I have a friend with a military truck and he might get them.

The top would be far more valuable if it were from a station wagon; alpine windows, headliner, tropical sunsheet, etc. I would go 100 on all. Hate to see any of it get scrapped.
