I have a 1979 Series III 88, 2.25L converted from diesel to petrol (I know, but it was done before I got it :sly:), with Fairey overdrive.

This beauty was custom restored at Land Rover Centre in Huddersfield, UK for a friend, who later sold it to me. EVERY major component, and nearly every minor component as well, has been either fully restored or made new to factory spec. This is a very faithful reproduction...not a resto-mod. It currently has ~11k miles since the restoration and runs perfectly!

I am asking $22k FIRM. It would cost more than double to get an old clunker to this condition (unless you do all your own work).

I have many more pictures I can provide on request, including some showing the restoration process.

Beautiful truck, good luck with the sale. I've got a Ser III but not in nearly as nice condition. Where in Maryland are you? I'm down in St Mary's County.

SOLD! I will let the new owner "own up" to landing this fantastic beast. I am already a bit sad to see her go.
Now if anyone happens to have a line on a International Scout Aristocrat...
