To date we have driven this vehicle approximately 13,000 miles since the new engine was installed. The original engine had something like 290,000 miles on it. We are the fourth owner but only the second owner to actually to have driven her. We do know the original owner.
She has NEVER been off-road since the restoration. She does have a couple of nicks on her now: rear door and rear door hinge panel, Front passenger wing (fender); several small spots on paint and paint wear near firewall from the bonnet (hood).
We have MANY spare parts. Some new and many original from this vehicle including the original engine in a shipping crate. Also have wiring diagrams, shop manuals and several Land Rover books.
