One more 109 NADA
Greetings from sunny Florida.
I too, have been bitten, and alas, there seems to be no cure! This is my fourth Rover and the most challenging. The first one was a Jan. '71-88 SW purchased in '82. When starter went south started looking for local parts and found a Feb. '71 88 SW at the local yard which had been totaled by Allstate (submerged in local river-- : - [ ) and purchased starter and all. Then a friend at work said he had an old Land Rover for sale. Went to look and found a '65 88 SW and had to have that one too (Came with original manuals--Good find). Kept them for many years until two brothers wore me down and I sold all three. Then without a Rover for about 3 years till a friend? at work told me he had seen an old Land Rover close by. Went to look--then took the wife and children--then made a deal --and fell for it again. This time I found out I had something different. A 109 NADA # 34300044. Then the fun began--Learning from scratch that everyone doesn't know everything about my latest acquisition, but some know some things--so I started compiling the list of peculiarities. I've had "Bodger" for 8 years and still going strong. It has the original engine #34300054 and I rebuilt it the first year after a six month search for parts and pieces (new/old set of .30 over pistons, etc.). Just recently have added a Mile Marker 12K winch with brush bar/winch plate assy(a good friend made the unit for me). The progression of NADA Knowledge has been challenging -- ranging from frustration to elation. If I knew then what I know now I'd still have to have it. It's been a great daily driver and I'll probably keep it for quite a while to come. More on the rebuild progression later. Thanks for letting me in.
Bodger's Dad.
ps-Looking forward to the NADA logo. Thanks !Comment

Hard to tell without a serial or a photo of the interior or engine bay.
