109 NADA Registry

[craigp]

Hi,
I just picked up a NADA and towed it home. Registered as a 1969...absolutely complete vehicle. 6 cylinder engine runs well, full dash intact and the factory installed Belleview winch is pulling strong. Will embark on a fairly major restoration over the winter.
The number is 34300797A.
The rear half of the chassis is in pretty bad shape...but the body(although painted several rough coats), is straight and in very good shape. Kodiak heater, heated windshield...etc.etc.
Found this in Stratford Ontario. It stared life in Vancouver but moved to Bancroft, Ontario in 72. It has been parked in a barn for 12 years and before that likely in another barn.

I have also fully restored/re-built another NADA this past winter but it is less original. Marsland galv chassis, defender seats, freshly rebuild military 2.5 NA etc. Re-painted the original colour of Marine Blue. Very happy with the truck but have recently sold it to justify more projects.

Still a little rough around the edges but fast as hell. V6, 5 speed tranny and high ratio aschroft gearbox lets this go down the highway at 75 without blinking an eye!

34300009A is now in its new home in North Florida. Thanks CliftonRover for the project!

Truck condition: Chassis is gone.... Evaluating the rest....pretty rough. The drivetrain looks original, intact and in relatively good shape. I may be interested in selling it if somebody is interested. I'll post a build thread as I start digging in.

Vin 34300009 in Killingworth CT. Truck needs a full rebuild, that I don't currently have time for.

It's amazing to see how many of these are accounted for on here.

Hello to all the 109 owners
I have 34300079A-the truck is original with a couple of up grades-parabolics and newer brake system and a roverdrive. Still have the 2.6 in her and getting some engine work done now- has some burnt exhaust valves. the truck has been driving around since i found her 8 years ago. The original list of all the 109's NADA ever made has 34300239 sold to churchill in 1966- my father ordered that truck and we picked it up in England when i was just a kid. if anyone knows where 239 is please let me know.
Cheers-Jordan

I have found and purchased 34300272A. It's a blue LR that has been in storage since 1992. I am going to get it running and hope to bring it to one of the Field Meets in either Portland, OR or Bellevue WA next summer. I also joined Pacific Rovers Club and I am looking forward to attending their events.

LRFAQ sez:
D 270 34300272 08 Aug 1966 18 Aug 1966 Marine Blue Rover, Boston

So originally an East Coast truck.

Welcome on board! I'll try to get the forum registry updated from the last few months for all, I've been busy designing the Rovers Magazine...
Cheers, Thompson

Good Morning Jeff;
If you think you have Memory Problems now, when you reach your late 70's, you may, God Willing, be able to look back at your current memory problems with envy.

#285 began Production 8 August 1966 and was completed the following day. As you know it was painted Marine Blue and shipped to Rovers San Francisco.

eyes or memory must be going (or both) as i have #285 not 283! not sure how i came up with that number but #285 is now running strong in the Reno Lake Tahoe area

thanks for the info, when i bought the truck it still had half the blue paint left, where it sat in the sun all those years was just bare metal. I did get the original sales document from Land Rover of San Francisco which was kinda cool.

FYI. According to the Production Records that I downloaded some years back, 283 began production 2 September 1966 and production was completed 5 September 1966. Original Color was Marine Blue and it was shipped to Rover San Francisco.
