1967 109 Green with Ford 300 - 6 Cyl,

Hi,

Just posted on another thread about my former 109 with a Ford 300 EFI that I installed in the late 80's.

If anyone knows where it is, hopefully it can make it on to the NADA Registry.

Last seen in San Luis Obispo County, Calif., ca. 1990

Regards,

CCEC

You might also want to compare Grundy with Hagerty. Very similar price wise, but they differ on requirements and restrictions. I think they're both good companies but the differences may fit different situations(read usage) better.

Hey,
I have been restoring my 1967 NADA for the past three years. It is number 246; red with cream top. At some point in the past someone changed the 2.6L for a 4.2L GM inline six. The truck runs very smooth and has great power with the GM engine. I want to get my car insured soon with classic insurance. Does anyone know what a very nice NADA model is worth? I want to insure it for replacement value.
Thanks

Welcome to the registry Evan! I'll try to get all updated soon on the first page list. I'm sure someone will chime in on replacement value. I'd suggest looking at Hagerty Insurance.

Parts supplier

I used pierre janusz from RPS in london for all my NADA 6 parts. Dont have his contact handy, but you can look him up on line probably. If not, shoot me an email and I can dig up his email addy.

Welcome Aboard Pete and Debbie; I am the original owner of 717. When the Unit was brand new, parts had a long lead time. Today you will discover that most original part numbers have changed. You will also discover that Land Rover Dealers, and Parts Suppliers, do not have most NADA Engine Parts. The NADA Engine is the Engine used in the Rover P4 110. This 2.6L engine was discontinued in 1964 or there-abouts, and a 3L version was introduced. Some parts are not interchangeable between the 2.6L and the 3L. I have been having my unit restored from the ground up for several years. Delays have been caused by the need to find Parts. I'll be happy to answer questions and provide sources. My eMail address is redbrush2@yahoo.com. I'll do everthing I can to help you keep your unit original.

Thanks Gale and Jim.
I got a couple of the same type of responses from another thread, so I'm thinking it's original. I like the idea of using a ball peen hammer to check for thin spots. I'll be hammering on it the next time I get time to crawl under it.
Thanks again.

I agree with Gale. You are in possession of the Original Frame. My Restoration Manual is in the hands of the Shop doing the work, so I can't provide the Title, Publisher, nor an exact quote without going to the shop. (I'll do so if you ask). As I recall the manual suggests you take a ball-peen hammer to the low spots in the frame. By "Low Spots" I refer to where water would settle in the frame as the vehicle sat at rest. If you have a frame problem the hammer will locate it if you hit all of the low spots. Good luck, Jim Chandler (patrickfoley1)

I'm probably 6 months from having 717 Road Ready. How are the members of our Forum Handling the Insurance for a NADA Unit?

Kinda doubt anyone would have stamped a replacement frame. It is possible it's the original frame, it all depends on where the PO lived, where and when he drove it, how thoroughly he washed it. and so on.

Frame swap question

I'm not sure if anyone here can help with this or not, but I have a question regarding the frame on 34300021A. I acquired the car about 2.5 years ago and have little knowledge of its history. Everyone tells me the frame must be rusted out if it's the original frame, but it's not rusted much at all, near as I can tell. So, I tend to think it has been replaced sometime in its past. But, the serial number on the frame matches the body. Therefore, the question I have, is it possible the factory stamped the original serial number into a replacement frame for the previous owner?

Thanks
