Nice truck. Mine had 26k miles. Same condition. That said every seal and piece of rubber had rotted and or hardened so master and slaves of brakes and clutch had to be replaced as did hoses and the water pump where the seal had hardened. Trust that was also done as well or does this truck have magic powers?

what's the story behind it??

[ron thompson]

Long story short. In 1974 a doctor in Indiana bought two new Land Rovers. One he drove and beat the hell out of. The other he drove occasionally and kept in a garage every non-driving moment.

At some point in the very early 80's he emptied the gas tank, put the truck on blocks and every weekend injected gas into the carb with a hypodermic needle to run the engine. The interior is almost showroom and there is still grease pencil marks on the frame.

I sold my 110 a few years ago and a gentleman emailed me to see if I'd be interested in buying a Series 3. I said no I was looking for a Series 2, but send some photos. When the photos arrived I changed my mind pretty fast. The truck is a time capsule.

Only new hoses, belts and new carb under the hood. Original clutch. The truck spent it's life in a warm garage

That's a nice 88. What year is the SII?

That's a nice 88. What year is the SII?

Thanks! Its titled as a 67 S2a, but its really a bitsa. The frame and bulkhead came from Ike; they came off of a clean, rust free, repair free 1960 S2 (all of it has been galvanized, of course). In reality, its probably more S2 than S2a at this point.
