Series 1 owners

Series 1

I also have a Series I. It is a 1955 86 (first registered in Canada in 1956)and is stock. Colour is blue and the hardtop is creme. It runs but has loose steering and the wiring is a total mess. When I can get to it it will have some corrections made.
Cheers,
Brian on Kootenay Lake
94 Disco
69 IIA 88
55 I 86
and a fleet of old Volvos - one runs well

This is my 58 series I 'PATINA' I'm in Rhode Island. She runs like a champ. I have a hard top that goes on in the winter and I'm currently seeking a soft top. She only comes out on dry days.

Well how do Brian. We're practically neighbours. I live one mountain range east of you. You might recognize this when I take my ser1 rig out to your neck of the woods.

[Brian Holmes]

I sure do. I remember seeing a green series I heading toward Nelson a few miles west of Balfour at about twilight a while back. Yours? Did you come over Grey Creek Pass?
Cheers, Brian

Real men want to see pics!

Howdy Brian,

Bronze Green Yes. At twilight, most likely. Over Gray Creek, not yet.

[Nanoose]

From Vancouver Island...

1955 86" Pretty much all stock (except the colour of course...)

I really like your 86. I don't care who you are, it's impossible to not smile when you see that rover.

Mine in Ontrio

1957 LWB 107

[Bertha]

Its a 109, it still has the 2.0L, no its not from a military base.

109 series 1's are quite rare. I too have a S1 109. Mine is a RHD ckd diesel that was originally sent to Australia and is now sitting in my garage awaiting restoration.

I don't care how much simpler, or better (in some respects) SI's are compared to II's, IIa's, or III's. I just can't get past the looks. They are the silliest looking thing on the road to me (surpassed only by the thing).

Or a SII,SIIA,SIII with mag wheels

LMAO- Travis you are too funny.

[meatblanket]

Here's my silly looking S1, although it has a lot of later bits in it.

I have a '58 SI 88". Currently in the process of getting a new frame under it. It will have a 2.5 na in it when done. I have a $#!^pile of 2.0 motors, but none that function.
