    1963 Series II 88"

    This is a few pics of the Land Rover my Grandmother just gave me. It has been siting for years and I plan to go thru it and make it as clean as my wallet will allow.

    I will post pics on this board when I get home but here is a link to my Clubs web site

              That is a very cool Rover - but then I am prejudiced towards the 88" P/U. For obvious reasons.

                  Id pull up the shag carpet and see if the footwells are rusted. Looks like a pretty clean solid truck already congrats and good luck!

                          That's a pretty good looking piece of work! I always loved that body style.

                                  I hate California. That truck would look like that in 2 weeks here in NH.

                                  Anyway, your truck shall be called snow white from this time forward. Granny painted EVERYTHING white. I kind of like it though.

                                      ...2 weeks after rolling off the assembly line, that is. I wish my chassis looked like that. I only drove it one winter here and mine looks worse.

                                          The chassis crossmember has not even been "streamlined" by offroad obstacles.

                                                  I just ordered a brake master cylinder rebuild kit and a complete exhaust from the manifold back.

                                                  I will post more pics when I get the parts

                                                      Rubijon,

                                                      What is the purpose of this odd, home-made crossmember shown in the pics below? (The one made of steel channel, not the factory one!)
