    Some must die for others to live.

    Other side front fender is complete bondo, but that would be an easy replacement. Frame is rusty, so it must have originated elsewhere. Interior is trashed since the windows are broken out. I didn't pop the hood and peek, but the clutch and brake pedals are laying in the front seat, so I'm assuming its a wreck under there...

    Nice, being from that part of the country, the frame should still be decent too.

    Found this one recently - haven't found the owner yet, but looks like a good parts rig for my '63!

    NW Kenya sighting

    Already in safe hands at the Lodwar Lodge in NW Kenya but thought folks would like to see this very clean II (?IIA) with a sweet Royal East African AA badge on the grill.

    Linus- Awesome Rover! Congrats! I like the tow rig as well......I'm a fan of the 70's Fords and I have a couple of those trucks.

    Here is a Series III I just found in Panama City, FL on I98. It had a few weathered notes on the windshield with people looking to buy it. Any one know who it might belong to?Click image for larger version

    Gloucester, VA...down on the York River...3.5hrs away.

    Anytime you want to take a drive and check it out let me know...I will probably be there all week this week cleaning it up - A LOT of dirt, pine needles and wasp nests.
    I saw it today while in Upperville!!

    This one has been listed on Craigslist in NH for quite a while. Looks like it could be a good donor for body parts and likely needs a significant amount of work. Given the amount of time that it has been listed...maybe the seller would go down on the price...always hard to tell on these things.

    It came out of elkhorn slough near moss landing, Ca. I think it needs to be called swamp thing, since it was basically in a swamp.

    Linus that is a beauty! Where did you find it?

    I have always loved the 109 pickups. I finally got my 66 in 2007. I have just started the tear down, and got down to the frame (which is actually in quite good condition) but got pulled away on my MGB project. MGB is getting a new engine (a turbo Supra engine).
