Car description

1979 Series 3 Land Rover Overview NO RESERVE AUCTION

Engine cooling, amp; Exaust: The engine is a nice running Daihatsu 2.8 turbo diesel (DL50 is the engine code) it is a very popular swap in the UK due to its extreme reliability and greater amount of power about 100hp this engine suits the landy very well and pulls up most steep hills at top speed recent service includes all oils and fluids removed and replaced RUNS EXCELLENT the cooling system is in great order and has a manually operated electric cooling fan, rand new custom built side swept exhaust system

Transmission, wd, ransfer box & axles: The robust LT95 four speed manual transmission includes sycro meshed gears. It drives and operates as it should. The 4wd works as it should and has HIGH LOW 2&4WD. The oils in the axles, ransmission and transfer box have been drained and refilled in the past 1k miles both axles work as they should and the rear is the robust Salisbury 1ton axle one or two drops of oil drop from the transfer case and transmission over a couple days of being parked nothing out of the ordinary

Body Chassis & top: Very straight body, here is no major rust to speak of aside from one spot on the bulkhead about a silver dollar size and the door bottom frames need repair, he frame and chassis and undercarriage is very solid, he canvas top is water tight but shows sun wear and aging there are some straps that have broken as well no rips or tears

Interior: front seating for two with a center console, 3 man bench seats in rear rip in one of the seat bottoms, ot horrible, ash is in tact all electronics and gauges in working order, eater works great, ith the top buttoned up I've kept warm in some very chilly conditions

Tires/ Wheels: G rated re groove able tubed Michelin XYZ's about 80% tread on first grooves some slight cracking but all in all a great set of tires, OD steed wheels, ull sized spare

Lighting: I added the off road lights that are working, also added an LED light strip under the dash for interior lighting, edlamps corner markers and turn signals all in working order with bruch guards on all four corners

All in all a great running Series Landy that does not need a thing to be enjoyed but if you are after a show quality Series rover you will not find it here, his if for the enthusiast that wants a useable Landy that will run forever, n its current condition I would assume with very little maintenance this one will go on and on for MANY YEARS! It is a legal import and I have the UK title And stamped customs documents for easy registration, heck with your local regulations for title and registration information, ontact me for details email via ebay or feel free to call 805.704.0252
