Land Rover 88. off roader.
.
Reluctant sale. No time to finish the project. approx 1957/59 series Land Rover 88inch. It is complete with axles and working brakes with braided hoses....>
The body work is a bit battered around but serviceable for an off roader. The roll cage is loosely mounted for a trial fit.The front wings and bonnet have been fixed together to form a flip front to give good access. There is no engine or gear box fitted but it looks like it has V8 mountings welded on. The doors and tail gate are usable. The rear tub has been removed and is loosely bolted back on. The chassis has been painted and is in excellent over all shape, it will only require a couple of small welding patches. The front out riggers are the latter type straight items not curved as on originals. The bulk head has been plated but is serviceable. The seat box again is old but serviceable. Tyres are old but decent nick again if only for off road use. There is a small petrol tank and battery box fitted in to the rear tub. Some wiring is in place but not sure if its any good, there is all so a radiator in place but again not sure if it is water tight. There are no chassis numbers or reg documents with this Land Rover but will provide a full written receipt if required.Viewing available at reasonable times by arrangement. Item is located in Doncaster but not at my home. I could possibly deliver item within 100 miles of Doncaster dependant on an agreed sum and my work commitments. Got a load of other Land Rover bits which I will be listing after this sale, including a screen , canvas tilt, and a Rover V8 with manual box and transfer box, some props, a set of V8 solex carbs etc which mite be of use to this project/ by TXT please, as working away and not near computer so questions via ebay may be answered slowly.

The Bulkhead is soild The Engine is in sound order The Gearbox operates as it should The brakes operate and are capable of locking the wheels Overall I would describe this LR as a decent “light project” I have tried to describe it as honest as I can and Inspections are welcome of course so that you can decide for yourself.

Land Rover LandRover Series 3 Tdi Long MOT
.
| Reluctantly having to sell my Series 3 due to ill health. It’s a classic 1973 series 3 88” (swb) which has had no expense spared over the last few...>
years as it was my intention to never part with it (I have bills totalling over £3500 – don’t tell the wife!!) | It’s been in the family for the last 15 years of it’s life and in my ownership for just over 2 years. In that time I’ve had the following done: | New rear crossmember and other chassis work carried out (my Uncle had previously had the footwells replaced and other bulkhead repairs completed)200 Tdi conversion by A&L LandRover Services of Poole (including new cambelt and clutch)Fairey Overdrive fittedFree Wheel Hubs refurbishedDiscovery diffs fitted to raise the gearing to suit the TdiWright Off Road soundproofing kitLaSalle full headlining kitRocky Mountain Parabolic springs all round (fitted with new suspension bushes, bolts, etc)Monroe gas shock absorbers all roundBF Goodrich All Terrains on Modular Wheels with locking wheel nuts (tons of tread left)Defender front seat set (most comfortable seats you can get for a Landy)Exmoor Trim forward facing rear seats (fold up nicely out the way when not in use)3 point inertia reel seat belts fitted to all 5 seats for safetyDefender style side windows (both sides slide open)Rocky Mountain aluminium door tops – both glasses slide for extra ventilation Thick rubber mats lining the rear body for sound reduction, insulation and comfortNew front doors, fitted with aluminium grab handles and stainless steel bolt set on new hinges.Defender door mirrors (so you can see what’s behind you!)New lock barrels (1 key operates all 3 doors)Black vinyl door trimsHeated windscreens (no worries demisting/defrosting these!)Pivlock spare wheel carrier to keep the weight off the rear door – with VGC spare wheelDixon Bate pin and ball tow hitchBrakes rebuilt with new shoes, cylinders and braided brake hosesFront axle rebuilt with new swivels, etc and rubber gaiters to protect themNew foot pedal rubbersBearmach full length roof rackHalogen headlight conversion (you can see where you are going!)New front and rear sidelight, indicator and tail light assemblies (front indicators have clear lenses with orange bulbs) all fitted with stainless steel lens screwsMountney leather steering wheel (original wheel will come with her)Galvanised rear tow bar stepNew galvanised front bumper & aluminium number plateRocky Mountain D rings (mounted on bumper)New under floor struts (excessive corrosion of these was the only advisory on the 2010 MOT, so all 3 were replaced with new for this MOT)New Bottlejack plus new HiLift farm jack included | With all of this you’d think she was perfect, well not quite! There are a few bad points which I’ll try and list below: | Cosmetics – As you can see from the pictures, she’s in need of a coat of paint – I’d bought some nice Royal Blue paint which will be included in the sale.Speedo not connected – due to the larger wheels & tyres and the Disco diffs the speedo under reads – I have a new speedo cable if you wanted to get it recalibrated, but I’ve successfully used either my sat nav or the free GPS speedo app on my phone.Door rubbers need replacing – The ones on it are either past their best or missing, so I have a full set of Defender door rubbers and new in packet lower door seals. The doors will need adjusting to close better!Alpine CD player you see in the photos works but was only placed in the headlining for the photos as it needs wiring up.Front mudflaps – They are brand new and in their packet, so need to be fittedNew rear number plate – I got a new rear to match the front but it’s in the back as I was going to fit it after painting (you don’t actually need it but I bought as a pair)No TAX – it’s been SORN after it was MOT’d at the end of November 2011 whilst I’ve been waiting to see how my health improved | I’m sure that there are other little things that you’d want to do, change, replace, after all it is a Land Rover! I would recommend viewing as you are bidding to buy not to come and take a look! | The Tdi conversion is fantastic and has transformed the Landy. It runs well on the motorway and will happily keep up with traffic thanks to the new gearing and overdrive. | The engine always starts first time and only needs the heater plugs on the coldest of days. The cab is also a nice place to be thanks to the Defender seats and all the trim, plus plenty of light from the large windows. The extra ventilation from having all the opening glass is great in the summer too. | There are few other bits and pieces that I’ll include in the sale including Haynes workshop manuals covering both the Landy and the Tdi engine. Cash on collection only, I can`t post it and I don`t take any other electronic payment method for you to arrange shipping or any of that malarkey!! | More pictures are here:: | X

1968 LAND ROVER SERIES 2a
.
| For Sale | 1968 Land Rover Series 2a 3.5ltr V8 | I bought the vehicle a couple of weeks ago with the intention of using for light greenlaning and general...>
use at the weekends, however, it has become apparent that it does need a little work doing to it, which I just don`t have the time for unfortunately. | It has 11mths MOT and tax (tax exempt) and is perfectly road worthy. It is in good condition for a 44yr old vehicle and wouldn`t take much to get it into show worthy condition. | Good Bits | 3.5ltr V8 (Range Rover engine)OverdriveTwin K&N air filtersRear rollcage2 Point harnesses Freewheeling hubsParabolic springsServo Assisted brakesChassis/bulkhead in good condition with no rotBody is straight with no dentsCabin has been tidied up with all switches re-wiredElectrical cut-off switchTowbars front & back | Bad Bits | Backbox needs replacingBackbox bracket has perished and broke, so exhaust is banging against the chassis when going over bumpsThe gearbox is the original, so wasn`t designed to be used with the 3.5ltr V8. It works ok, but there are intermittent rumbling noises when at certain speeds.Wheels are rusted and need tidying up | I have been as honest as I can. The engine pulls good and strong and runs very well. It has surprisingly good road holding due to the wide tyres and parabolic springs. All the 4WD functions work with no issues. | You are very welcome to come and view the vehicle. I have put a realistic reserve on and I am not offering a `Buy It Now` price - I am letting the auction run until the end. | Any questions, please ask and I will answer as quickly and as honestly as I can. | You bid to buy! | Thanks | X

She starts everytime, even in the coldest weather, battery is affected by the cold but she alway goes. I could go on all day really, someone will fall in love with her like i did. Comes with a spare wheel and tyre, normally on the bonnet where it looks best but not on in the pictures. there is a slight grazing on the front drives side wing as you can see it the pictures She does blow some oil from breather but ive been told this could be valve or tappet adjustment, would do it but i havent got the time and she starts and drives fine!!!like it i just keep her topped up. Cluth and brakes very good, hand brake very good too. I was owned by a mechanic before me and he went through all the brakes, replaced the steering idler and sorted the hand brake amongst alot of other things.

.
FOR SALE and OPEN TO BEST OFFERS - 1983 Land Rover Series 3, V8 Powered.Short Wheel Base Model.Benefits from a Range Rover V8 engine installed by Protek...>
Engineering, Wallingford, Oxon in 2005, hence plenty of power.Used as a third car (for winter weather/general run around as when it snows we get stuck as about a mile from main road via a track shared with a farm)! Reason for selling, new 4x4 means its no longer required.Odometer was 74, 000 miles when V8 was installed and is now just over 80,000 miles. Note the mileage on the replacement engine is unknown but it was fully serviced and checked at the time of installation (FW 4x4 or Protek should have more info if required).Since then it has been serviced annually (includes receipts/history/MOT/Tax discs).Spent a year in local indoor storage in Aug 2009 - Sept 2010 due to work re-location to New Jersey, USA.New battery installed in November 2010.Last major service it had was on return to UK in Oct 2010 when it had £828 spent and mileage was 79,155 (invoice and MOT to confirm).Since then, general service and MOT in April 2011 with £184 spent and mileage was 79,199 (invoice and MOT to confirm).Has only done about 500 miles in the last year 2011/12 and used by my Daughters partner on an adhoc basis.Land Rover registered to family home in Oxfordshire, but being used (as above) and currently based in Marlow, Bucks SL7.Comes with lots of bills/receipts for all recent work mentioned above.Very good tyres, runs great, starts 1st time everytime as I will demonstrate if you want to view it from a cold start (i.e. I will not run it first to warm it up prior to your arrival and you can feel the engine first to confirm)! If your looking for a cheap, fun and reliable truck that is cheap to insure, look no further.A few very minor knocks and scraps, it does have a crack in the rear door window which would be a cheap fix if required (as a result of a pebble in a snowball fight back in Dec `10), see photos (but adds to the character) and what you would expect for a near 30 year old Land Rover!It is what it is, a cool, much loved old skool Land Rover Series 3 with the beautiful tone of a V8 engine!Test drive available if you can prove insurance (3rd party).

Series 3 land rover in nice condition. Starts well, Beat the snow in winter, take the top off for some fun in the summer (I have some new snow chains available...>
for an extra £50)This is the classic go anywhere vehicle. gave it a run today after two months sat idle and it started on the third turn, its a nice looking landy.for those who have never driven a series 3 don`t expect new car style ride, this is a utility vehicle excellent for its job, but lacks modern frills, for air conditioning slide the windows open,no power steering but I have replaced the little steering wheel in the pics with a normal larger series 3 wheel (you are welcome to the old one if you have muscles big enough to use it) Tax runs out this month, will negotiate if I have to put some more on it - (wont sorn the vehicle), small problem with speedo, worked fine on first half of run today but stopped on way home, I think its probably just come loose at one end as it was waggling about a bit last time I drove her, will try to look at it but should be fairly easy fix if i don`t have time.2 Haynes manuals and the handbook also with the car.Viewings welcome as are test drives if you are insured (I will need proof)Its a nice car and great fun, just don`t have time to use it. But I almost guarantee it will snow the day after I sell it !! X

(July 2007) Land Rover Series Manufacturer Land Rover Production 1948–1985 Assembly Solihull , England Successor Land Rover Ninety & One Ten Class Off-road vehicle Layout FR layout / All wheel drive The Land Rover Series I , II , and III (commonly referred to as "Series" Land Rovers, to distinguish them from later models) are off-road vehicles produced by the British manufacturer Land Rover that were inspired by the US-built Willys Jeep . Land Rover says that 70% of these vehicles ever made are still in use today—a claim first made in the 1992 brochure and repeated many times since, being much publicised when cited by Richard Hammond of the BBC 's Top Gear . Series models feature leaf-sprung suspension with selectable two or four-wheel drive , the Stage 1 featured permanent 4WD. Contents 1 Development 2 Series I 3 Series II 4 Series IIA 5 Series IIA Forward Control 6 Series IIB Forward Control 7 Series III 8 Stage One V8 9 1 Ton 10 Australia 11 Military 12 Minerva 13 See also 14 References 15 External links [ edit ] Development The Land Rover was conceived by the Rover Motor Company in 1946 during the aftermath of World War II . Rover's usual products were luxury cars which were not in demand in the immediate post-war period and raw materials were strictly rationed to those companies building construction or industrial equipment, or products that could be widely exported to earn crucial foreign exchange for the country. Also, Rover's original factory in Coventry had been bombed during the war, forcing the company to move into a huge "shadow factory" it had built during the war in Solihull near Birmingham to construct aircraft. This factory was now empty but starting car production there from scratch would not be financially viable. Several plans for small, economical cars were drawn up, but all would be too expensive to produce. Maurice Wilks , Rover's chief designer came up with a plan to produce a light agricultural and utility vehicle, of a similar concept to the Willys Jeep used in the war, but with an emphasis on agricultural use. He was possibly inspired by the Standard Motor Company , who faced similar problems and were producing the highly successful Ferguson TE20 tractor in their shadow factory in Coventry. More likely, he used his own experience of using an army-surplus Jeep on his farm in Anglesey , North Wales. His design added a power take-off (PTO) feature since there was a gap in the market between jeeps and tractors (which offered the feature but were less flexible as transport). The original Land Rover concept (a cross between a light truck and a tractor) is similar to the Unimog , which was developed in Germany during this period. The first prototype had a distinctive feature—the steering wheel was mounted in the middle of the vehicle. It hence became known as the " centre steer ". It was built on a Jeep chassis and used the engine and gearbox out of a Rover P3 saloon car. The bodywork was hand-made out of surplus aircraft grade aluminium, mainly an aluminium/magnesium alloy called Birmabright , to save on steel, which was closely rationed. Paint was also in short supply, resulting in the first production vehicles making use of army surplus green paint. The first pre production Land Rover's were being developed in late 1947 by a team led by engineer Arthur Goddard . [ 1 ] Tests showed this prototype vehicle to be a capable and versatile machine. The PTO drives from the front of the engine and from the gearbox to the centre and rear of the vehicle to allow it to drive farm machinery, exactly as a tractor would. It was also tested ploughing and performing other agricultural tasks. However, as the vehicle was readied for production, this emphasis on tractor-like usage decreased and the centre steering proved impracticle in use. The steering wheel was mounted off to the side as normal, the bodywork was simplified to reduce production time and costs and a larger engine was fitted, together with a specially-designed transfer gearbox to replace the Jeep unit. The result was a vehicle that didn't use a single Jeep component and was slightly shorter than its American inspiration, but wider, heavier, faster and still retained the PTO drives. The Land Rover was designed to only be in production for 2–3 years to gain some cash flow and export orders for the Rover Company so it could restart up-market car production. Once car production restarted, however, it was greatly outsold by the off-road Land Rover, which developed into its own brand that remains successful today. Many of the defining and successful features of the Land Rover design were in fact the result of Rover's drive to simplify the tooling required for the vehicle and to use the minimum amount of rationed materials. As well as the aluminium alloy bodywork (which has been retained throughout production despite it now being more expensive than a conventional steel body due to its ideal properties of light weight and corrosion resistance) other examples include the distinctive flat body panels with only simple, constant-radius curves (originally used because they could be cut and formed by hand from aluminium sheet on a basic jig) and the sturdy box-section ladder chassis , which on Series vehicles was made up from four strips of steel welded at each side to form a box, thus cutting down on the complex welding operations required when making a more conventional U- or I-section frame.

This was launched at the Amsterdam Motor Show. It was originally designed for farm and light industrial use, and had a steel box-section chassis , and an aluminum body. Originally the Land Rover was a single model offering, which from 1948 until 1951 used an 80 in (2,000 mm) wheelbase and a 1.6 litre petrol engine producing around 50 bhp (37 kW; 51 PS). The 4-speed gearbox from the Rover P3 was used, with a new 2-speed transfer box. This incorporated an unusual 4-wheel drive system, with a freewheel unit (as used on several Rover cars of the time). This disengaged the front axle from the manual transmission on the overrun, allowing a form of permanent 4WD. A ring-pull mechanism in the driver's footwell allowed the freewheel to be locked to provide more traditional 4WD. This was a basic vehicle, tops for the doors and a roof (canvas or metal) were optional extras. In 1950, the lights moved from a position behind the grille to protruding through the grille. From the beginning it was realised that some buyers would want a Land Rover's abilities without the spartan interiors. In 1949 Land Rover launched a second body option called the " Station Wagon ", fitted with a body built by Tickford , a coachbuilder known for their work with Rolls-Royce and Lagonda . The bodywork was wooden-framed and had seating for seven people. Tickford was well equipped in comparison with the standard Land Rover, having leather seats, a heater, a one-piece laminated windscreen, a tin-plate spare wheel cover, some interior trim and other options. The wooden construction made them expensive to build and tax laws made this worse — unlike the original Land Rover, the Tickford was taxed as a private car, which attracted high levels of Purchase Tax. As a result, fewer than 700 Tickfords were sold, and all but 50 were exported. Today these early Station Wagons are highly sought after. In 1952 and 1953 the petrol engine was replaced with a larger 2.0 litre I4 unit. This engine was "siamese bore", meaning that there were no water passages between the pistons . During 1950 the unusual semi-permanent 4WD system was replaced with a more conventional setup, with drive to the front axle being taken through a simple dog clutch. Around this time the Land Rover's legal status was also clarified. As mentioned above, the Land Rover was originally classed as a commercial vehicle, meaning it was free from Purchase Tax. However, this also meant it was limited to a speed of 30 mph (48 km/h) on British roads. After an appeal to the Law Lords after an owner was charged with exceeding this limit, the Land Rover was classified as a "multi-purpose vehicle" which was only to be classed as a commercial vehicle if used for commercial purposes. This still applies today, with Land Rovers being registered as commercial vehicles being restricted to a maximum speed of 60 mph (as opposed to the maximum 70 mph (110 km/h) for normal cars) in Britain, although this rule is not often upheld nowadays. The 1954 Year Model saw a big change: the 80 in (2,000 mm) wheelbase model was replaced by an 86 in (2,200 mm) wheelbase model, and a 107 in (2,700 mm) " Pick Up " version was introduced. The extra wheelbase was added behind the cab area to provide additional load space. 1956 saw the introduction of the first five-door model, on the 107 in (2,718 mm) chassis known as the " Station Wagon " with seating for up to ten people. The 86 in (2,184 mm) model was a three-door seven-seater. The new station wagons were very different to the previous Tickford model, being built with simple metal panels and bolt-together construction instead of the complex wooden structure of the older Station Wagon. They were intended to be used both as commercial vehicles as people-carriers for transporting workmen to remote locations, as well as by private users. Like the Tickford version, they came with basic interior trim and equipment such as roof vents and interior lights. The Station Wagons saw the first expansion of the Land Rover range. Station Wagons were fitted with a "Safari Roof" which consisted of a second roof skin fitted on top of the vehicle. This kept the interior cool in hot weather and reduced condensation in cold weather. Vents fitted in the roof allowed added ventilation to the interior. While they were based on the same chassis and drivetrains as the standard vehicles, Station Wagons carried different chassis numbers, special badging, and were advertised in separate brochures. Unlike the original Station Wagon, the new in-house versions were highly popular. Wheelbases were extended by 2 in (51 mm) to 88 in (2,200 mm) and 109 in (2,800 mm) to accommodate the new diesel engine, to be an option the following year. This change was made to all models with the exception of the 107 Station Wagon, which would never be fitted with a diesel engine, and would eventually be the last series I in production. Finally, in 1957, the "spread bore" petrol engine was introduced, followed shortly by a brand new 2.0 litre Diesel engine that, despite the similar capacity, was not related to the petrol engines used. The petrol engines of the time used the rather out-dated inlet-over-exhaust valve arrangement; the diesel used the more modern overhead layout. This diesel engine was one of the first high-speed diesels developed for road use, producing 52 hp (39 kW) at 4000 rpm. This engine was slightly longer than the original chassis allowed, so the wheelbase was increased from 86 to 88 in (2,200 mm) for the short-wheelbase models, and from 107 to 109 in (2,769 mm) on the long-wheelbases. The extra two inches were added in front of the bulkhead to accommodate the new diesel engine. These dimensions were to be used on all Land Rovers for the next 25 years.

It came in 88 in (2,200 mm) and 109 in (2,800 mm) wheelbases (normally referred to as the 'SWB' and 'LWB'). This was the first Land Rover to receive the attention of Rover's styling department- Chief Stylist David Bache produced the familiar 'barrel side' waistline to cover the vehicle's wider track and the improved design of the truck cab variant, introducing the curved side windows and rounded roof still used on current Land Rovers. The Series II was the first vehicle to use the well-known 2.25 litre petrol engine , although early short wheelbase (SWB) models retained the 52 hp (39 kW) 2.0 litre petrol engine from the Series I for the first 1,500 or so vehicles. This larger petrol engine produced 72 hp (54 kW) and was closely related to the 2.0 litre diesel unit still in use. This engine became the standard Land Rover unit until the mid-1980s when diesel engines became more popular. The 109-inch (2,800 mm) Series II Station Wagon introduced a 12-seater option on top of the standard 10-seater layout. This was primarily to take advantage of UK tax laws, by which a vehicle with 12 seats or more was classed as a bus , and was exempt from Purchase Tax and Special Vehicle Tax. This made the 12-seater not only cheaper to buy than the 10-seater version, but also cheaper than the 7-seater 88-inch (2,200 mm) Station Wagon. The 12-seater layout remained a highly popular body style for decades, being retained on the later Series and Defender variants until 2002, when it was dropped. The unusual status of the 12-seater remained until the end—such vehicles were classed as minibuses and thus could use bus lanes and (if registered correctly) could be exempt from the London Congestion Charge . There was some degree of over-lap between Series I and Series II production. Early UK-market Series II 88-inch (2,200 mm) vehicles were fitted with the old 2 litre petrol engine to use up existing stock (all export models received the new 2.25 litre engine from the beginning), and production of the Series I 107-inch (2,700 mm) Station Wagon continued until late 1959 due to continued demand from export markets and to allow the production of Series II components to reach full level.

There were some minor cosmetic changes, but the most significant change was under the bonnet in the guise of the new 2.25 litre Diesel engine . Body configurations available from the factory ranged from short wheelbase soft top to the top of the line five-door Station Wagon. Also the 2.6 litre straight six petrol engine was introduced for use in the long wheelbase models in 1967, the larger engine complemented by standard-fit servo-assisted brakes. 811 of these were NADA (or North American Dollar Area) trucks, which were the only long wheelbase models made for the American and Canadian markets. From February 1969 (home market) the headlamps moved into the wings on all models, and the sill panels were redesigned to be shallower a few months afterwards. The Series IIA is considered by many the most hardy Series model constructed. It is also the type of classic Land Rover that features strongly in the general public's perception of the Land Rover, from its many appearances in popular films and television documentaries set in Africa throughout the 1960s, such as Born Free . In February 1968, just a few months after its manufacturer had been subsumed, under government pressure, into the Leyland Motor Corporation , the Land Rover celebrated its twentieth birthday, with total production to date just short of 600,000, of which more than 70% had been exported. [ 2 ] Certainly it was whilst the Series IIA was in production that sales of utility Land Rovers reached their peak, in 1969-70, when sales of over 60,000 Land Rovers a year were recorded. (For comparison, the sales of the Defender in recent years have been around the 25,000 level since the 1990s.) As well as record sales, the Land Rover dominated many world markets- in Australia in the 1960s Land Rover held 90% of the 4x4 market. This figure was repeated in many countries in Africa and the Middle East. 1963 Land Rover Series IIA pickup-type A series IIA without canvas. Land Rover Series IIa Station Wagon coil sprung hybrid. [ edit ] Series IIA Forward Control The Series IIA FC launched in 1962 was based on the Series IIA 2.25 litre petrol engine and 109 in (2,769 mm) chassis, with the cab positioned over the engine to give more load space. Export vehicles were the first Land-Rovers to get the 2.6 litre petrol engine. Most examples had an ENV rear axle, a matching front axle came later. Tyres were large 900x16 types on deep-dish wheel rims to provide extra floatation for this heavy vehicle. These vehicles were somewhat underpowered for the increased load capacity (1.5 long tons/1,500 kg), and most had a hard working life. Less than 2,500 were made, and most had a utility body, but surviving examples often have custom bodywork. With an upgraded powertrain, they can be used as a small motorhome. [ edit ] Series IIB Forward Control The Series IIB FC produced from 1966 was similar to the Series IIA Forward Control but added the 2.25 litre diesel engine as an option. The 2.6 litre engine was the standard engine for this model, the 2.25 litre engine being only available for export. Heavy duty wide-track axles (designed by ENV) was fitted to improve vehicle stability, as was a front anti-roll bar and revised rear springs which were mounted above the axle rather than below it. In the process the wheelbase was increased to 110 in (2,794 mm). Production ended in 1974 when Land-Rover rationalised its vehicle range. Many IIB components were also used on the "1 Ton" 109" vehicle.

Little changed cosmetically from the IIA to the Series III . The Series III is the most common Series vehicle, with 440,000 of the type built from 1971 to 1985. The headlights were moved to the wings on late production IIA models from 1968/9 onward (ostensibly to comply with Australian, American and Dutch lighting regulations) and remained in this position for the Series III. The traditional metal grille, featured on the Series I, II and IIA, was replaced with a plastic one for the Series III model. The 2.25 litre engine had its compression raised from 7:1 to 8:1, increasing the power slightly (the high compression engine had been an optional fit on the IIa model for several years). During the Series III production run from 1971 until 1985, the 1,000,000th Land Rover rolled off the production line in 1976. The Series III saw many changes in the later part of its life as Land Rover updated the design to meet increased competition. This was the first model to feature synchromesh on all four gears, although some late H-suffix SIIA models (mainly the more expensive Station Wagons) had used the all-synchro box. In keeping with early 1970s trends in automotive interior design, both in safety and use of more advanced materials, the simple metal dashboard of earlier models was redesigned to accept a new moulded plastic dash. The instrument cluster, which was previously centrally located, was moved to the driver's side. Long-wheelbase Series III vehicles had the Salisbury rear axle as standard, although some late SIIA 109-inch vehicles had them too. In 1980 the 4-cylinder 2.25 litre engines (both petrol and diesel) were updated with five-bearing crankshafts to increase strength in heavy duty work. At the same time the transmission , axles and wheel hubs were re-designed for increased strength. This was the culmination of a series of updates to the transmission that had been made since the 1960s to combat the all-too-common problem of the rear axle half-shafts breaking in heavy usage. This problem was partly due to the design of the shafts themselves. Due to the fully-floating design of the rear wheel hubs, the half shafts can be removed very quickly without even having to jack the vehicle off the ground. The tendency for commercial operators to overload their vehicles exacerbated this flaw which blighted the Series Land Rovers in many of their export markets and established a reputation that continues in many markets to the present day. This is despite the 1982 re-design (mainly the changing of the driveshafts from 10 driving- splines to 24 to reduce stress) all but solved the problem. Also, new trim options were introduced to make the interior more comfortable if the buyer so wished (many farmers and commercial users preferred the original, non-trimmed interior). These changes culminated in April 1982 with the introduction of the "County" spec Station Wagon Land Rovers, available in both 88-inch (2,200 mm) and 109-inch (2,800 mm) types. These had all-new cloth seats from the Leyland T-45 Lorry, soundproofing kits, tinted glass and other "soft" options designed to appeal to the leisure owner/user. Of more interest was the introduction of the High Capacity Pick Up to the 109-inch (2,800 mm) chassis. This was a pick-up truck load bay that offered 25% more cubic capacity than the standard pick-up style. The HCPU came with heavy-duty suspension and was popular with public utility companies and building contractors. [ edit ] Stage One V8 From 1979 until 1985, [ 3 ] the Stage 1 was built using some of the same components as the Range Rover and 101 Forward Control, such as the LT95 gearbox and 3.5 litre Rover V8 petrol engine. The engine was detuned to 91 hp (68 kW) from the 135BHP that the Range Rover of the time had. The Stage 1 was available in a 109-inch (2,800 mm) and 88in wheelbase'. [ 4 ] "Stage 1" refers to the first stage of investment by the British Government in the company to improve the Land Rover and Range Rover product offerings, which eventually led to the Land Rover 90 and 110. The use of the Range Rover engine and drive train made it the only Series III vehicle to have permanent four wheel drive. [ edit ] 1 Ton The 1 Ton 109" - produced from 1968 to approx 1977, covering late IIA and early series III Models. It was basically a Series IIB Forward Control built with a standard 109" body, featuring 2.6 litre petrol engine, lower ratio gearbox, ENV front and rear axles, (Salisbury front and rear on later Series IIIs) though some late IIAs were fitted with ENV axles in front and Salisbury on the rear. The chassis frame was unique to the model and featured drop-shackle suspension similar to the military series Land Rovers. 900x16 tyres were a standard feature and these machines were commonly used by utility companies and breakdown/recovery firms. Only 170 IIa and 275 (approx) Series IIIs (1 Ton) were built for the home market. [ edit ] Australia Australia has always been an important export market for Land Rovers of all sorts, but especially the utility models. 80-inch Series I models were imported by the Australian government in the late 1940s for work on civil engineering projects such as dams and road construction, which brought the vehicle to the buying public's attention. Large sales followed and in the 1950s Land Rover established a factory in Australia to build CKD kits shipped from the Solihull factory. The Land Rover continued to sell well throughout the 1960s in Series II guise, commanding some 90% of the off-road market, and with practically every farm having at least one Land Rover. The lack of power was often resolved by replacing the engine with a Holden (161/173/186 etc.) engine for which conversion kits were readily available. The Series III continued this success in the early 1970s, but from the middle of the decade sales declined. A large coal export deal to Japan relied on the subsequent import of Japanese cars and other goods, a combination of this increasing competition and increasingly poor quality of the components being shipped from Britain meant that Land Rover's dominance slipped. A problem specific to Australia was the always-limited supply of new Land Rovers. Leyland's factory never had the capacity to meet possible demand and the need to import almost the entire vehicle in kit form from Britain restricted the supply and manufacturing process further. This led to a long waiting list developing for the Leyland product whilst commercial operators could receive large fleets of Japanese vehicles very quickly. The other problems faced by Land Rover were the same throughout its export markets- compared to the Japanese competition, the Land Rover was underpowered, unreliable and slow with a poor ride quality, despite their superior off-road ability. Poor rust-proofing and low-quality steel used in comparison to the Japanese vehicles turned the buyers away in large numbers and by 1983, with the introduction of the One Ten, the Land Cruiser was the best selling 4x4 in Australia. In the early 1980s, Land Rover Australia had made some changes to the vehicle to try and combat this sales decline. As well as the fitting of the V8 petrol engine in the 1979 "Stage One", as in the rest of the world, Australia also received the same vehicle with the option of a 3.9 litre 89 hp (66 kW) 4 cylinder Isuzu diesel engine. This helped slow the sales decline, but the rest of the vehicle's shortcomings let it down. The One Ten was also available with this engine, and a turbocharged version producing in excess of 100 horsepower (75 kW) powered the military 6x6. Land Rover Series III Pickup Short wheelbase Land Rover Series III [ edit ] Military The British Army used Series Land Rovers in large numbers (and continues to use the modern Defender versions). The British Army tested the 80-inch (2,000 mm) Series I Land Rover almost as soon as it was launched in 1948. At that time, the Army was more interested in developing a specially-designed military utility 4x4 (the Austin Champ ). However, the Champ proved too complex, heavy and unreliable in battlefield conditions so the Army looked to the Land Rover. In the late 1940s the Ministry of Defence was keen on the standardisation of its vehicles and equipment. Part of this plan was to fit Rolls-Royce petrol engines to all its vehicles (even though most were not actually built by R-R). A batch of Series I Land Rovers were fitted with Rolls-Royce B40 4-cylinder engine, which required modification to an 81-inch (2,100 mm) wheelbase). However, the engine was too heavy and slow-revving, which stunted performance, and produced torque that the Rover gearbox could only just cope with. Rover convinced the MOD that, considering the quantities of Land Rovers they were considering ordering, that the standard 1.6 litre engine would suffice. The MOD started ordering Land Rovers in batches from late 1949. The initial batches were for 50 vehicles, but by the mid 1950s the Army was buying Land Rovers 200 vehicles at a time. Land Rovers were deployed to the Korean War and the Suez Crisis , and became standard light military vehicles throughout the Commonwealth. However, as the 1960s progressed, more and more specialised versions were developed. As well as the standard 'GS' (General Service) vehicles, a common variant was the 'FFR' (Fitted For Radio', which had 24- volt electrics and a large engine-powered generator to power on-board radios. There were also Ambulances on the 109-inch (2,800 mm) Series II chassis. A well-known version was the LRDPV (Long-Range Desert Patrol Vehicle), commonly called the 'Pink Panther', on account of their distinctive light pink sand camouflage. These 109-inch (2,800 mm) Series IIs were stripped of doors and windscreens and fitted with grenade launchers, a machine gun mounting ring and long-range fuel tanks and water tanks. They were used by the SAS for desert patrol and special operations. 1983 Series III HT Lightweight By the late 1970s the British Army had acquired around 9,000 Series III models, which were mainly a special 'Heavy Duty' version of the 109-inch (2,800 mm) Soft Top. These models had improved suspension components and a different chassis cross-member design. These were produced in 12-volt 'GS' models and 24-volt 'FFR' versions. A small number were 88-inch (2,200 mm) GS and FFR models, but in general the Army used the Air-Portable 1/2 ton, 88-inch (2,200 mm) "Lightweight" version. The Lightweight was in service by many armies all over the world. In Europe even the Dutch Landmacht and the Danish Army used the Land-Rover Lightweight. Instead of the petrol engine the Dutch and Danish Lightweights had diesel engines. Instead of the canvas top the Dutch ones had PVC tops like the modern Landrover Wolf. In addition, there were also 101-inch Forward Control models, 109-inch (2,800 mm) FV18067 ambulances built by Marshall Aerospace of Cambridge. The Royal Navy and Royal Air Force also acquired and maintained smaller Land Rover fleets during the 1960s and 1970s. The RAF used 88-inch (2,200 mm) models for communications, liaison, personnel transport and airfield tractor duties. The Royal Navy's fleet was, understandably, small and consisted mainly of GS-spec and Station Wagon versions for personnel and cargo transport. In the Falklands War of 1982 the British Army deployed several hundred Land Rovers to the South Atlantic. These never reached the Falklands as they were transported on the requesitioned merchant ship ' Atlantic Conveyor ' [ citation needed ] which was sunk in an airstrike. The loss of their light 4x4s caused numerous logistical problems for the British forces. After the conflict to replace the lost vehicles the Army ordered 200 Series III Land Rovers in 'Commercial Utility' specification (i.e. the most basic). These lacked the upgraded chassis and suspension that military-spec Land Rovers had and also had features such as the standard civilian front bumper, civilian headlights with trim surrounds and interiors that lacked the extra switchpanel that was installed for military customers. These civilian-spec vehicles served alongside the dedicated military specification fleet for over 10 years and proved to be just as robust. The Army's experience with these standard Land Rovers played a part in determining the specification for the Army's Ninety/One Ten fleet of later years, which were much closer to standard specification. All British military Land Rovers used the 2.25 litre 4-cylinder petrol engine. However, some overseas customers (such as The Netherlands ) specified the 2.25 litre diesel unit instead. The Land Rover is also the basis for the Shorland Internal Security Patrol Vehicle developed by Short Brothers . [ edit ] Minerva Minerva Land Rover Minerva of Belgium produced a vehicle called a Standard Vanguard , which was produced in Belgium, under licence of the Standard Motor Company . When Belgium's army needed a lightweight 4x4 vehicle, the head of Minerva, Monsieur van Roggen approached the Rover company in the spring of 1951. On 21 June, Rover discovered that they were competing against Willys Jeep for the contract. In October 1951, the deal was agreed and in 1952, the Minerva-Land Rover was produced. The Rover company supplied technical support for Minerva and allowed Minerva to produce Land Rovers under licence to Rover. Arthur Goddard , Rover Assistant Chief Engineer and head of Land Rover development was in charge of approving the changes Minerva wanted to make to the Land Rover as well as setting the factory up to assemble the vehicles.

The main points of concern are dealt with individually below. Tyres: It's important to raise the vehicle up on jacks and stands, sufficiently to take most of a Series Land Rover's punishing weight off its tyres. If this is not done, the tyres will tend to retain the bulge in them after the vehicle is returned to road use. There will then be a noticeable thumping from one or more wheels when on the move. Some tyres can recover automatically from the experience but others cannot and this then becomes a safety issue. Fuel: Modern fuel has more additives in it these days, particularly the unleaded type, and some are not stable in the long term. Old fuel can cause ignition problems and possible engine damage. So ideally drain the fuel tank or at least leave it with a minimum amount and completely fill the tank as soon as the vehicle is returned to the road. This serves to dilute the existing contents. Body: Series Land Rover body panels are made from aluminium alloy and so exposure to damp and rain is not a problem. The structural framework of Series Land Rovers, such as door pillars and bulkhead however, are of steel construction and therefore climate food. So, covering the vehicle and protecting it from the climate, protects the external steel components. It's the nature of a Series Land Rover to admit the climate through an impressive variety of portals. Corrosion then has the opportuntiy to continue from the inside out unless the vehicle is covered or stored indoors. Battery: There's a range of sophisticated battery charging devices available that sense the state of the battery and charge it accordingly. You can just hook your battery up to one of these and leave it alone. If however you only have a standard charger you could still 'leave it alone' by connecting it to your charger via a timer switch set to charge the battery for 15min each day. My own battery is in its fourth year of service having been charged in this manner for 3 months each year.
