1981 Land Rover Series III Petrol

Description

Galvanised chassis; very smart example ready for work; driven 30 miles to the sale; fresh canvas
First registered in December 1981 this Series 3 Land Rover is a very solid workhorse.   A new galvanized chassis was fitted in December of 2012, supplied by Richards Chassis and still looks in top condition today. Along with the chassis we also have invoices for new door tops, the all-important bulkhead having been restored too - presumably at the time of the chassis swap.

The timing chain and rear main crank seal were changed in 2020 along with a switch to electronic ignition, a new water pump and vast list of serviceable items, plus an oil service.   More recently a full brand-new Exmoor Trim canopy has been added, along with a brake service all round in February of this year. The vehicle comes with a well documented list of work and invoices.

Inside is well maintained, under the rubber floor mats the floor itself looks sound as are the vinyl seats. The exterior is very presentable for the age but does have the inevitable mark of being one of the most useful vehicles available.

The wheels look to have been recently refurbished and really set off the sand and blue theme of the car, in the back we find two bench seats with cushions along with a dolloping of very practical space.   Now MOT exempt of course, its last MOT ran out as recently as May of 2022, but previous tests looked promising with no advisories according to GOV.UK.
