Land Rover Series III 1975 Station Wagon
Description
I am sadly parting with my 1975 Land Rover Series III Station Wagon to buy a new daily driver. This has been a wonderful truck that I purchased about 8 years ago and have put a ton of work into. It's been so fun and I hate to see it go. Even my wife is sad to part with it!
My goal when I bought it was to have a capable truck that was essentially stock, so you'll find it in that condition.
This truck starts every time on the first turn, but if you ever wanted to, I have the original hand crank which also works and is a great party trick. Also the original matching blue lug-nut wrench.
It's been on a number of Rover club events here in Virginia and has kept up with if not out-performed many of the more modern trucks on the trails. Just pop it into 4W-low and let it crawl. When on pavement it cruises easily at 55-60 and with the Overdrive engaged it will keep up with Interstate traffic at 65-70.
Great reliable truck that you will enjoy for many years. I sure have.
