(The keywords for future searches)
I have only just bought this and the reason I am selling it is because the bloke I bought it off had two and said if you want to buy one you have to buy both, I don't need both so here it is!
This Land Rover is in excellent condition and has been shedded all it's life since leaving the army, the bloke I got it off bought it off the army.
It is still very original
Chassis No 24305711B and still with original motor 25170017F ARN 113-693
It has all the army fitments except missing 3 x TAC plate holder (you can buy these on ebay), and the Bridge weight plate.
Everything in working order, lights/blinkers/horn/high beam all working, wiring harness looks very good and not dry and brittle at all. Engine runs OK.
The Chassis is very solid and no rust at all.
At the moment the radiator is out as it apparently has a leak and he was going to fix it but obviously didn't. The clutch will need bleeding. Can't see anything else that will need much attention.
It does not come with the hoop set, as he had a hard top on it (if you want the hard top talk to me). The door tops have a couple of small rust spots bubbling through in the usual places.
The pintle hook has been taken off and not with the vehicle.
I do have an old army canvas canopy that could be bought back to life, the roof needs some repairs or replace with new canvas but the sides and rear are good.
These are a very hard to find model, if you know army Land Rovers you will appreciate they don't come up for sale very often. There is nothing hidden here this is a very solid vehicle with a known history and does not need restoration but just a tidy up to bring back to full army spec.
Any questions please message me. Available for inspection by appointment.

I've had a good look over vehicle this weekend (as I haven't had it for long) and everything is still as described except the brakes will need bleeding to bring up peddle pressure.
Still a great vehicle for restring back to original Army condition
Did a REMLR or Forum Person win it?
