1964 Land Rover Other Description

TheSeries IIAis considered by many the most hardy Series model constructed.Offered for sale, a 1964 Series IIa 88” station wagon with original 2.25 liter petrol engine that has been subject to a complete frame-off restoration. The vehicle was completely disassembled and then aluminum (birmabright) body panel was stripped, epoxy primered, and painted Land Rover Poppy Red prior to assembly. The original rust free frame was steam cleaned, sanded and then treated with POR 15 rustproof paint with a POR chassis coat top coat. Assembly was accomplished with all stainless steel bolts, utilizing rubber or nylon grommets between panels to eliminate future galvanic corrosion. All major components have been either replaced or restored utilizing genuine Land Rover parts whenever possible.This truck is fitted with many desirable options such as a Fairy overdrive, Kodiak heater, in-cab hand throttle, optional smiths oil pressure/water temp gauge, Warn free wheel hubs, deluxe bonnet, rear jump seats (seats 7 in a pinch), banjo steering wheel, interior cab and bonnet spare tire mounts, and both canvas soft top as well as a tropical hard top with sliding windows and rear door.All Work done on this Land Rover was in 2010, and includes an entirely brake systems from master cylinder and hard lines to brake shoes. A new clutch, pressure plate, master and slave cylinder have been fitted, as well as an entirely new fuel system (including new epoxy lined genuine LR fuel tank), NOS cloth wiring harness, complete genuine exhaust system, TI Console parabolic springs and bilstein shocks, new hubs, bearings, seals, axle shafts, swivel balls, ralco bush, all new tie rods and drag links with much more.I am including in the sale over $1,000 worth of spares including brand new fuel pump, NOS water pump, engine gasket set, genuine LR weather striping, spare thermostats, NOS replacement front and rear lights, light guards, wheel seals, engine thermostat, axle half shaft, Land Rover shovel and pick tailgate mounting brackets, Land Rover retractable seatbelt kit and It mounting brackets, and hi-lift jack.

Slight modifications to improve utility while keeping the original character. The seatbox and aluminum floor panels have been linex coated for sound and heat insulation. It has also been fitted with a brand Optima battery and has 4 new BF Goodrich All Terrain tires, 16" wheels, and has a band new spare tire and wheel. Overdrive allows highways speeds of 65mph with more relaxed cruising at around 55mph. The parabolic springs (3 leaf rear, 3 leaft front) and bilstein shocks provide a relatively smooth ride and allow for fantastic off-road articulation. Everything works as it should and is ready to go anywhere. It is not a trailer queen. This truck should be driven and enjoyed. You could not replicate this vehicle for under $25k. This is your opportunity to own a very nice driveable example of the truck that started the SUV craze. I have tried to explain the exact condition of the vehicle, and will be happy to answer any questions you may have. The truck has always been parked inside my garage. The few not working items: The arm that stops the passenger door from swinging fully is detached. Nothing bad. Just needs to be fixed. One of the levers for the front vent broke but is still operable. The only part NOT restored is the tropical hard top and rear door. This was purchased after restoration. A canvas soft top is included with all the hardware.
