1961 Land Rover Santana

1961 Land Rover Other Description

The successor to the successful Series I was the Series II Land Rover which saw a production run from 1958 to 1961. This series 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. This larger petrol engine produced 72 hp (54 kW) and was closely related to the 2.0-litre diesel unit still in use.
This beauty features a rebuilt engine and transmission, complete re-wiring of electrical systems, as well as weather-proof chassis. If you're a lover of antique Land Rovers, a collector or simply looking for a weekend car that is sure to garner lots of attention, look no further!
