Vehicle Detail

Landrover Series 3 109 UK Spec Right Hand Drive 5 Door WagonVery Rare Safari Roof Model! Selling my 1979 Landrover Series 3 109 original 2.25 liter 4 cylinder 4 spd manual, hesitant to see it go but its time, it has been my daily driver for 3 years now (owned it for 5years) it was purchased from an indivual in FL that imports Landrovers from the UK (yes its a right hand drive) Runs excellent, however has a snapped rear half shaft, and currently isnt drivable, however it was my daily driver for 3 years up to two months ago....Easy fix, but would rather sell..Its time for someone else to enjoy and time for something slightly more modern...Actual mileage estimated at 127K however engine was rebuilt rougly 6K miles ago. Plenty of work done to the truck over the years: THOUSANDS $$$ IN NEW PARTS! 1. Engine Rebuilt 2. New Seats (waterproof sport seats) old style can bolt right in easily 3. New Doors/Glass 4. New clutch slave cylinder 5. New Alternator (defender) 6. New custom sound dampening rubber matt interior (imported from the UK..Pricey!) 7. New Steel NATO wheel set with New Firestone Tires (6 new tires) 8. Defender 110 rack ladder 9. Safari Roof Rack 10. Defender Steering wheel 11. Defender side view mirrors and hinge set 12. New 1500.00 paint job (Newer Landrover Silver) Included but not installed yet: New rear side window glass New door seal set (all 5 doors) New Window channels All in all a wonderful vehicle, but as most go it could use a few things and has some problems they are as follows: Slight leak in front right brake cylinder, I need to add to the fluid level once in a while. Great fire wall, no corrosion, however there is some corrosion on the frame, and bits here and there...The rear leaf spring hangers in the back are resting inside the hangers and currently on lifters (was driven like this with no prob for over a year) needs to be patched or ideally chassis replaced with a galvanized one...My estimate with a patch job is another 5 years on chassis. Any questions please let me know...
