1962 Land Rover Series IIA!! Extremely rare to find a Series truck in this condition! Absolutely stunning, beautifully restored, rust-free and mechanically in excellent condition! Finished in rare and original Marine Blue Over Black vinyl and equipped with the extremely desirable removable Hard Top option! Rear-mounted Gun Rack and brand new (original spec size) aggressive off-road tires. Vehicle has gone through Full restoration, restored to the original factory specifications by British Motors of San Diego! Important & Rare!!!!! Vehicle is Equipped with Original Ultra rare Farm Equipment shaft! This can be used to attach the vehicle to farm or construction equipment. This is probably one of the only Series Trucks left in the US that still has the original adapter! Vehicle still has the original Gun Rack and the original Owners manual. The Series IIA is widely regarded as the most enduring Series model constructed; both in terms of its offroad adventure & ruggedness. This and of course the perception the public has of the Land Rover marque in general. It is very rare to find such a Iconic Series in this condition! The beauty is in the details! The IIA retains its original tried, true and tested 2 ¼ Litre Petrol 4 cylinder engine, which was fully sorted when the car was restored. The 4-speed manual transmission shifts smoothly through each of the gears and is assisted by a fully functional low and high range 4X4 unit. The engine sounds like the first day, idles consistently and pulls strongly and smoothly. Compression is excellent and ride quality is everything you’d expect of a fully sorted Series IIA. Aesthetically the truck is truly outstanding! An extremely high quality paint job in the original Land Rover Marine Blue color, the finish is lustrous and consistent. The interior is impeccable, the dash is clean and straight forward with working gauges and switches. The Black Vinyl interior is in excellent shape with no wear or tear. This is a rare opportunity to acquire an iconic, beautiful, rust-free original Land Rover Series IIA! This Land Rover is undoubtedly one of the finest Series IIA's in the world!
