Description
Commendably rust-free
chassis and
bulkhead ; BMIHT Heritage Certificate which lists it as a CKD export to
Australia in 1958
Recently imported from Australia and now UK
registered, this part-restored late Series I 88in petrol has had
the engine run in but is in need of
recommissioning.
Just as you like to find them, this hot-climate
Land Rover is in super-sound order underneath and has already benefitted from
lots of restoration work.
The chassis and bulkhead are commendably
rust-free and nicely prepared, and it has had ignition parts fitted under the
bonnet to get it into running order.
It currently has no water in the radiator, so
we have only run it for a few seconds, but it shouldn't be too much work to get
it ticking over sweetly. The transmission appears to be stuck in four-wheel
drive and the usual work on the brakes will be needed but this is a terrific
basis to get a nice late Series I up and running at modest
cost.
It comes
with a BMIHT Heritage Certificate which lists it as a CKD export to Australia in
1958, destined for dealer Gardiner Caffn. It was assembled by Pressed Metals via
Grenville Motors in Sydney.
Now UK registered, it comes with a current V5C
and could be on the road in time for the warmer
weather...
