It has a rare Dowty hydraulic pump running off the gearbox to run external accessories - not tested
Comes with a truck cab, door tops and a canvas and frame for the rear behind the truck cab. Unfortunately someone in the past has fitted a sunroof to the truck cab.
It has done about 100 miles since rebuild so should be treated by the new owner as needing running in, and oil changing when running in complete.
Battle scars/dings/scrapes are still present on the body but that to me is part of the charm.
I have spent far too much time and money bringing this land rover upto its present condition and with another baby on the way I could do with the funds back - having said this I am not going to be accepting silly offers.
No warranty or guarantee
Payment by bank transfer only.
Please be aware this still drives like an old land rover, so don't be expecting it to drive like a new car with lots of driver aides.
It is currently sorn, test drives only with proof of insurance.
