For Sale Part or Trade 1973 Land Rover Series III 88" Project (1 Viewer)

Location

United States

Original LHD North American (NA) Series Rover. Looking to sell bulkhead, galvanized frame, engeine/trans/t-case, and once that's gone, part out the rest, including numerous NOS parts, including body panels, wiring harness etc. etc.

Would trade for a mid 70's FJ40 project with or without engine, in similar condition (e.g. no rust buckets).

Located in South Florida - local pick up preferred on the big items, but could discuss delivery in the SE.

Have a local call on bulkhead for this week after we get back from Savannah.

Sure wish someone had an FJ40 to trade!

My nephew is in Jupiter. I have a Series 1 rover. do you have the pedals seperated from the bulkhead?

Just curious, was it your intentions to use the Series 2A wire grill instead of the Series lll plastic grill in your build?

Sorry for late reply - busy traveling over holiday.

The pedals/brake tower are pulled from bulkhead - but won't part those until bulkhead is sold (otherwise I need to keep).

Yes - I have a NOS Series IIA/III radiator panel that I've already painted, and someone was kind enough to sell me the little galvy hanger tabs that you need to install the earlier IIA breakfast. No love for the plastic Series III grille

I had both (2A / lll) but my preference is the 2A. I taught my son how to drive a RHD Series lll and he drove it throughout his high school years.
I still like the old videos where guys would use the metal grills to cook their evening meals and then return it to the vehicle.

I had a nicely restored 1965 Series II about 7 years ago - sold it for far less than it was worth (but more than I paid), if only to prove to my future wife I didn't have a hoarding problem (two FJ40's, two Land Rovers, a flats boat, etc. etc.). That 65 was beautiful - new Turner 2.25 with a Solex and overdrive sounded great, galvy frame, tropical top, nice interior - but at the time we just preferred the beat up Series III, it has far more soul (just hate that plastic "breakfast").

Now that I have so little time - my preference would be to spend it working on Land Cruisers - if only to keep things simpler.

Just checked out your website - may get in touch some day to discuss engine/cockpit lighting options.....
