1965 Land Rover Series 2a Nut + bolt Galvanised chassis resto For Sale

For sale through AB4x4s Cleveland is Dorothy a lovely example of a Series 2a. She was subject to a full nut and bolt restoration over a 2 long years. She has been rebuilt to original specification and a vast majority of original parts were reused and new old stock parts where tracked down and used.

Dorothy is in by far the nicest colour combination Pastel Green with limestone wheels which is correct for this year.

She is in immaculate condition and drives very well and starts on the button. She has always been dry stored since her rebuild and has travelled very few miles since the restoration was completed.

The cappings and windscreen were removed and re galvanised all the correct rivets have been used during the restoration showing the attention to detail.

The interior has benefited from Deluxe black vinyl seats Clayton heater refurbished Lucas wiper motors and a chrome interior light.

All windows open, all the window channels are new as are all the door rubbers.
The load area is exceptionally clean and doesn't show any sights of heavy use and is presented with a rubber mat. Matching rear bench seats are fitted.

The engine bays is neat and tidy and even after a good run she does not spit out oil. She purrs like a kitten as she was stripped down and rebuilt.

The factory fitted engine bursts into life at the turn of the key and a press of the button. Since her restoration she has been maintained and covered low mileage she runs as quiet and smooth as any Series Land Rover.

Four wheel drive and low range engage, as they should. The gears change up and down as they should the gear box was stripped down and rebuilt. She was recently fully serviced by the local independent LR garage.

The steering is as it should be and the vehicle doesn't wonder on the road like some series vehicles do. She is sitting on a brand new set of springs and BFG Goodridge all terrain snow rates tyres. They cost £600. OUCH!!!

She is fitted with a rare working rebuilt Fairly Capstan winch £1000 new Clayton heater £280 refurbished Fairly overdrive £850 free wheeling hubs . She has to be seen and driven to be fully appreciated

The vehicle has benefited from a new galvanised Davies chassis, Also had the new chassis T washed and painted in black. The vehicle is as clean underneath as on top any inspection is welcome.

The electrics are all new as she was fitted with a new Auto Spark Loom.
