Default Got a "new" rover! Check it out!

I thought I would show you guys the new rover that happened to fall into my lap over the weekend. It is a 1967 Series IIa 109 with a four speed diesel. It runs but of course needs some work with the brakes and such. I don't know too much about the older models but am excited to learn. If anyone has any resources that would help please let me know. I will also be selling the series 1 disco if anyones interested.

Thanks! I can't wait to dig into it and start figuring it out. Driving on the right will be interesting and I've never owned a diesel before.

UNBELIEVEABLE

I dare say that's a dream truck - PLEASE post pics as you work on it.

hell, post picks even as you look out your window at it.

Just occured to me, we all know where Tennesee is!

If you've not been on landyzone/uk - go there those brits are a freak show - they've got cool stuff on series trucks

congrats,greg
