Default Land Rover series 2a V8 SWB 1964 SoftTop tax exempt (NO RESERVE)

see on ebay: here


I bought this in July 2010 for £3,500.00 (bought by last owner in 2000 for £2,900.00) and I have covered less than a thousand miles since I bought it. I am selling this vehicle as I simply don’t use it

Since then I have spent money getting the engine running well, reconditioned the gearbox, added a new clutch & much more (I have spent an additional £3,800! See below)

628 WYD I believe was rebuilt in1999 when it was fitted with a Rover 3.5 V8, upgraded drivetrain and brakes (supported with engineers report). The engine starts first time, everytime, even after being left for a few months, and sounds great. Needless to say, with the V8 this is a very quick 1964 Land Rover. No overheating or funny knocks/clunks etc. It steers very nicely with very little play.

Has two seats in the front (possibly 3) + 2 benches in the back. I don’t know how many poeple it officially seats as not noted in V5 - possibly 7.

Spec:

Rover 3.5 EFi + SU Carbs, K&N filters

Servo assisted Series 3 LWB brakes

Engineers report for conversion

Push button start

Tax exempt

New tilt 2012

Freewheel front hubs

Jake Wright exhaust

Colway 235/35 R16 on/offroad tyres

Front military bumper with towball, tow eyes

Front bash plate

Rear dog Guard

Roll bar

Iphone 4 doc with speakers

Lightweight style heater

86,700 miles probably not correct



Original reg – must be worth afew quid on its own!


Tax to March 2014


12 Month MOT NO ADVISORIES! (to 8th Oct 2014)


Work I’ve had done at various garages:



Reset Ignition timing

Strip/Clean/Adjust carbs

Adjust valve rockers

Install fan controller (previously manual)

Fuel pump

Plugs

Oil/antifreeze

2 break drums

Brake shoes

Brake fluid

Gearbox reconditioned

New rear prop shaft Universal joint

Transfer unit shaft & roller bearings

New clutch

New washer pump

Engine mounts

New tilt 2012



The body is relatively straight and dent free(ish) for an older Land Rover and was sold to me in 2010 as ‘having a nice patina’. The paintwork is pretty tired & has some cracks yet suits the vehicle well.

This Land Rover is great fun in summer with the top down or in winter & offroad when it comes into its own. There are no known faults and again, I am selling as I hardly drive it.

If you are interested I strongly recommend you view it before bidding by arrangement near Doncaster (Bawtry) – call 07515 955191. You are bidding to buy

PLEASE: no silly offers. No ‘Buy it now’



Cash on collection or bank transfer swiftly after auction ends
