hi just bought a 1980 series 3 109. got it cheap £450 i say cheap alltho i had a ex electric board 1987 110 12 years ago that i paid £750 for that i fitted a isuzu 2.8 engine i had which transformed it but anyway back to series 3 . ive got a mercedes 609 chassis with running gear that the series 3 is going to be extended and fitted on. It will lose its 4wd but will then have the merc 4ltr om364 di engine that will do 100s of k miles without fault . its going to be a working vehicle so no pretty shiney things will be added just stuff that will make it usefull as thats what they were intended to be in the first place . i know there has never been anouther vehicle thats had so many different engines than a landy but ive not seen a lorry chassis version. IM SURE THERE ARE LOADS THO . if the purists out there want to get up in arms im sure your in a minority as nearly every land rover i have ever come across has had to altered in many ways just to keep it going
