    Unusual Project, Not Many Like it

    zoom in under the bonnet, its totally factory, with exception of the rad hose clips.. but knowing BL that's probably standard as well.. no tampered wiring, everything in situ, just the bolt and butterfly nut missing from the air cleaner.. Likewise the interior , no add on or butchery ..just...

    Unusual Project, Not Many Like it

    Looking at these pics again, it looks like its been on hard standing by the appearance of the moss on the tar around the truck, and that the owner had supported the weight by lowering the support legs . When you consider this is a cherry picker it was probably never used in the wet or inclement...

    I would bet thats low miles . Looks like 30,000 on the speedo . shame its been sat in the damp but the bulkhead looks solid and the rest looks straight apart from the dent in the roof .. weigh in the snorkel and its a good useable truck :)

    BUMP :) Has barely turned a wheel since add placed . Love it to bits but unfortunately I dont use it often enough, starts first time every time ( thats jinxed that then) and drives realy well for a classic landrover ,not at all choppy or harsh .. to many new parts on it to mention no bodges or...

    well after being a bit side tracked with this I decided that I didnt want to spend any time or money on it so gave it to the fella I had the series one panels from.. I was kinda glad to see the back of it to be honest . It was a good idea at the time but I soon realised that it was distracting...

    109 for sale

    Its right at home in the Angus Glens and the Cairngorms National Park, It would be a great old thing for a local Farmer, much more robust and reliable than an electronically managed supercar on a 4x4 platform and around £50,000 cheeper :)

    one of those things ..I took my old fella to the docs then straight to hospital, 10 hours later he had a pacemaker fitted.. He is fine now but at 86 he does need a bit more attention , garden work, a bit of cleaning and all the rest . I live 20 miles away so doing that in the land rover wasn't...
