If the engine was original to the Land Rover then it ought to be 2 litre .

I thought they all came out of the factory with the exhaust exiting on the side . The right hand side at the back !

I am not really able to tell you the difference between Series One and Series Two hoods as I have never been in a position to compare them . But as the rear tub of the Series Ones are very different to the Series Twos I think trying to adapt one would be more trouble than it is worth . That is...

This is the only photo I have and even that isn't very helpful.

Now I am really confused . Ex moor Trim do not have 109" full canvas hoods for Series One 109"s( or if they do I couldn't find them). They do have 109" full canvas hoods for Series Two and Three 109"s . They are not interchangeable as they are different sizes completely . As I said before a full...

The extra two inches on the 109" is at the front . The front axle was moved forward to accommodate the new diesel , it does not affect anything passed the bulkhead . The hood sticks will be the same for a 107" and a109", although as neither of them were sold with a full length canvas roof...

The date must be wrong , as there is nothing Series One about that Land Rover. Why would anyone in this day and age devalue their Series One by turning it into a Series Three ? Should it be 1965 rather than 1956 ?

I am a bit confused . At the start you said that this is a 1971 Series Three but the number plate and bulkhead says it is a IIa. The heading also says that it is a IIa . Have I missed something ? Having said that , you have done a good job .

You are more likely to find these items here.... http://www.lrsoc.com/forum/index.php. Though if you put some commas between the items they will be more understandable.

Another good reason for joining the LRSOC is that there are quite a few members who live in the States some of whom might be able to give you help . May we take it that yours won't end up looking like this one ! ( I actually like the look of it)

Here are a couple of photos of RGX 73 . 5 years ago it resided in a barn next to my 107" pickup . The number plate can be seen on the wing behind the steering wheel .

Possibly , but Richards are the only manufactureres that build Series One chassis these days . Whether they have the pattern for a 107" station wagon I couldn't say , because they are different to standard 107" chassis . I wouldn't be surprised if it cost £5,000 to have one built and shipped to...

Hi Riddic, welcome to the forum . Although you may get some useful help here I am inclined to think that , if you have not already been there , you will get more help from here ... http://www.lrsoc.com/forum/index.php . Photos will help . Good luck with your project .

If that doesn't work you could try asking your question here http://www.lrsoc.com/forum/index.php. There will be someone who knows the answer .

Get yourself a Toyota then you stand a good chance of getting home !

Have you joined the Land Rover Series One Club yet ? If not that will be the best investment you will make . In addition you should have a look at their forum http://www.lrsoc.com/forum/index.php where you will find many helpful people telling you what you should be doing with your 80" ! You...

Why ?

Series 11s are rarer than 11As as they were only made for three years, although the differences are minimal . If I were in the market for something like that I would want a Series11 rather than anything later. To my mind if the later upgrades work leave them for the time being as they could...

Don't forget that you will need to wear your purple thermal socks because it will be chilly when you do it .

https://www.t7design.co.uk. I have one of their heaters in my 107" Series One . I can't report on how good it is because since being fitted it has not been cold . Here's one fitted to (I think) a IIa
