Sellers Comments -
For the SERIOUS LAND ROVER OFF-ROADERS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THIS IS A BIG BEAST.

SOMEONE HAD SPENT A GREAT DEAL OF MONEY ON THIS. BUILT TO A VERY HIGH STANDARD. YOU REALLY MUST VIEW IT IN PERSON TO SEE THE WORK THAT HAS GONE INTO THIS BADMOTHER !!!!!!

Please study the pictures if you can't come and view.
Chassis is in very good condition.
Bulkhead good. Door hinges good.
Whoever built this LEVIATHAN even made the exhaust system so that it came through the existing large hole on the rear cross member. TOUCH OF GENIUS !!

New style V5 present and matches vin plate. Built on a 1966 Series 2A, so free road tax.
I bought this from a fellow farmer who had it stored in his barn for the last couple of years.
I do have mot history with it. YES IT HAS BEEN USED ON ROADS AS WELL AS SOME SERIOUS OFF ROADING !
Last MOT expired October 2014.
I have previous mots from 2013, 2012, 2011, 2010 and 2006. Plus V5 document.

This is where my 500+ positive feedback comes in. You see I have had it running and driving across one of my fields. Clutch, gearbox, brakes all are good. BUT the Discovery engine fitted was very very smokey. I am not a mechanic so have no idea what causes this smoke, I just wanted to see if it would start and drive. It did take a brand new heavy duty tractor battery, not included in sale, and a lot of turning it over before it did fire up and start.

Started it again today to move out of my shed to take pictures and again it did take a helluva lot of turning over before it did fire up and start. Still very smokey, but again clutch and gearbox and brakes all good.

SO JUST TO COVER MYSELF HERE.....IT IS BEING SOLD AS NEEDING WORK TO THE ENGINE.
I DONT KNOW WHAT WORK IT NEEDS . 

OK , BACK TO THE BODY OF THIS MONSTER......
It stands at 5 foot tall to the doors and must be 7 foot tall to the top of the windscreen !!!!!
Sitting on superb 265/75 tyres and very clean wheels. These must have cost a small fortune and really are hardly used.

BODYWORK as you can see is VERY STRAIGHT INDEED. Zoom in and see.
Fitted with very strong side steps.
Fitted with large HELLA spot lamps, not wired up.
Fitted with reverse light and fog light, both working.

Fitted with half leather seats, possibly from a Rover coupe?
Fitted with working heater between the 2 seats.
Fitting with cooling fan for radiator, working.
Wiper motor working but no wipers fitted.
Washer pump working but pipes not connected.
Sidelights working. Headlights working only on passenger side.
Air horns fitted and working.

I think it has a MOMO leather rimmed steering wheel fitted.

Comes with 2 good glazed door tops as shown. And light guards as shown.
