1952 Gendarmerie Police Series One 80 Classic Land Rover Barn Find Restoration Ex-Belgium Police Land Rover -Collectors Item Rare Find

Sellers Comments - For sale: land rover series 1 80 inch LHD One of the batch 2663-vehicles that was sent to belgium as CKD-vehicles. Used by the belgian police/gendarmerie. This would make a great restoration project. A very Rare find and one for the true collector Details : 5 wheels dated '51, so an early 1952 model. Every bodypanel has traces of the original dark blue paint, although it got painted over with some kind of green paint, would be possible to remove the green paint and keep the patinated blue layer. The condition of the panels is reasonable, although the left front wing has got a dent that was masked a bit with bodyfiller. Some details as u can see in the pictures are typical for the gendarmerie vehicles, so is the heavy duty canvas frame with four brackets so the policemen in the back had something to hold on. A first aid kit and holder, a search light hole underneath front windscreen, some remainings of drop down number plate bracket, two little flag brackets at windscreen hinges, and so on. The bulkhead isnt in the best shape, some optional non original holes where cut through for extra gauges, buttons and big hole for an old aftermarket heater that i removed. A very skilled welder could maybe get it refurbished. The rear crossmember is a non original one (could be replaced with a Radfords rear crossmember), and the front bumper is welded onto the chassis, so this would need a minor repair. As u can see the steering wheel isnt original, but an original one is supplied with the vehicle. It has correct paperwork for a 6/7 seater, so the rear seats can be used, it is not a commercial two seater. Under the bonnet it has a Peugeot Indenor diesel, connected to the original series 1 gearbox. The engine is loose, u can turn it over by hand, although condition is unknown and not working atm as the electrics need many work to be done. Vehicle is located near ypres in Belgium, which is about 1h15 from calais. Payment cash on collection

1952 Land Rover Series 1 80"

Sellers Comments - Into - Advertising on behalf of a very good friend: Here is our much-loved Series 1 80 inch. It is a late 80 with the 2 litre engine, external door handles and T-shaped grill. As you can see it has a lovely patina and is full of character having never been restored or drastically modified.
It is up and running, being largely original and over 60 years old it has a few jobs which would improve it but I have been using it daily with no problems. Chief problem is a new one - the radiator has sprung a leak - it is the original and would be good to be recored.
Built in July 1952 it has had just three owners from new. Supplied through Windmill & Lewis of Bristol, the first owner was a Desmond Hawkins who worked for the BBC and was one of the founders of the Natural History Unit. In 1957 she passed to a Mr Unwin who ran a couple of caravan parks in the Kewstoke area. Here the Land Rover worked as a site vehicle until the mid 1970s when it was parked up.

Land Rover Series One 1 80" Feb 1950, RHD, lights behind grille model, Barn find Incredibly solid, dry stored for 24 years, WD supplied

Sellers Comments -
Introduction:

I have been the happy custodian of this Solihull treasure for the last nine years: where it has sat quietly in the back of the garage and always aroused much interest...

We have a Land Rover garage here in Normandy, specialising in Range Rover Classics, but we love anything from the Green Oval stable: we have just had a beautiful baby boy join the family, and I'm now struggling to convince my good lady wife why I need thirty-seven Land Rovers!! Hence it is now (reluctantly) up for sale...

The Landy is in remarkably good and almost completely rust-free condition, which is why I bought it. It was last on the road in 1991, and has been correctly dry-stored ever since...

A little about the known history of the car:

This car left the production line in February 1950, and was part of a government War Department contract: it's original military registration number was 18 BC 76 , and it still has the W^D brass plaque on the bulkhead. The Chassis number is of the R061 series, which dates it as a '50 model year RHD home market model...

A plaque on the rocker cover shows that it was overhauled in Ashford, Middlesex in September 1956, under repair order number 11620.

I have no idea of it's disposal date, and would love to here from any series one buffs  who may be able to add further information...

It came over to France in the mid-eighties, and was sold to the head of a well-known French arms manufacturer for use on his country estate. ( I shall make no allusions to the production of rubber rifles that simply bounce when dropped, as my French lady wife will undoubtedly read this: I will therefore allow you to draw your own inferences...)

At some point during his tenure, the engine was removed due to a broken crankshaft, and the Landy was fitted with a petrol engine which, I am informed, was taken from a Hotchkiss jeep. Not long thereafter, he sold the car to a friend of his, who used it until 1991, intending to repair the original motor.


It sat in a corner of his stables, patiently awaiting an engine rebuild that never took place, for a further fifteen years, before I purchased the Landy in 2006...

1952 Land Rover Series 1 80" Tax & MOT Exempt

.You are looking at a 1952 Land Rover Series 1 80", first registered on 03/01/1952.


Sellers Comments
This really is an amazing little Landy, read on! This 63 year old has a recently fitted 200tdi engine and reconditioned gearbox fitted. She also benefits from a Fairey Overdrive unit that brings the revs down on longer journeys and helps return that 30mpg! I really like this old girl, its a bit special.
Also fitted is RRC differentials which give it the road speed and drivability of a Defender so it's very usable. It is in fact my daily driver car. It's ready to drive away, it's tax and MOT exempt due to it's historic status but I also have a valid MOT for her and piece of mind.
The chassis is in great condition, very solid indeed. Rare aluminium bulkhead which is perfect. The photos speak a thousand words.
If you are looking for an'original' vehicle then this is not for you but if you like fun, drivability, head turning journeys then you'll totally love this old girl. Guaranteed to make you smile.
The Capstan winch is not connected, ammo box and ropes are not included, private reg may be included dependent on sale price. Currently running rear wheel drive only as the front diff needs the correct unit fitting which is included. I never use for off roading so never changed it when the rear was fitted.

If you have any questions whatsoever, please feel free to phone me on 07875556687 any time up until around 9.00pm. The Land Rover is situated near Manchester Airport and any inspection is invited. Delivery can also be arranged if required.

Land Rover Series 1 80" Great Condition 1952 Model Year NO RESERVE! We can deliver nationwide




Sellers Comments
Land Rover Series 1 80" a nice honest example that requires light recommissioning.
To be sold with NO RESERVE!!!
It could be an ideal restoration project as the chassis and bulkhead are very solid, bodywork is straight as well you would be saving thousands on these items. On the other side though it is far from needing restoration and only requires the brakes looking at as one or two wheels are binding this is probably due to the wheel cylinders seizing. It is a very usable vehicle. 
9 previous owners the last has owned it for 18 years and prior to that it has remained in Herefordshire and so it has been in long term ownership for most of it's life hence it's unmolested condition. It was first registered on the 1st November 1951 however it is a 261 chassis number and so is a 1952 model year and so has the later upgrades. 
Finished in Bronze Green with matching wheels it looks how all Land Rovers should.
An Mot dating back to 2007 shows that the vehicle has only covered very few miles since.
Over the years this Land Rover has always been well looked after and it's great to see a Land Rover in such nice condition.
It still has a 2 litre petrol engine although not the original it is out of a later series 1 but it fits all the same and no modification have been made to the chassis to fit it. It is a good runner and starts on the button. It has plenty of power and the Land Rover should drive well once the brakes are dealt with.  The Land Rover has a very good chassis which still retains a lot of it's original paint there is surprisingly hardly any corrosion on the chassis other than surface rust in areas which has been treated and so it requires no attention. It has had two dumb irons on the front at some stage but they have been done properly.
Considering it's age inside the cabin on the Land Rover is very good, with a new set of seats and a few odd jobs this Land Rover would really tidy up nicely and it's far from being worth £15,000, we simply don't have the time to finish this one and have too many other projects on the go and so we would rather move it on to somebody who can but some time into bringing it back up to standard.  Also the rear tub inside has hardly any dents in it which is quite unusual for a Land Rover this shows that the use it has had over the years has only been light. The engine bay is very original and standard and has come up very well. 
Any inspections or questions are welcome, please remember that the vehicle is 64 years old and so isn't has it left the showroom.
