THIS IS A GENUINE BARN FIND!!!!!!!!
SERIES 1. 3. 5L V8 MANUAL WITH OVERDRIVE AND FREE WHEELING HUBS PARABOLIC SPRINGS AND UPRATED SHOCKS
YEAR 1956 88"
I DISCOVERED THIS IN A BARN ABOUT A MONTH AGO. I BROUGHT OFF A LADY THAT HAD OWNED FOR THE LAST 12 YEARS
SHE TOLD ME 12 YEARS AGO IT HAD A NUT AND BOLT RESTORATION AT A LAND ROVER DEALERSHIP AND I HAVE NO REASON TO DISBELIEVE THIS
SHE ONLY USED THIS AS A SUNDAY AFTERNOON TOY. IT HAS NOT BEEN ABUSED SINCE IT WAS DONE
I PULLED IT OUT OF THE BARN. GIVE IT A QUICK JET WASH TO GET THE DUST OFF AS IT HAS NOT BEEN USED FOR THE LAST 3 YEARS
I PUT FRESH PETROL. NEW BATTERY. STRIPPED THE CARBS AND CLEANED THEM OUT.
I HAVE FITTED NEW DISTRIBUTOR CAP. POINTS. CONDENSER. HT LEADS. ROTAR ARM AND PLUGS AND IT NOW RUNS ABS SPOT ON
THE V8 IS ONE OF THE SWEETEST V8'S IVE HEARD. IT HAS NO TAPPET NOISE WHAT SO EVER
THE CLUTCH WORKS FINE. ALL GEARS ENGAGE FINE
IT HAS OVERDRIVE. I HAVE DRIVEN THIS UP AND DOWN THE GARDEN AND ROUND THE BLOCK A FEW TIMES AND IT ALL DRIVES PERFECT
THE BRAKES ARE PULLING TO ONE SIDE SO WILL NEED LOOKING AT PROBABLY JUST NEED A GOOD CLEAN A FREEING OFF
I HAVE BROUGHT A SET OF STEEL WHEELS AS I WAS GOING TO FIT THEM. THEY WILL NEED NEW TYRES
THE WHEELS AND TYRES THAT ARE ON IT LOOK BRAND NEW
IT HAS ELECTRIC FAN THAT ALL WORKS
I AM ONLY SELLING THIS LAND ROVER AS I HAVE BEEN AFTER MY FRIENDS 90 FOR AGES AND HE HAS DECIDED TO SELL IT TO ME SO NEED TO FREE UP THE FUNDS OR I WOULDN'T BE SELLING
WITH THE V8 THIS LAND ROVER SOUNDS THE NUTS. CERTAINLY TURNS HEADS
IT IS ON ITS ORIGINAL NUMBER PLATE. THE CHASSIS IS ABS ROCK SOLID. SO IS BULK HEAD. FRONT SWIVELS ARE DRY (NO LEAKS)
ONE WEEKENDS WORK WITH A LITTLE TINKERING TO THE BREAKS AND THIS LANDY IS READY TO GO
ALSO COMES WITH THE REAR HOOP IF YOU WANT IT. I DO NOT HAVE THE SOFT TOP BUT THESE ARE READILY AVAILABLE 
IT IS MOT AND TAX EXEPMT
ALL LIGHTS WORK
LIKE I SAID BEFORE IT WAS A FULL RESTORATION 12 YEARS AGO BUT IT HAS DONE NOTHING SINCE SO IS STILL IN EXCELLENT CONDITION.
