1963 Land Rover 2A Defender Hybrid Softtop -LHD, V8, Auto, Coil Chassis, PS/PB for sale
Current customer rating: (505 votes ) based onLeft-hand drive 1963 Series 2A soft-top rebuilt on 1992 Range Rover platform with coil sprung chassis. 3. 9L V8 engine. ZF automatic transmission. power steering. disc brakes. heat and more. Most capable Rover you will ever find! Never belonged to a duke or duchess. didn't transport injured soldiers to safety in the Falklands. never been to the moon and wasn't a "rare barn find. " The only story here is that this Rover is a beast! I'll let you finish the story to go along with this vehicle. I will say this it the way that Land Rover should have built the Defender - 100" wheelbase. 2+" of lift. 32" mud tires on NATO wheels. 24" of clearance. winch bumper. extended cab and no other bells/whistles. This Land Rover is capable of anything. Great to drive - vintage looks with modern capabilities. Pick her up today and hit the trail tomorrow. If you are considering other Rovers. my personal comments from my own experience are that unless you deliver mail. right-hand drive gets old; Rover hardtops are hotter and noisier than $h!t - not to mention they weigh a ton; 45MPH top speed gets f. r. u. s. t. r. a. t. i. n. g; 4-cylinder engines are about 4-cylinders underpowered. and illegal imports get confiscated upon entry.

Bumper Mounted Fog Lights – just installed - need to be wired Note: If you are looking for a showroom paint job (I obviously wasn't). you will have to take care of that yourself. As good as the pictures look. up close the paint is rough. It was sprayed white to match the Defender bonnet. windscreen and radiator support. nbsp; and the tub interior is still Series Pastel Green.
Terms & Conditions - Note. this was a rebuild project – not a restoration. It is far from perfect. It has dents. dings. imperfections and wear and tear representative of a vehicle of this era. It also has custom and non-genuine elements incorporated over the years. so purists be warned. Of course. it will always need care and attention. Classic Rovers were truly over-engineered and will last forever. but will still require on-going care. maintenance and repair. If you are unsure of your ability to keep up with needs of a unique. older vehicle. you should probably look at other options. I want to pass this on to someone who knows what they are getting into and will appreciate the uniqueness of old Rovers.
