1979 LAND ROVER LIGHTWEIGHT

2,200cc, petrol. This Lightweight Land Rover was first owned by the Ministry of Defence and not actually registered until 2000. Purchased by the vendor in 2020 who embarked on a restoration which was completed in 2021, this included a new canvas top and brakes overhaul. The vehicle has mostly been dry stored since. It was fitted with a new galvanised chassis by the previous owner plus a replacement MoD engine. Recent works include a new clutch master cylinder and oil change and filters. This Land Rover is above the average for condition and is described as running and driving well, although the vendor has declared a noisy wheel bearing. It's service history file includes the Ministry of Defence records, restoration photos, receipts for parts purchased by the vendor and the previous owner and MoTs. The mileage is recorded at 9,959.
