Welcome to AdventureMotorCar's online listing. You are looking at a 1970 Limestone Land Rover Series IIA Hard Top model. This vehicle was restored about ten years ago and has only been driven 17,500 miles since the restoration.  The restoration began by taking the Land Rover down to the original frame, having it powdercoated, and then building everything up on the powdercoated frame.  Each body panel was carefully disassembled, refinished, repainted, and reinstalled.  The 2.25L engine was ordered from TURNER ENGINES in the UK with 5 bearings making it much more powerful.  A Fairey overdrive has been installed to make it able to reach comfortable highway speeds.  The transmission and transfer cases were rebuilt.  The owner decided to add NAS Defender 90 front door hinges, mirrors, rear tailgate, spare tire carrier, third brake light, POE upper clamshell tailgate, and side marker lenses.  On the interior, he used Defender 90 front seats, Tuffy console, rear bench seat, rear rubber matting, and rear Tuffy storage boxes.   The headliner was replaced with a LaSalle 2-piece headliner, complete with 4 speakers and a stereo. 

Options include; 5 bearing TURNER 2.25L 4 cylinder engine, four-speed manual transmission, Fairey overdrive, Hardtop (with sliding rear windows and upper clamshell), 16"steel Wheels, 265/ 75/ 16 All Terrain BF Goodrich tires, (4) passenger seating, Kenwood AM/ FM/ CD player stereo system, (6) Speakers, Land Rover rubber matting (front and rear), and more!

The exterior is in great condition. The repaint was done to a high quality and the paint has a very good sheen.   There are some small flaws expected of a ten year old restoration (see pics).  The wheels look good and the tires have at least 75% tread remaining.

The interior is in good condition. All seats look good and the rubber matting has less wear than you would expect.

This Series drives very well. The manual transmissions weren't sycronized until 1972, so like every 1948 - 1971 Land Rover, you'll have to double clutch from first to second.  The overdrive is very smooth, but reverse and first have a slight knocking sound at high speeds.
