1984 Land Rover Series 3 2.25ltr Diesel LHD
Era classics are pleased to offer another stunning fully restored Series 3 that's just been subject to a meticulous professional full restoration from the ground up using the best quality components and superb attention to detail.
Starting life off as an export military service vehicle this example had only been used for light duty work and with continued regular maintenance and as you would expect for service vehicles it was a superb base vehicle to begin the restoration. Build date of 4 December 1984 and imported to the UK in 1993.
Originally leaving the factory in Nato green the whole vehicle was stripped and rebuilt from the ground up on a new powder coated Richards galvanised chassis and then treated to a full professional respray in period correct pastel green.
Overview of works completed:
New Richards galvanised chassis, powder coated.
Repaired original bulkhead with all new footwells. Original bulkhead was in great condition with minimal work required (inspected and waxoiled)
All galvanised parts re galvanised and any painted parts were powder coated where possible.
New panels including front outer wings, rear quarter panels, door bottoms, galvanised doors and door tops and new anti-burst locks.
Original 2.25 diesel engine, fully stripped and rebuilt and runs beautifully.
Restored and rebuilt 4 speed syncro gearbox.
Ashcroft transfer box upgrade giving taller gear ratios than a standard overdrive and makes the Land Rover much more versatile on todays roads. Low range is still the same.
All running gear axle parts/seals and brakes etc are all new
New parabolic springs and new exhaust.
New electric system including new Auto Sparks loom
New glass all round.
Deluxe front seat upgrade with inertia seat belts and rear bench seats with lap belts.
Original steering wheel fully refurbished and covered in leather along with the retrimmed vinyl dash board.
Avon Rangemaster tyres on new Wolf style 6J steel wheels powder coasted black and Super Winch freewheeling hubs gives this Series 3 a really purposeful look.
Whole body taken back to bare metal where possible and epoxy primed with 3 further coats of 2 pack pastel green paint to a lovely gloss finish.
All panels painted individually before being fitted up and all dome rivets in correct aluminium and not painted over.
New Exmoor trim sand canvas hood with side windows.
All galvanised cappings, window frames and original hood sticks re-galvanised as new and all other bright work and stainless fixings or re plated in zinc.
It is now a lovely driving Series 3 that is ready to be enjoyed in the city streets or coastal cruising.
