Description for Land Rover Series 3 SWB 1973
This is Our Jenny, its a completely original Short Wheel Base Right Hand Drive Land Rover Series 3 that started its life in the Uk, ended up in Austria then Melbourne Australia and finally driving home here to Byron Bay Australia.Will she continue her travel of the globe and end up in another country maybe??
I hope so, it would be the best story ever for this much loved amazing die hard old girl.
Everything is totally original and unspoiled, the chassis is amazing and original, the back cross-member (tow bar) has been repaired to Australian roadworthy spec, the internal firewall/bulkhead has a new plate and everything works well even the fan and heat exchanger which has been dismantled cleaned and flushed, the light circuit has been upgraded to modern halogens including relay, of course, all carefully installed and without disturbing the original look.
Replaced alternator and excellent battery.
Tyres are Yokohama radial snow off road's and with lots of tread and the wheels themselves are in excellent original condition showing very little fatigue or rust.
Front hubs have been serviced for Aussie roadworthy including all new seals and compounds etc. Right down to the inner swivel ball seal. Good brakes pads and new lines all around and flushed.
Body work is very straight, clean and tidy and very original! Has a fabulous petina that turns heads.
Never fails to start and springs to life with a quarter turn!
