Description
I have for sale my Land Rover Series III, 6 cylinders petrol, that I have fully rebuilt under the idea of creating an amazing Green over Tan concept.
This unit, as all 6 cylinders petrols in Portugal, was a former fire fighter car, as only fire departments and military were allowed to get them in Portugal at the time. All other mush be diesel.
I have done extensive rebuilt to this land rover to create a singular unit.

It was an electrical fuel pump, carburettor rebuilt;
Plenty of new parts like fuel return filter, pipping and fasteners;
New ignition coil, sparks, HT leads, Main coil to distributer cap lead, new distributer cap and interior;

Not in the pictures, the car has its side windows in perfect shape, body colour painted, with its protection seals.
Interior and Details
The car as rebuilt seats - including a 3rd middle one not in picture, with genuine cognac leather;
Genuine cognac leather dash and same coloured lower dash;
Central wood center console, covered in genuine cognac leather with a fully functional Marshall speaker for bluetooth streaming;
All minor details like the gear levers tops are brand new;
Back deck, front driver and passenger footwell are in solid mahogany wood, treated and put together with beautiful bronze stainless steel.
The car has running MOT and drives beautifully, sounds amazing and it is such a joy. A truly special unit.
I believe the pictures speak by themselves.
