1970 Land Rover Series 2A 2.25 petrol 88” station wagon
First registered 11/05/1970
Only 6 owners from new
Heritage certificate indicates light green paintwork and a build date of 19/11/1969.
Maltese cross grill/lights in the wings and chassis number 31500567. With only 250 UK RHD home market station wagons built, many were exported so this is a true survivor.
Full 7 seater variant with luxury trim, sound proofing, headlining and door cards as standard.
Superbly finished and rare this original home market station wagon has just been subject to a full nut and bolt restoration on a Richards galvanised chassis. Having been stripped down and completely rebuilt it is now ready to be enjoyed by the new owner knowing that the only additional expense required will be annual service work.
