1974 Land Rover

Updated with a large price drop as I need the space!

The Little Monster is for sale. This is a 1974 Series 111 Land Rover that has been modified for strong off road performance and very civilized performance through the streets.

I’ve had the vehicle for three years, however I’ve covered only a few hundred of it’s 54,000 miles during this period as I’ve got a number of other racing and work commitments, so it has to go.

The spec is very strong, with a combination of Defender and Range Rover components to modernize, add agility or refinement. Full spec as follows:

1. Series 111 1974 with 54,000 miles

2. Range Rover 3.9 V8 EFI engine mapped and running in non-cat configuration for balanced performance and economy

3. Manual 5 speed gearbox with hi-lo ratios and diff lock

4. Power steering with new steering box and linkage in 2019

6. 4 inch lift kit, fully independent suspension and disk brakes all round

5. New heavy duty drive shafts to allow for lift kit

6. Hydraulic clutch so simple gear-changes

7. Maxxis Creepy Crawler tyres for off road traction and ground clearance, all with bead lockers to prevent losing pressure

8. Defender light weight body including kick plates, rear bars and side bars for easy access

9. Solid front bull bars for protection with front and rear winches to keep you on the move

10. LED front side lights and headlights, so a much improved visibility at night

11. Large LED light bar on the front, with two strong LED spotlights on the rear for maximum visibility

12. Composite fuel tank under the driver’s seat, with additional large capacity tank behind the front seats for longer range

13. High pressure fuel pump and pressure regulator to feed the V8

14. Engine core plugs replaced in 2018

15. V8 breathes through standard EFI system, through branch manifolds into a custom made stainless side exit exhaust with silencer

15. Interior has been developed for working or passenger use

16. Custom headlining and soundproofing throughout

17. Colour coded front seats with rear bench seats and fitted seat-belts

18. Rubber matting throughout the rear with kick plates and black carpet in the front

19. Custom dashboard, with standard speedo, fuel and temperature together with all exterior lighting, and twin engine fan

20. CB running through the stereo, with charging indicators and heating controls

21. Additional heating fans fitted for the colder days that clear the windscreen very quickly

22. The stereo has Bluetooth, CD, external Aux and phone control together with four speakers, powered and hidden sub

23. The system can make the windows shake if that’s you thing, or just drown out any wind noise at higher speeds

24. Just had a new starter motor fitted, the old one worked but was slowing down, and it has a large battery to power the winches and all the components

That covers all the main points, Tax is free due to the vehicle age, and insurance costs me £120 per year.

It’s truly unstoppable in the dirt and will cruise at over 70mph on the road with tight steering and the grunt from the V8

It comes with a fresh 12 month MOT and I’m looking for £9,995 ono.

I’m sure there are more, but please ask if you have any questions.

Thanks
