Land Rover Series 3 109 Utility
Where do I
start??
I bought Sid in March, with
the view to restore and using her as a daily driver, but due to the fact I have
so many other project, this one has just sat there, so with a reality check
that I won’t get around to doing anything with it I have now decided to definitely
sell it.
The patina and hand scripted sign writing look excellent on the vehicle
and the previous have no problem in this been keep on the vehicle when it is restored.
Sid was fitted with a 5.5 litre Bedford 330 (RL) engine and gearbox,
but this was sadly removed before I purchased her. The DVLA have it registered
as a 3,300cc, but it was 5,500 (or should have been).
See youtube clip when she was running the Bedford lump.

The last picture show her in her former glory circa 1985.
She has not been on the road since approx. 1992.
The engine bay was modded to the larger engine (but I actually like the
look, but this could easily be put back to normal, with a little work).
The rear of the Sid is racked out, but the compressor and tanks have
also been removed from the underside.
There is NO
engine or gearbox with the vehicle, and there may also be other bits missing
that I have not noticed, this was going to be a full nut and bolt restoration.
I will have to forward the V5c when I find, if not I will re-apply for one and forward, once I get back in the UK
This is a full restoration project, and viewing is recommended, as you
are bidding to buy not waste peoples time and I don’t want bad feedback, I am
away on business, but she can be view at my friend garage (TS17 area), whilst I
am away during business hours (7:30-16:30) Monday to Friday.
