A 1952 Land Rover Series one 80" wheelbase. One of the very rare ones with left hand drive. This one was one of two identical imported to Vancouver BC in 1952; In Bronze green. I think the hood is original paint.Its a standard 4 speed with high/low rangeThe car has new battery, rebuilt brake cylinders and master cylinder, rebuilt 1600cc engine, new carburetor and generally cleaned up after it had been sitting in a garage for 25 years. Reupholstered on original seat frames, a new canvas truck cab cover.It even has it's original capstan, which is not functional right now but the parts are there to make it work. The frame is excellent, which I think is because its been here on the west coast all its life and never been off roading.It has its winter side curtains and the new top, which I put on crudely for the pics, so it looks wrinkly.Mileage is vague; odometer non functional. It starts, runs and stops well, but the steering is very heavy for me particularly, with the skinny steering wheel. i'm 80. i have a replacement steering wheel.The body is not pristine, some repairs and dings, so not a show car. Some electrics need work.....no tail lights, but has working headlights. The windscreen wipers don't work, although there is one rare original wiper motor. The light green paint job is an over spray, because somewhere in its life it had some parts painted orange....a company truck? It's here in Vancouver BC. I know nothing of shipping but can find out. I doubt that customs to the US would be a problem.Any questions or more specific pics let me know.
