Vehicle Description
Worldwide Vintage Autos is pleased to present this 1966 Land Rover
Series 88.
HISTORY
The Land Rover series I, II, and III (commonly referred to as
series Land Rovers, to distinguish them from later models) are
off-road vehiclesproduced by the British manufacturer Rover
Company. The Land Rover was the first mass-produced civilian
four-wheel drive car with doors on it. In 1992, Land Rover claimed
that 70% of all the vehicles they had built were still in use. Most
series models feature leaf-sprung suspension with selectable two or
four-wheel drive (4WD), however series I's produced between 1948
and mid-1951 had constant 4WD via a freewheel mechanism, and the
Stage 1 V8 version of the series III featured permanent 4WD. All
three models could be started with a front hand crank and had the
option of front & rear power takeoffs for accessories.
