Vehicle Description

transitional between the 109 and 110s. A scarce Land Rover in
Europe, even rarer in here. Reported less than 100 existing in the
US. Solid, AZ rust-free Long wheelbase model in the uncommon 3dr
Panel configuration. Runs and drives well for a vintage Land Lover.
The iconic and ultra-classic Landie we all grew up with. Unexpected
expenses from wife's pregnancy force reluctant sale. 130,000
odometer miles in MPH. Odometer replaced in 2009 with a MPH unit by
Sun City Autoworks in AZ. Stored at Ft Huachuca in Sierra Vista for
the last few years. This is a 1981 model, sold new in 1981, but
