This beautiful Land Rover Series 2a is a recently completed restoration, shipped from Spain to the U.S. with very few miles on the clock. It features a rebuilt 2.25L Land Rover petrol engine, tested to show factory compression and operating exactly as it should. It's turning a robust rebuilt series 3 transmission, which shifts sharply and cleanly, complete with Fairey overdrive unit. It has been completely inspected and verified by Burro 4X4 in Richmond VA, and has no mechanical faults. A brand new exhaust system keeps it running quietly, with all new hanging hardware. The engine is running cleanly on a Pertronix distributor and Flame Thrower coil, which eliminates otherwise common problems with points and condensors. This ensures the engine will run maintenance free for many years.
All brake components have been replaced and adjusted, and are in excellent functional condition. The car is sitting on 4 brand new Michelin mud terrain tires, with the fifth as a full size spare mounted on the hood.
The interior features a set of new Exmoor trim elephant hide seats all around, including galvanized rear bench seating. Being an early Santana, there are only a few minor differences to the British manufacture, including metric odometer and speedometer, as well as Spanish information plates, but the heart of the Land Rover marque is still present, with all of the mechanical functions exactly as one would expect from a British built Land Rover. The frame, while not galvanized, is very clean and solid, with no rust whatsoever, and is painted black. The body is coated in the classic Land Rover Bronze Green color. It features a brand new Exmoor Trim canvas top, with a new galvanized hoop set for support. All electrical components are functional, and the side marker, turn signal lights and brake lights are illuminated by rare all-glass fixtures.
Currently residing at Burro 4x4 in Richmond VA, the vehicle has been checked and tested inside and out, and found to be in excellent shape in every category. Overall this is an excellent specimen of a historically significant vehicle that will operate beautifully and trouble-free every time you get behind the wheel.
