Up for sale is a Super Rare 1967 Land Rover 109 Forward Control. This Truck came from South Africa and was one of the rare ones that was well preserved. It was used has a extreme safari vehicle, and was retired and later restored. Comes with Clean Florida Title.
They were made until the early 70's and later on ceased production. Very few were actually manufactured, and most of them that did were never sold to the civilian market. Most of the Forward Control were sold as work trucks, and were generally worked hard. This hard work combined with relatively low production numbers, means that few Forward Controls survive. Many of the survivors are conversions (e.g.. camper vans and fire engines) that led a less strenuous life. This distinctive vehicle was based on the Series II 109" chassis but had the cab positioned over the engine, resulting in a greatly increased load space. A new rear sub-frame was attached to the 109" chassis to produce a flat load space. The result was a vehicle rated at carrying 30 cwt on the road, and 25 cwt cross-country.
The original engine was a 4-cylinder 2.25-litre diesel engine and now has a more reliable Chevrolet 250cid Straight-six engine. You can find parts easily for this engine and order them online as well. Has 4-speed transmission. Check out my video of the 109 FC driving. It sits really high and is just cool to drive! It has 2 radiators, one with one big fan and the other radiator with 2 fans. Car runs cool! It has really nice brown upholstery that was redone. Has a roof latch that lets you access the roof area. Also has a full storage area in the back. Has the rear guard bar with full spare. You can also but your bicycle in the back. It also has a water tank. Lots of really cool features. Apparently less then 2,500 were made!
