By 1970, the classic Land Rover of the 40’s and 50’s had been upgraded in both style and performance, and this fantastic matching numbers example exhibits all those developments. The head lamps were moved out wide, the cabin ventilation improved, and power brakes were added, but one thing did not change – the rugged durability and off-road capabilities are still there for you to enjoy today.

This fully restored Series IIA example is completely numbers matching, with a freshly rebuilt 2.25 liter gas engine, a fresh new interior, and the factory 4-speed manual gearbox. While the body was off the chassis, every painted surface was meticulously refinished, making this example just about as close as you can get today to purchasing a brand new Landy. See for yourself why a well-restored Land Rover is still considered one of the most capable off-road vehicles in the world, and an iconic collectible the world over.
