Have a look at this Series 2 total rebuild at $US80,000:

Land Rover Series 2 for sale | Hemmings Motor News (http://www.hemmings.com/classifieds/carsforsale/land_rover/series_2/1279232.html)

Yes, it should have a Station Wagon rear door. Nevertheless it's a top job.

Before any of you say "He's dreamin'" he sold this one for $US160,900.00:

Apparently there is another in progress. Who says you can't get your restoration cost back?

If he had of removed the horrible roof rack, he probably would have got another 10 grand for it :o

The English and Americans seem to love those types of roofracks - just look at those on the Camel vehicles. Not shaped inwards at all above the gutters.

Here's the man's website:

Land Rover should read his "About Land Rovers" page. Might give them a few pointers in designing the Defender replacement.

Lanny Clark recently sold a "Dormobile" for $75k too :eek:

He emailed me to confirm the price :) His restorations are something else.

NOS ash tray..., very classy:cool:

Throws down the gauntlet..."You will not find a nicer restored Series Rover anywhere"....except on aulro where I reckon I've seen at least a dozen just as good.

Ive only spent 3 grand on my rebuild so far, not including labour......pitty it's not going to be worth anywhere near that sort of money:( Would be nice;)
