Show us your S1.

Thoughts please........... I've been offered this but need convincing :)

1951 rust free, engine / gearbox been rebuilt, all matching numbers. No idea what it might be worth.

Hi Gerry,

Apart from that front bumper which is totally not original, this looks to be a very nice '51 lights through the full grill. Wish I'd kept mine. I would be putting it back to full soft top which it most probably would have been. If the chassis & bulkhead is as good as the pictures suggest I would definitely go for it.

Just realised it has the wrong front wings, as side lights should be on the bulkhead, & no lights at all on the front wings. So not worth much!, but still worth a acquiring.

Looks good. Around 9k I think without knowing too much about it.

Late '51 models (like mine) had the side lights moved to the guards, so it's not incorrect.

Does anyone know what year my Land Rover is from this photo??

Looks like it could be a 48 , 49 or 50 L/R 80" with the tractor lights behind the grill , Bit hard to see with the small photo but it looks like some one has cut the grill bars in front of the lights . Need the chassis no to identify the year. It may have a date stamp on top radiator tank or wheel rim centres.

Probably 1950. No fish plate chassis.(If you open the link you get a bigger picture).
