Thread: immaculate Series III 109" Hardtop on carsales

Looks nice, but I too would not pay that much for it.

Also, unless I am mistaken there is no way a 1979 Landrover would have had an original five bearing motor. As far as I know, only five door wagons here had them, and only a few years after this one! Which makes you wonder about the other "facts".

I thought the five bearing came out in 78. Mine was the same configuration but diesel and it was a 78 3 bearing. I thought mine was one of the last of the three bearings. Hadn't heard that they were only in the wagons. Mine was in very simiar condition to this one, amost identical and i think i paid $4800 many years ago.

I didn't see any rear seats.

You're right Shonky. Very nice, but $8K is a lot of dosh for a S3.

Never been off road!! Is that muddy water stains off a wet dirt road on the top of the radiator, or does the radiator leak rusty water. As JD says the 5 bearing crank motor was in imported S/W of 80's vintage, engine block is Maroon/dark Red in colour, looks well kept though, I had a SWB same model and and sold it for $3500, Regards Frank.

Is that not where the paint has rubbed off, showing the metal underneath?
