Hey all,
This is my first time to post, and actually joined this group to post. I've been looking for an older Land Rover for a while now and have recently come across a 1968 Series IIa Station Wagon. The owner tells me that the original owner bought it new in '68 and drove it till 1974, when he died and it has sat parked under a shed ever since. The engine's stopped, there is some rust around the door frames and some surface rust on the frame, and basically it looks like it's been sitting there for forty years. He's asking $2,500 for it. So my question is, is it worth it? I don't know much at all about Land Rovers this old, what are the chances that the engine would start after some work? Thanks alot
Ryan
