1973 Land Rover Series III

THE LAND ROVER HAS BEEN IN OUR FAMILY SINCE I WAS BORN, 44 YEARS. MY FATHER USED IT ON OUR PROPERTIES AS A FARM VEHICLE, MAINLY TO HAUL FIREWOOD AND WATER AS WELL AS THE FAMILY DYNAMIC IF YOU WILL. WE HAD NUMEROUS AMAZING JOURNEYS. THEY SAY THAT THE PATH AND JOURNEY WE ARE ON IS WHAT COUNTS. HOW ABOUT THE RIG? MY FATHER DROVE AND MAINTAINED HIS SERIES III UNTIL THE DAY HE PASSED ON IN 2009. WE ROUTINELY STARTED IT EVERY OTHER WEEK UNTIL THE KEYS WENT MISSING. THE ROVER HAS BEEN SITTING IN THE GRAINERY ON OUR OLD FARM SINCE. THIS VEHICLE IS PRICELESS IN SO MANY WAYS HOWEVER LETTING IT SIT ANY LONGER IS JUST UNACCEPTABLE. WE WOULD LOVE TO SEE IT RECEIVE THE TLC IT DESERVES AND RETURN TO IT'S RAMBLING WAYS. THE ROVER WAS RUNNING JUST FINE UNTIL WE STOPPED STARTING IT A FEW YEARS BACK. IT IS HOLDING IT'S FLUIDS HOWEVER I AM SURE SEALS ETC. AND FRESH GAS ARE A MUST ALONG WITH CPR TO BRING HER BACK TO LIFE. I WOULD LOVE TO KEEP THE ROVER HOWEVER I WILL BE HAPPY TO SEE IT GO TO SOMEONE WHO CAN GIVE IT THE ATTENTION IT DESERVES. MY FATHER'S STORY ABOUT HIS LOVE FOR THE ROVER WAS PUBLISHED IN ROVER'S NORTH MAGAZINE JUST BEFORE HIS PASSING. I WILL ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS THAT I CAN. THANKS FOR CHECKING OUT OUR AUCTION. BUYER PAYS SHIPPING/INSURANCE. PLEASE EMAIL WITH QUESTIONS. HAVE A GREAT DAY. E
