200TDi Turbo Diesel | 4-Speed Manual | Richards SIII Galvanized Chassis | Documented Complete Restoration | New Arrival

This 1963 Land Rover Series IIA 109 Long Wheelbase Pickup has undergone a comprehensive restoration, combining classic British utility styling with carefully selected mechanical upgrades. The truck retains its original bulkhead, seat box, doors, windshield frame, and galvanized cappings. Finished in this gorgeous Tartan Blue, the body is complemented by Limestone powder-coated wheels, a new Exmoor canvas top, a Pangolin 4×4 galvanized front bumper, Warn 8274 winch, and an oiled cypress wood bed. The restoration also included a Richards galvanized chassis and refinished galvanized components throughout.

Power comes from a Land Rover Defender 200TDi turbo diesel, sourced from a 64,000-mile vehicle and refreshed with a new timing belt, water pump, rear main seal, Garret Turbo, and clutch prior to installation. A rebuilt 4-speed manual transmission with a high-ratio transfer case delivers power through heavy-duty 24-spline Salisbury axles. Additional upgrades include Toyota FJ60 power steering, Rovers North parabolic leaf springs, Old Man Emu shocks, a Borgeson collapsible steering column, and five Michelin ZXL tires.

Inside, custom Exmoor seating, a Tuffy locking center console, Kodiak heater, and a unique Russian Tupolev bomber clock complement the purposeful cabin. A replacement wiring harness with factory-style cloth wrapping preserves the vintage presentation. This Series IIA 109 offers an excellent combination of traditional Land Rover character, thoughtful craftsmanship, and improved drivability.
