Coil sprung 88" series 2
« on: April 24, 2017, 05:18:54 pm »
Going to look at a 1966 2a coiled series 2 on wednesday.
Taxed/tested(tax free obviously)
Owners had it 14 years.
2.25 petrol
1985 chassis

Not my cup of tea but I'm going to see it. I do have a habit of falling in love with shite at the first sight

Already have three that get minimal use.

If I'm not interested is anyone?
It's in Durham.

Any good to anyone on here?

As far as I know that 3.5v8 1960 galvy chassis S2 is still available in tewkesbury.
All the right bits, but not necessarily in the right order.

Is the owners name Brian Witherspoon as I have done some lanes with NERO with a vehicle of that description and he was that area.
Was a very tidy vehicle and mods where done before the points system so all legit.

Don't know Doug, got there today to be told it was sold.

Wasted journey but might have been worth it.

It was in Willington beside Crook if your mate was from that area?

Avenger 4x4 in Peterborough has one for sale (i work next door to them)  fully inspected by the DVLA, Marshland galvanised coil sprung chassis, £1000's spent on rebuilding the 3.5 V8 with webber carb, RR axles, loads of paperwork of all the wiring the guys done, part numbers for everything the P.O fitted should the need for replacement need to be found, receipts etc etc only leaks is a slight one from the gearbox, which also has overdrive, quite a few odd little features like the wipers are Freelander rear wiper units, adjustable rear tow hitch and fitted with reversing sensors etc, he's after £4000 for it.












 

 








Can I combine 24 volts, 9.00's and an Tdi!!!!
