[For Sale] Series 2a 88” Pickup

Ciao,

So the time has come to sell my Series 2a. I have owned it for the last 11 years. It was my first car at 17, brought as a wreck and slowly done up over the years. For the past 5 years it’s been in the barn looking ever more sorry for it self. As I no longer have time to continue with it, I would rather someone else got to enjoy it.

 

Built in 1962, served in the military for 10 years before being registered in 1972, so it holds its tax exempt status.

 

It doesn’t currently have an MOT, but with the new MOT rules, it is exempt.

Its in good condition for its age. It needs a few patches welding on the chassis, maybe a hub seal, adjustment to the steering and new fuel tank.

 

There is a huge list of work done, but I will list what I can remember;

 

Reconditioned engine fitted about 1000 miles ago.

Brakes, master cylinder and all lines replaced.

Completely re-wired (following original wiring diagram)

New footwells and floors.

Parabolic suspension and gas shock absorbers

New seats

Rear load area cover

Steering swivels replaces

All wheel bearings replaced

Replacement military doors

Swing away wheel carrier

Steering Box replaced

Paperwork for nearly everything.

 

Bulkhead is in fantastic condition

Rear crossmember is also fantastic

Front chassis legs and cross member replaced about 500 miles ago.

 

Rest of the chassis is standard for this sort of age. I counted 3 or 4 patches that need doing.

 

Drop me a message for any more info. Looking for £4000

 

The picture is from last summer. There is also a winch included that’s not fitted in the picture.

 

Viewing can be arranged. Test drive welcome but you will need to bring a battery and some fuel...

Shame you have to sell that....another ten years you'll be looking for it again.

Good luck, £3500 seems a fair price.

Nice, but honest opinion here. Checker plate and wheels spoil what would be a good buy for someone
