So road tripped it down to Taupo and Palmy on Labour weekend with the Mrs.

Her Uncle has given us a f-load of stuff, heaps of it car bits.

Basically we were only interested in the Holden premier, but had been told about a SWB Landie down there somewhere, we were kinda disheartened when we couldn't see it in the Barn, till we relised it was completely in pieces in a container.

So the story with the Landie is it is a Series 3, short wheel base (88")

Apparently it has range rover drivetrain, though it may be a shortened range rover chassis and running the coils instead of leaves, guess I will find out soon!

Included in the spares is both a hardtop and softop set up.

Got some 14 or 15x7or8" wheels, the white mag type ones, pic below.

It is completely in parts, like to the last bolt.

The mrs uncle had it, restored it, but then found the rust proof paint he used wasn't rust proof, so stripped it, repainted and then ended up leaving NZ before putting it back together.

This is the V8 thats sitting there, anyone know if its a GM or rover one by looking at that?

Landie Wheels

Wheels again, not sure what size they are exactly 14" or 15"

Hardtop roof to the right, there is the seat 'box' there too, pretty sure those seats are from the Holden.
