Subject:Wish to trade Land Rover for Syncro

My Rover is a 1973 SerIII Green 88 inch. I have owned it for 18 years. The truck was

    prepared for safari work. I will list a few things I have added to the unit. 1. Custom built

    aluminium roof rack with ladder and solid deck 2. Custom-built heavy front bumper with

    8000lb warn 8274 winch. 3. 3 inch custom-built stainless steel snorkel with top mounted

    air filtration system. 4. Bike rack on rear of truck that pivots with rear door and holds two

    bikes. Etc. About 65k miles ago I did a frame off restoration that also included every

    mechanical assembly and sub assembly, Engine, only keep the old block, everything

    else was new, bored 30 over, transmission was sent to Rovers North and completely

    rebuilt, both axle's were renewed with all new parts every other part under the car was

    replaced including the brake lines. Total parts alone were well over 20,000 not including

    my labour.

    Many extra components like air pump, air horn, air open hood, hella 4000 lights,

    heated front windows, new cab components, Murphy auto shut off gage pack, volt and

    amp high resolution gages in dash, just to much to list for now. I performed all work and I

    am an accomplished mechanic. All parts came from rover north. I do have 98% of the

    invoices from Rover North. Very min. off road use (I never got around to it). The truck has

 had almost no use in the past 5 years.
