No Affilation, Really Nice Local 1969 LR88 For Sale

Saw this ad last weekend right after it posted. Texted the guy, introduced myself and mentioned my LR 109 and while I'm not in the market for another, I'd like to come see it.

Went this morning. Yowza, it's really, really nice. Did all the work himself. Since the ad has been up he's gotten lots of comments but no serious lookers.
Gets a lot of nay-sayers about the right hand drive. Could be the key reason it hasn't moved yet.

The engine is a 2.5 diesel block, but with gas pistons and the 2.25 head running on gas. It's so dang quiet, and really scoots along.
The overdrive will be a MUST for mine.

And to me, the price is really attractive. He knows about all the usual LR sites and forums including BAT.

Spread the word, this is such a sweet truck.

Check out the Lasalle headliner.

If anyone would like me to take another look and get other info or pictures, I'm on vacation till Oct 7.

PM or reply here.

I have to repeat, this truck is extremely clean. All body panels were painted inside and out.

It has all the capabilities of a slightly tweaked factory version, but in like-new condition.

Can be driven on normal 20-30 mile work commutes in appropriate climates.

The owner knows his stuff.

Tell a friend.

Does it come with the optional Wild Kingdom "Jim Fowler seat" on the front?
