The transmission and differential fluids were replaced at the same time, as well as new brakes in all four corners. Exterior. The Grasmere Green paint presents beautifully under an Alaskan White roof. Body panels are about as straight as they get for an old Land Rover, and the truck is free of dents and scratches. The galvanized trim is exposed, and common rust areas such as the bulkhead, floors, crossmembers, and doors are all dry and straight. Interior. The interior is finished in a black vinyl. The truck is currently configured to seat ten, including the rear-opposed facing jump seats. Gauges and lights are functional. Floors are clean and rust-free; the interior was painted along with the exterior and presents nicely. Doors shut firm and latches engage as they should. Truck has a safari roof which helps channel air into the cabin with the ceiling-mounted vents. And that windshield – it’s the world’s best picture frame.
