New From VA

[rovers3]

Hi there, new to the site.
I do not have a US/ Canadian made MV, but i have a British made one.
A 1974 Series III Land Rover (Former FFR) that was enlisted in the Norwegian Military for most of its life. It was released in 2001 and then Imported the the US, it ended up in PA. Then it must have sat around for some time. bought by a guy in MD then shortly there after bought by me. It is now going through a nice upgrade/ restoration. I still have all the original release papers from the Military (all in Norwegian) and the original import documentation into the US.
Some pics below.

Hey thanks everyone. Right now it is in many pieces. I am getting the frame ready for some minor modifications and then paint. I can say it will be getting a Diesel from the Gs engine it has not. Looks like a GM diesel to. Other then that it is getting a beefed up drivetrain as the Land Rover drivetrain will not handle the GM Diesel V8.
This is a great forums and i am sure glad i found it.
