With reference to my thread "Re: V8 finally started after 3 years of sitting, over the moon"

Looking to sell my beloved Land Rover 109 Stage 1 V8. 1982. Known as "Kate the V8".
£10,000
Owned for the past 12 years but not getting the opportunity to use as often as l would like now. Good clean and straight. One small dent in the front wing where l caught a branch.
MOT till October 2020
Last year l replaced the gear box as the original was jumping out of low range. New box is excellent (RTV trial last year was fine)
Fairey Over drive.
Engine was replaced 11 years ago for another 3.5 V8. Been brilliant ever since. Plenty of power and sounds great. No smoke. Regular oil changes.
Chassis is good conditon, been wax oiled a few times and would benefit being done again.
Modular steel wheels with MT tyres.
Drivers and passengers foot wells replaced when doing the gear box.
Replaced rear spring outriggers, rear cross member has been patched where it joins the chassis rail.
Replaced the fuel tank.
Full length canvas roof- with military roll bar mounted to bulk head. Canvas is has a couple of small holes and a tear on the back flap.

2 x bench seats with cushions in rear.
Narrow width spare wheel

Spares:
LT95 gear box (low range needs looking at) clutch plate.
Steering relay (new)
Southdown stainless steel snorkel (new & never fitted)
1 steel modular rim, freshly painted
Box of assorted parts, nothing too special in there. Spare canvas, requires patching and straps reattach. New 5ltr tin of Fabseal. 5ltrs engine oil. Waxoil and kit. Original front seat.

Due to change of circumstances l have to part company with the landy. I've not got the time to use or keep up with the jobs on it.
Everything listed below is still included apart from the original front seats that were sold.
New re-corded radiator.
MOT till 23 May 2023
High & low range work fine and diff lock engages.

Items from the MOT:
Front Headlamp lens slightly defective both sides
Offside Front Steering linkage ball joint ball joint dust cover damaged or deteriorated, but preventing the ingress of dirt drop arm
advisories :
Rear Registration plate deteriorated but not likely to be misread
Rear exhaust corroded badly - rear section requires replacing as end section has rusted through.
Central Fuel Pipe/s corroded
Tyre slightly damaged/cracking or perishing all x 4 cracked

Will require 2 new door tops as they have rusted through on the bolts and the bottom of the door corners will require looking at as they are rusty but still work fine. The glazed door tops will be included so if you can get some replacement frames the glass can be swapped over. Door top runners were replaced with the plastic Series 2 club runners.
Condition of the canvas roof has deteriorated over the past couple of years.
Only 49 registered on the UK roads and 150 SORN

£9000. Located West Midlands
