Wow.. I haven't updated this blog in almost three years! In the meantime I've taken ownership of two more Land Rovers (and a new house). One is a 1968 Series IIA 88 Station Wagon, and the other is a 1960 Series II 109" Station Wagon. I will have to update things with photos of both trucks.

The 88 is an ongoing project rig, which is getting a sympathetic partial restoration. The goal is to end up with a very clean daily driver. It is really sound to begin with, which helps. It basically needs lots of cosmetic detail work and some minor metal work. Oh yeah, and a full hydraulic rebuild and new wiring. No problem!

The 109 Wagon has been fully restored. I have wanted one for many years, but I didn't want to restore it myself. I just wanted a turn-key truck I could enjoy. I bought it in Seattle last year after wating a long time for the right example to come along. It runs, drives and looks like brand-new.

In the meantime, my 109 pickup, which I've owned for almost 15 years, continues to be a workhorse earning its keep. Here are some recent photos of the pickup hauling gravel and lumber for a shed I'm building.
