AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

HIGHLIGHTS:

• Complete 'body-off' restoration performed, including fully dismantled chassis with epoxy coating
• Powerful 455 ci Big Block V8 engine (revised about 1,500 km ago)
• TH400 automatic transmission and Eaton limited-slip differential with 3.08 gearing
• Modern rack and pinion steering and Koni shock absorbers
• Finished in Land Rover dark green with a high-quality clear coat

HISTORY/OVERVIEW:

This vehicle has undergone a thorough body-off restoration, where the car was fully dismantled and nearly all mechanical and cosmetic components were addressed. The vehicle combines a classic look with technical upgrades that provide a more modern driving experience, such as a rack and pinion steering and an upgraded suspension. After the restoration, the car has been handled with care and the revised V8 engine has logged only about 1,500 km.

BODYWORK/PAINT:

The bodywork was fully stripped, sandblasted, and placed in an epoxy primer during the restoration to prevent rust. About 5 years ago, the car was painted in a stylish dark green Land Rover color with a multi-layer clear coat, which is in very good condition. The underside, wheel wells, and cargo area are protected with a gray body coating. The door seals and window visors have been renewed.

INTERIOR:

The interior is in neat and well-functioning condition. The front seats show some light cracking; however, the seller provides new, original GM upholstery to restore this. Both the battery and the fuel tank are neatly housed in the trunk.

ENGINE AND TECHNICAL:

The vehicle is powered by a 455 ci Big Block V8 engine that was fully rebuilt about 1,500 km ago, including a rebuilt crankshaft, connecting rods, pistons, and camshaft. The powerful engine is paired with a TH400 automatic transmission and an Eaton differential (3.08 gearing). The exhaust system is welded and equipped with Turbo Mufflers for a deep V8 sound. The chassis and suspension feature new Koni shock absorbers, as well as new body- and underbody rubbers. At the front, there are disc brakes with Pontiac Trans Am calipers; at the rear, there are drum brakes with good shoes. Thanks to the installed rack and pinion steering, the vehicle has a modern and precise steering feel.

The vehicle can be viewed and picked up. Bids exclude transport and export unless otherwise stated. Arranging transport, title transfer, and any export documents/COC costs are the responsibility of the buyer.

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
