Product Description
Product Description
Early Land Rovers are now cult collectables amongst classic car, military transport, four-wheel drive and farm vehicle enthusiasts: thousands of restorations are under way, each of which needs a definitive illustrated guide to authentic originality and specification. In this, the 20th volume in the acclaimed "Original" series, renowned Land Rover historian James Taylor tackles the bewildering range of variants and permutations of the Series One Land Rover, and the frequently tricky issue of original factory specification and equipment.

Format:Hardcover
Long out of print and almost as expensive secondhand as a Series One, its a pleasure to be able to get hold of this legendary volume. If your one of the hardy few to have a Series One then you wont need any encouragement from me to buy this.
James Taylor examines all the versions from 80" to 109" and provides the authorative guide to everything from petrol tank colour to steering box materials so if you have an interest in autheticity or simply Land Rover heritage then this is a must buy. Dont expect lists of part numbers and production runs, the information is presented as a very readable description format and is well illustrated. There are also sections on special equipment and the Brockhouse Trailer.
On the downside you may find out that your 'original' Series One isnt quite as original as you thought - mine is clearly a mongrel!

This book is one of if not very probably the definitive book on Series one Land-Rovers.
Extensive detail on year on year model changes, as well as fabulous photography means it is a good coffee table book for any classic car enthusiast and not just Landy fans.
