289-Powered 1969 Land Rover 109 Series IIA Pop-Top Camper 5-Speed

The vehicle is a robust 1969 Land Rover, specifically a Series IIA model with extended wheelbase, affectionately known as the "109." Manufactured in the United Kingdom, this right-hand-drive classic hails from an era when Land Rovers were reverently referred to as 'the ones that only work well if you beat them.' Powering this durable companion is a lively 289 cubic inch Ford V8 engine connected to a five-speed manual transmission and rugged dual-range transfer case. But beyond its mechanical strengths, what sets this apart is the Carawagon pop-top camper nestled atop it, transforming it into a mobile haven complete with kitchenette amenities like sink and refrigerator, perfect for exploring off-grid paradises. Having spent its earlier years roaming Africa before being imported to the United States in the early '70s, today this historic icon stands ready for another bout of adventurous spirit on American soil.
