1962 Land Rover Series IIA 109 5 Door Station Wagon

A remarkably original example of the iconic, and much beloved inside headlight Series IIA, whose engine sings like a sewing machine, and transmission shifting like a Porsche – well, maybe not quite, but this wonderfully patinated 109 is fully sorted mechanically, and is the epitome of shabby chic.

1962 Land Rover Series IIA 109 5 door station wagon, S/N 26401159A, Bronze Green with grey “elephant hide” upholstery, and white tropical roof, 2.25 litre in-line 4 cylinder petrol engine, 4 speed manual transmission with Fairey overdrive, 4-wheel drive of course, Fairey capstan winch.

Completed at the Land Rover factory in Solihull April 13, 1962, exported to the USA and sold new via Lahore Auto to USAF Major R. A. Gorder at the Dyess Air Force Base in Abilene, Texas, Major Gorder would go on to own the 109 for the next 37 years until selling to just the second owner in 1999, who would go on to commission a thorough mechanical sorting, and who would own the 109 until 2014, complete with British Motor Industry Heritage Trust certificate, original owner’s manual, and original tool roll, with just just four owners and 53,000 miles from new.

Copley Motorcars was established by Stu Carpenter in 1995. Working for other luxury and sportscar dealers in Boston since 1986, Stu has gained a longterm-experience in offering exceptional products at a fair price making the acquisition of a classic and luxury car as easy and as enjoyable as possible. The team at Copley Motorcars has a particular affinity for vintage Mercedes Benz, Ferrari and Land Rover Defender but also other blue chips such as 289 Cobra, BMW Z8 and Porsche 959. Since the market for these cars is a worldwide one, Copley Motorcars ships worldwide and can easily assist with the logistical arrangements. December 2019 marked Copley’s 24th year of buying and selling sports and classics. Their showroom is located in the center of Needham, about 15 miles west of the City of Boston. Copley has an interesting, some would say eclectic, mix of classic cars always on offer and find something to love about each and every one. And because Copley Motorcars is a smallish “boutique” type dealer, their classic cars don’t necessarily run out the door. A new arrival could be there for a day, a week or even six months. That said, all of their classics are different one to the next and are being looked at throughout the USA and the world. If you see a car you like and want to buy it, please contact copleycars@gmail.com. If you see a car and want to think about it, terrific too. But please, please, please assume that someone else is looking at the very same classic you are interested in so, if it gets sold, they do their very best to find another for you.
