In 1948, a British off-road legend was born. The Rover Company released their Land Rover Series 1, and it was the world’s first production four-wheel drive car with doors and a hardtop roof. Modeled on the Willys Jeep CJ (which didn’t have doors or a hard roof at the time), the Series I became the Series II, Series III, and finally, the classic Defender that we know and love. Indeed, it’s not hard to see the family resemblance, isn’t it? This particular 1972 Land Rover Series III is a bit special because it’s a firetruck-style conversion by Carmichael and Sons of Worcester, United Kingdom. With its 2.3-liter naturally aspirated 4-cylinder engine, 4-speed manual gearbox and sub-52,000 mile odometer reading, this machine is currently up for grabs in Wilmington, North Carolina.
Painted in Fire Red, this 1972 Land Rover Series III firetruck conversion comes with a Godiva fire pump, dual roof beacons, a roof-mounted extension ladder and even a roof-mounted hose reel and work light! Yes, it’s a firefighter, or firefighting aficianado’s dream come true. The vehicle rocks red-painted steel wheels with all-terrain utility tires, fire extinguishers and period accessories, and even front-mounted pump controls and gauges. Isn’t it awesome? In fact, it’s bringing out the child in many members of our team as we speak! The black interior of this 1972 Land Rover Series III is as purposeful as they come, with just the bare necessities for the vehicle’s purpose as an emergency responder. Its right-hand drive and rocks three abreast seating upholstered in black vinyl. Much of the space behind the seats is taken up by the fire fighting equipment, after all.
This 1972 Land Rover Series III has a 2.3-liter 4-cylinder engine to move it around. The naturally aspirated unit uses a Zenith 36IV single downdraft carburetor. It drives all four wheels through a 4-speed manual transmission. There’s also a 12-volt electrical system and a two-speed transfer case, offering high and low ranges. Yes, we’ll be honest, this machine might not be as speedy as the latest fire engines, but it’ll get there in a suitably timely manner.

If one were to ask to name some of the greatest go-anywhere vehicles in the world, Land Rovers are sure to be on the top of the list. With a history spanning over seven decades, Land Rover was responsible for many landmarks in the world, such as the first mass-produced civilian four-wheel drive car and the first four- or five-door 4WD off-road station wagon. Out of the three main Series models that were produced, our subject vehicle falls under a subcategory of the second series: the Series IIIA. It was renowned by many for being the most hardy Series model constructed. This nostalgic 1975 Land Rover Series IIIA 88 only has 15,000 miles on its clock, and the 88 denotes its wheelbase in inches. The body tags confirm that this particular example was manufactured in Spain, produced under license by Santana Motor, and is now available for purchase in immaculate condition.

The sky is not the limit when going about restomodding a classic car, and while that does sound like an appealing statement, it is also scary. There are many ways you could go about turning a classic that has weathered years of existence into something that can truly take away from what it is, into something that is unrecognisable. There is a rare occasion that a restomod is done right, and we have one of those instances taking shape with this 1956 Ford F-100 Restomod.
This gray 1986 Jeep CJ-7 comes from the very last year of Jeep CJ production, a legacy that began in 1944. Willys-Overland knew that with World War II coming to a conclusion, their military Jeep sales would dry up significantly. So, they turned it into a tough and capable civilian off-roader, and the rest, as they say, is history. Produced through several iterations, the CJ finally bowed out in 1986, giving way to a nameplate that we all know and love; Wrangler. So, this 56,081-mile machine from Mount Gilead, Ohio is a piece of history and also includes a removable hardtop with the sale. Yes, one of the CJ and Wrangler’s party pieces is a removable hardtop that can be replaced with a variety of options, including full soft tops, bikini tops, or simply left topless. This machine comes with the 4.2-liter AMC straight six under the hood, paired with a 4-speed manual box and of course, four-wheel drive!
Today’s 1970 Volkswagen Type 2 Riviera Camper is the sort of simple yet dependable vehicle that you can easily take on a road trip without a second thought. It’s built on the famous Volkswagen Type 2 Microbus or Kombi platform, if its friendly green and white bodywork wasn’t enough of a calling card for its lineage. With an airy tan interior, a Riviera pop-top, rear bench-style seating and even the “Rock-N-Roll” bed option, this is definitely a digital detox machine at its finest. Plus, with the purr of its little air-cooled flat four in the background, this 34,431-mile machine from Winter Springs is not only reliable, but easy to maintain.
