The Rover company of Britain had to shift their priorities to adjust to the post-war consumer environment. Prior to the War, Rover made luxury cars but in a new era of promised prosperity among austerity, the automaker turned their attention towards bolstering Britain’s burgeoning agricultural industry. The Willys Jeep of USA was the inspiration, and what emerged was the Land Rover Series in 1948. The Series became the Series II, Series III, and Defender over many decades of solid service, not only in Britain, but across the world. Meanwhile, a Spanish automaking outfit called Santana started working closely with Land Rover to build their own versions in Spain. Today, we’ve got one of their creations, a 1976 Land Rover 88 Series III Santana that was reportedly given a full frame-off restoration in 2023. The vehicle’s rebuilt engine has got less than 1,000 miles on it, as has its rebuilt gearbox. Furthermore, this vehicle was imported from Colombia, highlighting the journey that it’s taken halfway across the world to get to Florida where it currently awaits a new owner – which could be you!
This 1976 Land Rover 88 Series III Santana enjoys a new green paint job that was done in 2023 as part of its restoration, replete with a cream canvas top – yes, this is a convertible off-roader. The 16-inch steel wheels are cream colored as well, and wrapped in JK Tyre Jet-Trak tires. There’s also a tow ball, because even though this vehicle is approaching senior citizens status, it’s still unafraid to get its wheels dirty. Just remember that the front locking hubs must be manually locked before venturing into the rough stuff. The interior of this 1976 Land Rover 88 Series III Santana features new tan bucket seats, and a new center console with cup holders. The classic theme is largely preserved, but infotainment has been given a massive boost. From the factory, if you wanted music in your Series III, you had to sing it yourself. Now, there’s a Kenwood head unit and Pioneer speakers to take the load off your vocal chords.
Sporting a 2.25 (2,286cc)-liter 4-cylinder engine, this 1976 Land Rover 88 Series III Santana isn’t a highway stormer but will plough through any terrain slowly but surely. There’s a 4-speed manual gearbox and a dual-range transfer case to help you get by. The vehicle also has all new power-assisted drum brakes, we’re told.

The Range Rover is a luxury SUV from British off-roader maker Land Rover, and it was introduced in 1970 to show the world what Land Rover could do in the luxury space. Land Rover is best known for the iconic but spartan Series and Defender, and they wanted to broaden their target markets. The Range Rover spawned a few sub-derivatives as well, such as the Range Rover Sport and Range Rover Velar, but the full-fat Range Rover remains supreme. Today, we’ve got a current-generation 2023 Land Rover Range Rover SE P400 for sale from Ford Lauderdale, Florida, with just 23,299 miles reported to its name. You really should experience this all-stock car to see what luxury SUV motoring is all about, and it makes a fine family hauler too, with its spacious cabin, roomy trunk, and plethora of tech toys.
If you want a sturdy and capable off-roader for your weekend sojourns, it’s hard to bash a classic Land Rover Defender. With a rich history dating back to 1948, the Land Rover Defender (the old one, since there’s a new one now) is well regarded for its off-road abilities and simplistic demeanor. Yes, you might hear some Land Rover jokes, mostly centering around oil leakages, but in reality, these are the hallmarks of poorly maintained and ill-used examples. Choose a well-cared for Defender, such as this Maine-based 1992 Land Rover Defender 110 and you’ll enjoy plenty of happy journeys in it. This vehicle has undergone a frame-off repaint, received plenty of new parts, and even has a more modern and punchy engine under the hood. We’re also informed that all servicing is up to date.
In a nutshell, the Land Rover Defender TRĕK is designed for serious off-road enthusiasts. The exterior itself exudes off-roading traits to the point that it feels wrong to just drive it around the city. From its roots of carrying personnel at war times, the Land Rover Defender nameplate has evolved to become a modern-day adventurer's best friend. And now this staggering example of the 2022 Land Rover Defender 110 S TRĕK Edition can be your off-roading companion. Inspired by the Trek competition that has roots back to the original Camel Trophy competition, this trailblazer features additional equipment that aids you in your escapade. It is currently garaged in Fernandina Beach, Florida. Combining a luxurious cabin with the promise of all-terrain abilities, this Defender will make your next off-roading experience a hassle-free one.
The world of off roading is filled with machines that are ready to take its custodians the extra mile into the greater unknown. Turn back the clock on the world of off roading and there are a few machines that have helped define venturing off the beaten path. Its good news today as we have one of those off road powerhouses that help define what off roading is today and it takes shape with this 1958 Jeep CJ-3B. This factory clean example is a low mileage survivor and is a looker that is still more than capable of taking you further into the great unknown.
Chevy’s C/K Series debuted in 1960 and is widely regarded as one of the most influential in pickup truck circles. The entry-level was the C10/K10 variant, which denoted a half-ton truck. If you’re wondering why there are C-trucks and K-trucks, let us enlighten you. C trucks are rear-wheel drive, while K trucks have four-wheel drive. This is the key difference between the two. So, today’s 1984 Chevrolet K10 is a four-wheel drive variant from the third generation of Chevy C/K series trucks, and a half-ton truck at that. However, this North Carolina-based machine is much more than that, having received some refreshments and upgrades. Read on to discover more, and you might find plenty of reasons to sign on the dotted line and take this truck home.
Ford’s popular F-Series that is available today and in the fourteenth generation, was born in 1948. It was aimed at mobilizing American small businessholders, farmers and those engaged in trade. For the first generation, the range started with the F-1 which was a half-ton pickup truck. It had a 6.5-foot cargo bed, and sat at just 189 inches long; shorter than many full-size luxury cars of today. Over time, the F-1 has become a cherished classic and a symbol of American freedom – because it allowed you to take your family to market, with your goods for sale in the truck bed. This particular 1950 Ford F-1 Custom Build is a little different, as it’s a restomod with a host of upgrades. Residing in California and having just 13,367 miles since its rebuild, this truck is ideal for someone who wants classic style tastefully combined with modern features and performance.
