1962 Land Rover 109 in October 2009 Orvis Catalog

[4xdog]

Did anyone else notice this neat offering in the Orvis catalog from mid-October 2009?

That isn't a dormobile conversion. It's a nice looking rig, they're available at $10,000-$20,000 on Ebay.

The only way that setup is worth $65k is if those bags in front somehow hold about 40 Orvis Bamboo fly rods.

It was worth $65k to someone. It sold.

Ah now Jim, I know where you went wrong. You galvanized your truck when you should have gold plated that chassis.

I'm pretty sure Martin Walters did some Dormie interiors only, without the signature Dormie top.
Can't imagine paying $65k for it, regardless.

Funny, someone brought that along on our fly fishing trip this weekend.

Hahaha. That made me laugh. Good luck with the sale Jim.

Ha. I love it. I literally just finished reading the build up thread. I recently sold my fj55 and have had severe 109 lust and that is noting but fuel for the fire.

Mine too!

Pre-broken-in as well. :victory:

a double tropical roof

guess just having a light colored roof counts as 1 tropical roof and then the actual tropical roof counts as double points.

Then do I have something for you...:ylsmoke:

Looks like dormi seats to me. Doesn't need the roof to be a dormi.

That's a bit expensive for one of Lanny's restorations but if you need to buy the truck and have it restored by one the best in the business, then you could easily spend $65k. Lanny does excellent work. ECR charged about the same for their resto mods as well.

I'd take that over any 110 any day...
