1977 Land Rover Series

Automobiles

The One Ton 109-inch Land Rover, a variant built from late 1968, ended production in 1977. It was an uncommon type: only 170 IIA and 238 Series III were built for the home market, with a Series IIB forward-control driveline, ENV or Salisbury axles and 900x16 tyres, and many served utility companies and recovery firms. Meanwhile the Series III carried on much as before, and in the following year, 1978, Land Rover Limited was set up as a separate subsidiary.
