Land Rover Defender 1983
General description :
Gateway Classic Cars of Dallas is pleased to present this outfitted 1983 Land Rover 110 Wagon for your consideration. Very few vehicles are as notable as the Land Rover Series and Defenders. With 67 years of uninterrupted production, the Series and Defenders enjoyed world-wide sales and many admiring fans. With owners ranging from the Queen of England, to the average potato farmer, the Series and Defenders were classless and looked good in both the city and on a safari. It is argued that they are the first and only car recognized by remote third world populations, a true testament to its durability and longevity. 1983 was the first year for the longer 110 model. The long wheelbase 110 wagons are loved for their space and utility benefits over the shorter 90 chassis. This truck is in very solid shape and has all the right outfitting. There is tons of patina, but the truck has probably seen tons of unique places and is full of stories. The truck features a number of diamond plated panels, as well as 16†steel wheels with large tires, steel bumpers, sand shovel, off-road jack, Safari roof rack, 2000 lbs winch, hood mounted spare, auxiliary lights, and a trailer hitch. The safari tan paint is generally nice and contrasts nicely with the white removeable top. The interior features a basic, functional dashboard as well as clean, black vinyl seats. The windows slide, and the floors are hose friendly. It can’t get any more functional than this. This 1983 production model features an eight-cylinder engine requiring unleaded fuel. It’s mated to a 5-speed manual transmission and has low range 4x4. While not the quickest truck on the road, the short gearing moves it along well and nothing will stop this off road.

About Land Rover
The rugged tale of Land Rover, born from the spirit of exploration and inspired by the legendary Jeep. Let's embark on a journey through the history of Land Rover, tracing its evolution and the iconic models that have conquered both off-road terrain and urban landscapes.Act 1: The Birth of Land Rover (1948)
In the aftermath of World War II, Rover saw the need for a versatile, go-anywhere vehicle that could handle the demands of post-war life. Drawing inspiration from the Jeep, Maurice Wilks, Rover's chief designer, and his brother Spencer, Rover's managing director, conceptualized the first Land Rover. Launched in 1948 at the Amsterdam Motor Show, the Series I Land Rover was an instant hit, boasting simplicity, durability, and unparalleled off-road capabilities.
Act 2: Series Land Rovers (1950s-1970s)
The Series Land Rovers became the backbone of Land Rover's lineup. The Series II in 1958 and Series III in 1971 refined the design and introduced more creature comforts, while preserving the brand's commitment to off-road prowess. These models were workhorses on farms, military deployments, and adventurous expeditions.
Act 3: Range Rover (1970)
In 1970, Land Rover expanded its horizons with the introduction of the Range Rover. Combining luxury with off-road capabilities, the Range Rover defined a new segment of high-end, go-anywhere vehicles. Its success marked the beginning of Land Rover's transition from utilitarian workhorses to premium off-road vehicles.
Act 4: Discovery and Defender (1980s-1990s)
The 1989 launch of the Land Rover Discovery marked the brand's foray into family-oriented SUVs, blending off-road prowess with on-road comfort. Meanwhile, the iconic Land Rover Defender, the spiritual successor to the original Series Land Rovers, continued to capture the hearts of enthusiasts with its rugged design and unyielding capabilities.
