Hi Doug,
I bought it near Douglas City, which is about 1 hour west of Redding.
The body is actually quite a bit worse than what shows in the photos. Minimal rust, but lots of dents. Mechanically it's in great shape.
I was suprised to find that this thing has a 4 wheel independent suspension. The springs are a rubber system called Flexitor. The rear end is kind of like a Jaguar, but the brakes are at the wheels.
Apparently, this was quite a decent 4x4 but died during the merge between BMC and Rover Group - The Land Rover won.
