Mike Sandone’s North America Overland skunkworks has solved the riddle to eliminating the crudeness of our beloved 60+ year old Series trucks, yet retaining all of the wonderful aesthetic charm that makes us so smitten in the first place. And while we’ve all heard the term “nut and bolt restoration,” that is exactly the NAO process – every nut, bolt, trim piece, widget, and component is either new or renewed. And along the way, NAO seamlessly updates the systems that can aggravate us in these six decades old trucks.

Our Marine Blue IIA 109 soft top shown here was completed in the NAO workshops in 2023, has just 350 test miles since completion, and is fitted with its totally rebuilt 2.25 litre gas engine, 5 speed manual transmission, seating for 8, and a fully removable canvas top with windows and roll-up sides. Among the restoration highlights are: galvanized chassis and related trim bits, electronic fuel injection, Defender 5 speed manual transmission, Defender heated front seats, 6 rear side facing seats with retractable seat belts, disc brakes, stainless steel exhaust system, aluminum radiator, stainless steel gas tank, and much, much, much more. We’re happy to email the build sheet that recaps in detail the entire restoration. And the 109 the ideal aesthetic with its coveted inside headlight configuration, and proper “breakfast” grille.

Nut and bolt restored, galvanized chassis, updated systems, 8 passenger seating, and charm galore, our Marine Blue IIA 109 soft top is simply spectacular in all respects and on offer now in our suburban Boston showroom.
