In
the last 70 years, Land Rover has been presented in different areas of the
world and has participated in various unforgettable events, with two million
and more produced samples, 70 percent are still in use. After long and intense
quests in the 1970s, one of Land Rover's first copies was found, which was
exhibited at the Amsterdam Automobile Show in 1984, and disappeared in 1950,
and reappeared only in 2016 in Beringen, UK. With the 70th annual Land Rover
celebration, the Land Rover restoration and conservation in Jaguar Land Rover
Classic was restored. The Jaguar Land Rover Classic prototype was one of the
three exhibited cars at the fair, they were not just exposed but so visitors
had the opportunity to transport the 07 model, where it made a number of orders.
According to Jaguar Land Rover Classic director Tim Hannig, this car will always remain part of the history of the automotive industry and will be historically important as HUEY. The prototype labeled 05 had equipment with a portable welding apparatus that characterized the endurance. The prototype 03 that was exhibited at the fair is now part of the rich private collections, and the prototype 07 was first claimed to have disappeared, but in 2016 it was found. The steering wheel was also transferred to the right and was routed many times until 1961, when then ended up in private ownership somewhere in Wales. So for years, Land Rover's launch site was a mystery, but with persistent research it was found on the Welsh terrain where he spent 20 years, and later ended up in the hands of a collector who was not aware of what was in his hands and in a short time canceled the restoration.
Then for a number of years he had abandoned and forgotten in the garden until it was found by experts who recognized all of his qualities and historical values. It must be acknowledged that it was not in good shape, but it is finally in the hands of Jaguar Land Rover Classic experts who have paid all their libbles and care in the Reborn program. The first 48 Land Rovers are different from all the other Series 1 models that came later and differ in that they have a denser body alloy, a galvanized chassis and a retractable back up tub. The patina of its components will be saved as well as the original light-green color.
The first registered pre samples with the OI tag, which received the registration markHUEi66, was given the name Huey in which the main characters are the brothers Maurice and Spencer Wilks. After the Second World War, Labor Ministry in the UK asked car makers to expand to the overseas market, thus fixing the master picture of Britain. On a family farm where Wilks brothers spent their free time, driving through the country roads and beach vacations, used Jeep Willys, who was left behind by the war, and one day, one of the brothers Maurice, in the presence of his older brother, drew his vision of an off-road vehicle on the beach.
A first draft of the new model, which will have the strength and durability of the tractor, and also will be useful for driving on road. So soon the brothers bought another Jeep and built a Rover engine and a small company, and the idea succeeded when a prototype was registered as the Center Steer because of the central steering position. They made several more changes and the Jeep's new mechanics served as the basis for creating a new prototype with an aluminum body, a marble that was abundant thanks to the numerous warplanes that became unnecessary.
In the Rover they collected all the ideas for an inexpensive off-roader that was offered on the market at a price of 450 pounds. After the introduction in 1 month, it was originally planned to produce 50 copies in the first week, but due to the high demand, the production was increased to 100, then to 200, and so in a year Land Rover overwhelmed all other Rover models. In a very short time,Land Rover became very interesting and useful to the police, the military and also for the researchers and adventurers who turned it into one of the best off-road vehicles in the world.
The first generation was labeled 80, which later became known under the name Series 1. The Serie 1, sold more than 200,000 units in 1958, featured the Serie 2, and nine years later with the appearance of the Serie 3, a gearbox with syncrons between the speeds comes in. The lined straps have given way to the spiral in 1984 and then a new short version with a mark of 90, founded a successor who was named Defender and it was produced until early 2016.
