Factory power steering is rare on a Series III Santana, but that's not the only thing that makes this truck unique. For more, or to spec out your own Series Land Rover, visit www.autologymotors.com
Thank you for the kind words! I love this rig, and even though it has been running around Texas for more than 2 years now, I miss it a lot. Thanks so much for watching.
Beautiful Paul! What a shame you couldn't keep her for yourself... One day, right? I also far prefer the Series III (if given the choice). I've always thought the lights in the fender, design-wise, just looks more complete. I think I prefer the sills intact and the spare on the bonnet, though. Magnificent nonetheless. Congrats!
Thanks for sharing this, Paul - I'm guessing that's brake light switch on the brake, rather than under the bonnet. The ones for the Series 2A are ridiculously unreliable on top of the brake box. Great job on this, and those seats are awesome looking. More importantly, what you said about it being impossible to drive a Series truck and not be smiling really made my day.
@@paulmisencik I am looking at a Series 3 Santana here in the states and it has the square tail lights, how hard is it to switch to the round ones? And all the trim is black too, was that a Santana original to have all black trim instead of galv?
@@joelsanford Not hard at all. Remove the square lamps, get a hole cutter for metal in the correct diameter of the lights you want to install, cut the holes in the correct locations, and wire up the new lights!
Paul may I ask a question, bought the original Series indicator lights, to replace the original Santana, which is the right bulb, please?

Amazing truck, I did not know the series 3 could come with factory power steering, does anyone know what years and models from the series 3 came with it?
Solihull built Series III’s never had it. It was a Spanish development by Santana, and it first appeared around 1972, I believe. There were no years or models for which it was standard. It was always an option, and always a rare one.
@@paulmisencik Thanks for the answer Paul. The more I learn about Land Rovers the more I'm surprised by the improvements Santana developed that Solihull never did, It looks like Santana had more feedback from the users and a greater level of resources and will to improve the Land Rover.
