The Land Rover Series III Is Equipped For Adventure
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 1 сен 2014
- This story comes in partnership with Belstaff as we hit the dunes in a Land Rover Series III.
As a car photographer who shoots for many of the big auction houses, Mr. Pawel Litwinski is no stranger to the world of vintage Bugattis, Ferraris, and Porsches-cars defined by their elegant lines and frightening top speeds. On any given day, Pav can be found shooting anything from a 1932 Daimler Double-Six in one corner of the United States to a Jaguar D-Type on the opposite side of the continent. If he’s at home in California, however, odds are you’ll find Pav in the seat of a ride defined by its simplicity: his 1973 Land Rover Series III.
Growing up in Coney Island, New York, Pav saw plenty of sports cars on the city streets but what he really wanted was a vehicle that would go over everything. Oh, and he had one other demand: it had to have a tire on the hood. After a couple decades of waiting and dreaming, Pav now has his Land Rover and the two are inseparable, so much so that even when he found himself in financial straits a few years ago-during which time he even had to sell his primary camera and his Subaru STi-Pav refused to part with his beloved Land Rover.
Nowadays, if Pav isn’t throwing a ladder into the back of the Land Rover and grabbing his gear while rushing to a photo shoot, he’s bouncing over the dunes at Pismo Beach on the Central California coast. But wherever he goes, be assured that on his face is the biggest smile you’ve ever seen.

"I've always wanted to have an old truck with a tire on the hood."
I like this guy!
Totally built for adventure! Nothing quite like driving a series. An experience that brings a smile to your face every time.
If your car doesn’t make you smile, it’s just an appliance.
Everytime I need some some inspiration or to bring my mood up, I just watch this video again. I love LR Series but seen Pawel been so humbly happy talking about his truck and showing his gratitude for it, really makes me happy.
This is not just a car, it is an icon. A part of history. I love it.
Nice history.
You said it bro...
Still the best 4 x 4 x far

"How's the roll-over protection?"
"excellent, just don't roll it over. You'll be fine"
[chuckle] They are a bit harder to tip over than you think. I can remember being in one with my grand dad when I was about 4 or 5, and I was TERRIFIED, because I was sure it was about to tip over, but the old man knew what he was doing... I seem to remember a warning that it was pretty much guaranteed to drive along a 40 degree slope, but not a 45. You could tip them over, but then a lot of passenger sedans of the 60s you could tip over at least that easily as well... You go find an original late 50s or early 60s VW and see how hard that is to tip over. I'll give you a hint, it's not all that hard....
Eggly Bagelface you can buy roll bars for them. He must like the danger lol.
They look pretty good with roll bars and sports seats. But if you've got a near original 73 series III, dont mess with it. Too many of them have been butchered. I've got an '04 90 I've had for 12 years. Looks pretty damned near the same apart from the front grill recess. I'll never sell it.
If you think you could roll over your are in Moab or you need to learn to drive!
Eggly Bagelface roll over is for wimps that don’t know how to drive off road.
Land Rovers have Soul. This bloke gets it.
Helen O'Halloran he totally does
That was made just 15 miles away from where I'm sitting, in Lode Lane, Solihull.
Absolutely brilliant vehicle.
I was born on Lode Lane, worked at Land Rover and drive a '79 Series 3.......kind of in the blood I think!!
Wow! A topless NADA Series 3 Land Rover 88". The holy grail of Land Rovers. Brilliant.
How to see that it is a NADA??
winkel1979 What??!!
winkel1979 Probably meant NAS Series 3 (North American Series).
Joseph Divar Land Rover themselves denoted these Series 3 Land Rovers for the American and Canadian markets as NADA Land Rovers, NADA standing for North America Dollar Area. As for the Defender which arrived on the American market in 1994, these vehicles where designated NAS 90's and 110's by Land Rover. The NAS meaning North American Specification.
I hope that helps?
Lawrence5987 Thanks, for some reason I only remember them using NAS. Been quite a long time since I've dusted off my Rover material. I printed out ECRs guide Series Rovers 15-years ago and took it to Kinko's to have it bound. I'm sure it's in there, what's it stand for again?
I was thinking of bying a 3series, it is this film that made me get one. A series from ‘81 and i use it every day for the last year. Thank you for this video
I just love his enthusiasm ... he couldn't stop smiling!! :)
Since I was a small kid in the nineteen seventies, reading Nat Geo mags and watching documentaries, the vehicle I always dreamed of and spoke of adventure was the Land Rover Series III. Just an amazing vehicle in all it's forms. thanks for sharing your story.
Dang dude, you got it made. A dream job and a dream truck to go along with it.
I'd look at the truck like "you're not going"; and it stayed.
*music breaks into silence*
*looks back at truck during filming* "it's not going anywhere!"
I too have a 73 Series III 88 and you captured every single feeling I have for my beloved "Warthog". It is a living member of my family and I can't ever image it not being with us. Thank you so very much for sharing your story.
Much respect here, a real motor car. No nonsence. Pure connection he has with this machine, like i with my aircooled collection. The early rovers are welcome into my german aircooled collection. Those who have one for sale, please have a go with contacting me. Well done.
This is the 1st car we owned. I really wanna own it one day forever. I'm proud of u man, don't let it rust.
I love the world for people like that. Just off in his own world enjoying life like nobody else. Its beautiful man.
This Guy's passion for his Landy! Sold his SLR instead when times were lean. By doing that, he kept his smile.
That's what real cars were made for - just to have fun with them, to enjoy their simplicity and their own character
You sir have excellent taste in vehicles . And great video thank you.
Such a great video, I've watched 5 times already. Really poetic and shows you exactly what a Land Rover was built for, to be used and loved.
Hahahahaha Henry this is my third time watching. I drive a 109 Series 3. Cheers
Apparently it's a truck not a landrover Series III
Never gets old watched it half a dozen times
I feel so identify with your words, my husband and I have a Land Rover Santana, we are restoring it, getting it back to almost new, we do the most we can and we also have a lot of fun in it
Great movie. This owner has "I love this car" written all over his face. Wishing them lots of safe and happy miles together!
“I really love this truck”. True love in 5 words.
I am so happy there is finally a new petrolicious video! ....Welcome back!
Such a cool video. I bought a Series 3 SWB earlier this year. No mods - clean, honest old Landie. Like steering a boat, but every drive is an event. Summer is coming and the roof is coming off. I can understand the 'connection' Mr Litwinski has with his vehicle!
Its nice to see people really enjoying their vehicles. To many people care for their cars like they do their washing machines.
One of the coolest 4 x 4s ever...
Fj40 is one of them too!
+Yung Pauly I'm looking to buy one. My heart says rover, my brain says cruiser.
+Chris S Go Cruiser my buddy! Get an HJ if you can with a 2H engine they are one of the greatest engines ever built.
+DodoCnR I already have a 100 series cruiser. 33inch tires, 2 inch lift, running petrol and LPG. Does great on the LPG. I'm just itching for something I can take the top off. The FJ or BJ diesel here in Aus is an option, but IMHO, just not as cool as the series 2 or 3 swb. much easier to get a toyota though, so I might just go that way.
+Chris S bronco though
Nice to see this one being used for work, albeit a very different sort of work to what Rover originally intended!
For the 66 years The Land Rover has been around, they've all just quietly gotten on with Useful Things.
I like that. The simplicity, and the familiar whine of the gearboxes.
Love Pawel's enthusiasm for his Land Rover, I have a 109 and they do get under your skin. I noticed that he pushed the yellow knob down when he engaged low box with the red lever. Does he know that there is no need to push the yellow knob down for low box? Engaging low box automatically engages 4WD. The yellow knob is for engaging 4WD in high box only.
Thanks for the video, I've watched it more than once, it always cheers me up.
Ha was about to comment on that but you beat me to it 4 years ago! :-)
@@adriantyler6911 i was about to comment the same thing :D
This is what a Land Rover suppose to be. Land Rover shouldn't be those with classy leather heated seats and fancy air conditioners and center console for the rich millionaire old ladies's iPhone, lottery winners or Russian mobs. Land Rover suppose to be roving the land!
+mcg18993 have you been in a 2015 defender? trust me the word "millionaire" doesn't spring to mind! I have a brand new defender and a 83 series thee just like in this video, the similarities are incredible.
mcg18993 EXACTLY!!!
I have a 1977 Series 3 as well and have driven it across Australia twice now, fantastic car.
Beautiful story about an awesome piece of classic, british engineering. Sometimes you just develop a bond with a car/truck/whatever.
This is a beautifully restored Land Rover
I had the exactly the same Land Rover but as a cab, when he said it will go over anything he means anything! I used to run around fields and 4x4 quarry days. These last few years i've been missing her. Always love this video!
I understand the feeling completely, there is nothing like cruising the Coast, on and off the dunes! I'm in a 1990 Trooper, and I have had the time of my Life out there.
What a lovely guy...I how much fun would it be to spend the day with him and his stunning Landy driving over those dunes. Pure Freedom! So Pawel...thank you...and I SO understand why you grin from ear-to-ear when talking about your car. A series 3 is my next project for sure.
Why did I ever sell my Series III? I love this little movie and the personal narrative with it. It is shot cinematically and well, all credit to the team behind it. Splashing through a storm drain in a Series III under California sunshine looks pretty good to me.
I like those old Landys, reminds me of the 1961 International Scout my dad used to have.
I've watched this video countless times - I've never seen someone sum up the ownership experience of an old Land Rover so well. I grin like a loon driving my sIII too. You just can't help it.
This is the best one I have watched, so beautiful in every way!
I know that smile. I had it when I was 17-years old and test drove my first Series Rover. Only an enthusiast knows that smile on a fellow enthusiast. Not many people understand it's not about the latest electronically-controlled-this-or-that, or whether something has three different traction control modes for just wet. I most recently had the same grin on my face after trading in my technologically superior Japanese sportbike for a '97 Ducati. It's brutal ergonomics, gutturally primal cacophony of mechanicals had me, and still have me grinning ear to ear every day I ride.
Life has gotten in the way of currently owning my own Series Rover, but after seeing Litwinski's infections smile I may have to re examine my list! Great video.
Oh.. the expressions of this guy. So much of happiness in his eyes. Cheers bro.👍
A beautiful love-poem to the Series III. Lovely.
I couldn't agree more! Driving 'in the wind' like you do 'top less' haha, is GREAT. It feels like riding a motorbike, then pulling through the sand and water is a kick. Have fun!
the way you look at it has won my heart, I wish I get a Willys cj3b & build it from scratch & add those personal touches to call it me, my jeep and become in separable, I will leave it to my son so he can rejoice the memories of him in this & the childhood with his kids.
Love this video. This guy's enthusiasm is infectious.
What a nightmare to shoot this vid. Bravo to the Petrolicious people... the image stabilization, lighting, music, editing was all perfect. Great presentation of a great subject.
God damn, that is a thing of beauty. I wonder if he still has this?
Man Pawel (Pav) has come a long ways since his Road Rules days, I am so proud of him !!! :) Still doing what he loves , photography :) If he looks famaliar to you , he was on MTV's Road Rules 8 Semester at Sea.
Those old classic 4x4s are the best aesthetically. Simple for maintenance and fun.
My dads had one of these In The exact year since 1983 parked in the garage. Some of my best memories as a kid were in the back sideways bench with my sisters in these, he still has it but hasn’t driven since 1995. It’s in perfect condition, I finally told him he cannot under any circumstances sell it.
His enthusiasm rocks.
Great old truck i have a 88 model built for the Australian army love the thing .
+Alan Hughes im totally considering getting one of those! did you get the hardbody or the canopy version?
rag top
yes in Australia picked it up with 20.000 klm on the clock 5 grand ex army truck.
This is my favorite video yet. Beautiful S3. I have owned 7 land rovers including, a 1957 S1 swb. I never should have sold it. It was the only one i ever saw with a chrome grill. I feel the same way about the adventure. That is what a land rover is for. Thanks, keep on driving.
Tengo un Land Rover Santana militar restaurado. 6cil y 3500cc diésel. Disfruto mucho llevando esta joya de más de 40 años. Son coches muy especiales.
I have one same as yours an 88" in blue...owned it from new 40 years now...still love it after all those years...never part with it...its part of the family,
Love the sand dune area in your film...with we had something like that in the UK...could have a lot of fun...we do have dunes but they are all restricted access,
Looks like your love your as much as I love mine.
Nick in the UK.
Beautiful!the relationship a man has with his ride is something serious!
Coolest truck ever...Land Rover Series I - II -III and Defender ;)
Your videos never fail to put a smile on my face. I look forward to a new video about passionate car lovers every Tuesday. Please never stop what you're doing!
Hi from the other side of the pond (Landrovers home). Brilliant video has now inspired to get my 1983 model back on the road, just wish we had your weather and places to roam.
A proper Landrover is a friend for life.
I have a 1982 series 3 pick up. It was the first car I ever owned and it still has pride of place on my driveway. Its off the road at the moment as it needs a few jobs doing to it and I'm away with work a lot. I can't wait to get a better job where I'm home more and the first thing I'm going to do when I get home is put my Landy back on the road.
Just a guy that loves his truck. It's brilliant.
What a love story.
My first vehicle was a 1960 Land Rover that I bought in 1974. Brings back memories 👍
Enjoy
Fantastic vehicle, used by someone who knows what a Land Rover is meant for!
bought a new 1974 series III in San Diego while I was in the NAVY, Drove it all the way to Charleston SC and to Washington State in the winter . Wish I never sold it.
I just got given a Belstaff Jacket. Instantly it reminded me of this video. Now I have to have this truck.
I totally agree - I love my Series III Landy!
5:25 brought back memories, I rode atvs at pismo. One side of the dune is rounded and the other is a straight drop. I need to go back there so time.
This guy looks so happy! I hope that stays for as long as it can.
I love how I can tell how much he loves it.
I love my Land Rover Series III. You either love them or loath them, however these vehicles have stood the test of time unlike many imitators (and I know the original Land Rover was based on the WW2 Jeep) and it is said 70% of all Landies built are still on the road today. Definitely amoungst the greatest cars ever produced. Most of the ney-sayers I would imagine are from the USA, where there are plenty of excellent vehicles to choose from, but in most European, African and Australasian countries, Land Rover held the crown until British Leyland ruined things and Toyota came onto the scene.
To quote Richard Hammond, "A Land Rover would never turn up to collect an Oscar, it would be far to busy doing something important, somewhere, for someone".
Captain Clarke faking
Wonderful to see the connection this guy has with his Land Rover..... They do that to you I've been told :-)
I love that car! I hope you can keep it forever! oh my god I feel your joy! I want one! So bad!
Beautiful Landi. Beautiful video. Beautiful commentary. Thanks for the share.🍻💯
I know exactly how you feel bro. Those old Landys get into your DNA or something; and make life more fun. My favorite car of all time 😎💕👍👍👍
A fantastic film, thank you for making, I really enjoyed it.
Respect. Thankyou for sharing
Really special rig
I love this Defender
man I love this youtube channel !!!! just ordinary people passionate about their cars .. I love it
One of the best video of Land Rover
What a kick to watch your video this morning and then pass you on Olympic Blvd. this afternoon! Rove on, sir!
Love the side mirror.
Well done! We are proud of our Land Rovers here in England. They are for using! If they break parts are cheap. Keep it going Man!
Loved the video and the passion of Mr.Litwinski for his wheels . Wish to have some day soon :-)
Wow thanks for sharing your awesome truck!
Cheers!
This is my dad's all time favorite vehicle! I've this same model parked on the street, but it was in rough shape. I wish these trucks didn't cost a small fortune, then maybe I could get one for him.
Awesome video as always, also Mr. Pawel Litwinski automotive photography is epic!
This owner is having too much fun!
Magnificent vehicle...
PISMO IS AWESOME. Cool, thanks for sharing.
Pismo WAS awesome, back in the 70's and 80's, when Idiot Hill was open, the back country was open, and the Sand Highway was used as a drag strip....
No one take this the wrong way, I LOVE drovers, but ive never heard someone say "Its never broken down" before
*****
Rebuilding one of these girls then fitting a 200TDi or something is NOT a restoration. Should of bought a Defender if you can't stand the heat...
As an owner of a Series 3 I actually laughed at that. He must have bought that one Landy the rest of us thought was a myth. I bet this guy could win the lottery and have a pet unicorn too! Loved the video though, his enthusiasm and apparent joy at driving the car, as well as finding new practical uses for it as a photographer's assistant, brightened my day.
***** I have a 96 110 and it has never ever let me down. Always started, gone anywhere I wanted and brought me home without a worry in the world - I could be lucky - but it is slow, noisy and leaks like a sieve.
***** series 3 are really tuff fucks, this age of motors was a good time 70's-80's for europe (merc w123 D, peugeot 504 2.3D, Renault 4L, this shits were bullet proof. Slow as a turtle but they just don't break.
3AM Channel
I know man I have one, Series IIIs break down all the time haha but always get you there
The delicious Petrolicious have done it again!... You can't be beat right now. Some more please...
Love it,Clean and Original...
They do go anywhere. Can't beat a landy. Cool video.
Found one on craigslist, driving with my friend to get it, needs some TLC to get started, series 3 rover, very nice condition, I am super super excited! Will happen this weekend, will be parked on the street but I am going for it.
so so so nice landrover, just love that 4x4 and that color is one of the best!
