The SIII Land Rover introduced a plastic radiator grille. The story is that the wire-mesh grilles up to SIIA Land Rovers were often used to barbecue steak over camp fires. Plastic on the other hand does nothing for the taste. True or not, this particular plastic grille came from an owner of another SIII Land Rover who replaced that car's grille many years ago with a wire one. Andrew subsequently acquired the unused plastic grille.
Some vehicles have a deluxe bonnet with a rounded leading edge.
The headlights have been replaced with 100W units, switched through a relay, which are a great improvement over the original candles. The rear view shows the split tail-gate, the two halves opening upwards and downwards respectively. The present door handle is non-original. Grab handles on the rear chassis cross-member help with debogging and hark back to the Willys Overland Jeep MB which inspired the old Land Rover series I . It provided a modicum of padding for crash safety which became a growing concern in the 1970s.
