Can anyone enlighten me with more information about it? Bonus 348 for your time.
Edit: Thanks to commenters for pointing out how I thought it was a Defender, when it was really a Series LR.

I can’t enlighten much because I broke my monitor without using my arms or legs.

It’s red with white wheels and lives in NY.

It’s a Series Land Rover, not a Defender.

First. it’s not a Defender, the Defender came about in 1991 with the release of the Discovery necessitating the name change from the Land Rover 110 from 1983 and the Land Rover 90 from 1984 which had followed the Series III.
It is a Land Rover Series III 109". The Series III went into production in 1971, this one above (RJS690L) was registered on the 4th of May 1973 and is a 2625cc (86hp) petrol vehicle.

I was going to guess IIa 109, but I don’t know the series trucks that well.

The later IIAs looked very similar to the IIIs. If it was a 1971 registered car I would of been undecided. But it was registered in 1973 so quite comfortable in saying it’s a Series III.
