Hi Ryan,
Nice Land Rovers there. The Series 2A Workshop variant is certainly one of my favourites. Attached is a picure of my '72 S2A 88" which, conicidentally, I trial fitted a NOS canopy to yesterday. It was fitted with a civvy hardtop when I bought it quite a few years ago which I only just removed. I still need to sort out the middle hood bow as the one I thought was correct is too wide and the horiztonal pieces slightly too long. I'm now not sure what it's off. This particular vehicle is a bit of an oddity as the Australian Army 88" Series 2A's were all made in 1963 and 1964 (like your one above). From what I can work out the RAAF Airfield Defence Guard used these late Series 2A 88" built to Australian Army spec. How many were made is not really known. As far as I'm aware, this is the only one that is known in Australia and there is one in the UK. It's currently awaiting refurbishment. Ian

Ian the NZ army received a batch of new 88inch 2As, I'm guessing about 1973.
