Hello Ryan,
Are you aware of the Land Rover dedicated site - The Registry of Ex Military Land Rovers? It is a good source of information based in Australia with lots of active members - http://remlr.com/forum My Land Rovers are a bit newer than yours as they are Series 3s. Welcome to a new level of frustration as Land Rovers sure can offer unique challenges. Kind Regards Lionel

Sorry for the delay guys,
Rich I can assure you they will not have a holden six transplant. Both vehicles have been one owner vehicles since leaving the army and as you said, are quite complete. Ian that is a fine looking shorty. Can you tell me your source of your canvas? Hi Lionel, yep I do know of remlr, I've been diving through their records and such for a bit. There is a nice series 3 truck for sale atm moment actually. Quite a bit of choice when it comes to land rovers. I'm not use to that.

Thanks for the info Lynn regarding the NZ late Series 2A's SWB's. I would be interested to know if they are the same spec as mine. I'll see what information I can find.
Ryan, I bought the canopy around 10 years ago and unfortunately I can't remember where I got it from... Ian |

No worries Ian.
Here's a pic of my latest bit of kit. An original tow warning sign.

A spot of maintenance.
And a new Vietnam task force tac. I can take a wheel hub off with one hand! No engine crane needed like my old blitz. It's a new world.

Have acquired replica army plates with the vehicle's original ARN. Very pleased with them. Got them through a business on Facebook called 'signmyname'. They are not embossed but still look the part.

Got a plate too for my workshop trailer. This trailer served in Vietnam with 8RAR.
