Default Land Rover FFR table

I am fabricating a new table for my LARKSPUR radio installation in the series 1.

I have the detailed drawings here . Wondering if its worth making more than one table ? It is a hard to get item these days .

The table is 50" wide and was I believe in use right into the 1980's.

Mike

Hi Mike,

When I was down visiting uncle Tim Viberts's new location some weeks ago I spied a stack of New Old Stock Larkspur tables in the shed. They are complete with the clamping screw assemblies as well. They are the only ones I have seen anywhere for many years. A bit too big to fit into the already overloaded car at the time though unfortunately...

Cheers

Phill

Default table

I managed to buy an original FFR table .. it's rather heavy for its size . The little rover will know its there with all the added weight of the other radio bits.
