In this job you have to be able to either run very fast or fight very well.......I am too fat to run!

i'd have to question wether the one on EBAY is genuine or not, ite body looks right, but the front guards dont, even for a proper series 3, it looks like the front panels have been cut as opposed to the side panels being cut differently to the suffix G IIA's, plus as a series 3, it would have the normal front guards anyway

G'day Sprint

It is a Series 3 1976 model so it may have been ex army, BUT, it has the front guards cut like 2a,has S3 dash Holden Motor, has 2a rear w/shop body, with dog cage, No I don't think there is much original on it, as far as I know there were no production Ser 3's in Workshop form

cheers

exactly what i said uncle, but heres my breakdown of the errors

1: front face of S3 guards has been cut, unlike the G-suffix IIA's that had the sides cut to a different profile to match the depth of a S3 headlight panel, but thats all irrelevant considering S3's didnt have the cut cuards
2: it certainly looks like a workshop body, but the rear cab panel doesnt have the cutout for the canopy stick (?) box
3: gardening tool brackets, brush bar and blackout switch panel are all MIA

Attached is a picture of a series 111 MV (Maintainence Vehicle) this is ARN 33-883. I looked at this vehicle a few years ago and it has since been sold on. I was data plated as a GS.

methinks its a bitsa too,
no ser 3 booster on the brake master, an after market on the guard inner
the throttle linkage goes along the top of the firewall similar to that on a ser 3 civvy
battery box in engine bay, the ser3 4 cylinder civvys are there.

Its using the original radiator which looks like a 4cyl one.
the data plates are in the wrong spot, whether the nos correspond I don;t know

thats my take on it.

back from the desert for the moment

Hi, have some photos of a series three which i believe is one of the 25 maintenence vehicles listed in the ARN's. Unfortunatly the photos I took of the data plate is too blurry to make out the chassis no. but is a ' TRUCK, LIGHT, CAB AND CHASSIS, G.S.'.
Hope to make it one of mine soon...

More photos of series 3 MV's wouild be nice as we have very few, and none good enough to put on REMLR.
