Had an interesting meeting at the Land Rover 70th. Hanging around the forward controls on display was a chap, neatly dressed with fedora hat and sporting a proud handlebar moustache. His name was Wolfgang Laub, a name that sparked a memory from the Grenville Books "W. Laub 33100434D".
Wolfgang was the garbage contractor for Thredbo Village in the 1970's, this piece of information solved a second quandary. Also at Cooma was a cab chassis S2A on the records as SMHEA, manypeople were suggesting that it may have been the garbage truck, however we now know that was Wolfgang's S2B #434D.

P.S. It is possible that our discussion took place while standing next to the now hybrid S2B 33100434D

Description of Vehicle
This Forward Control Landrover is available as a full "from the ground up" restoration project.
To assist with this, a Series 2A Landrover is included as donor vehicle. The 2A has the same wheel base width as the Forward Control.
This is the early version of Forward Control Landys: a 2A built from 1962 to 1966.
It was one of the Forward Controls imported from the UK for the construction of the Snowy Mountain Hydro Electric Scheme.
The recent history of this Forward Control is available, from 1982 onwards.
According to reports from one of the big Landrover shows in Kelmarsh England, these very rare early Forward Controls are very collectable.
There is some rust in the chassis but otherwise this Forward Control is very good structurally.
These vehicles are based in Denmark, on the south coast of Western Australia.
Both vehicles are to be sold together. Ideally, we would like for this to go to a Landrover enthusiast who has a view to restoring the Forward Control

Hi,
can any members add any info re the two FC's for sale in NSW--the one in Dural which has Nissan 6stud axles, and a Nissan diesel engine--would the axles be a good idea or not, and also the camper at Old Bar, a 2A that I think originally came from (was converted to a camper) Victoria.
I am after a FC (not 101) so just wondering.
Thanks,
Alan

Not sure what has happened to the one with the nissan engine.
It was on ebay a few times.
The one in Old Bar was still for sale when I was there a few weeks ago. Asking price is $25K

At least they have a more comfortable driving position and your feet don't freeze in cold weather. They also have a few curves unlike the 101. [bigwhistle] But I guess its all personal preference.

No idea where it is now. Saw one in Brisbane (would have been mid nineties) that looked to be in good condition and parked under cover for protection from weather. This was until the owner pointed out that it had been shortened in the chassis due to rust. Was proud of his work as otherwise would have been scraped. Cut in middle and joined back together.

Pity you don't have piccies!

2b chassis number 33100143A, previously listed as Darwin, is now in Adelaide, owned by me.
It will have a series 3 6cylinder in it for a while, the original engine got full of water and seized solid. Will re build and re-fit at a later date.
I intend to renovate to some where near original state, I have no need to undertake long trips so I'm happy to retain the 6 cylinder set up.
I am also searching for a few bits.
1 wheel step, an SU carby with intake elbow, even a picture old be useful, poss 1 bonnet latch.
I'd like some help with a few other matters as well.
The brake booster is missing along with some bracketry, a photo of the set up in place would be a great help.
I will need to re make the rear 3/4 of the upper chassis, it has been cut behind the cab when the steel tray was fitted, I've removed this.
Does anyone have drawings with dimensions of this or know where I could find them?
lastly, is there some way of finding out what year this 2b is? I thought it was a 67, would just like to confirm.
thanks in advance,
Peter.

Hi,
just wondering re this one for $25K--advert says a 2A but ENV's etc and front panel say 2B but inside gearstick location looks like 2A as in front of the seatbox--so what is it really as main advantage of 2B is the wider and safer diffs than the narrow 2A ones? Did soem late 2A's maybe come out with wider ENV's?
Thanks,
Alan

It will be a late 2A with the narrow track. A look at the rear spring mounts will show it.
Env,s were an option and so was the low light front panel.
The parts book says front panel 334460 2A up to suffix A
Then 336041 2A 2 1/4 litre from B onwards all 2.6 litre and series 2B to suffix c. So that will be when the low light came in on the 2A and followed on to the early 2B.
Then came 345638 for series 2B suffix C onward. What the difference is they dont say. Mine is a 2A with the hi lights. It came with a rover diff in front and ENV in rear.
The 2B had a cable driven wiper the 2A individual wipers like this one.
