Thread: Hypothetical: Series One Hybrid

I have heard of Series bodies on early Hilux running gear, Why? I have no idea!

Hmm drive a series three hybrid, cab might even be earlier. Has the series two/ two A fuel filler. Sort of like a Defender. There was a post about a factory built cross between a series three and a ranger rover. Had leaves on the rear and coils on the front. Only a few made.

Bill isnt your vehcile just that, well it was when i came to your place to pick up a rangie part from you .

All this talk has got me wanting to play meccano again.
heres one I prepared earlier



This time I might go the green roadster path, the idea is growing on me.

Bill, while looking at my photos,
this one you remember was at your place,
is that Arnold hiding behind the tree ?

The car is the same as the Yellow one in the previous post,
I think i liked it better with the Series 2 windscreen.

No mine's a series 2, And unlike series ones the leaks, rattles and flapping bits of 'tin' are not standard issue, but due to the bodywork making contact with terra firma far too often

Could be Arnold before he went grey Don. That must have been 20 or more years ago. The series screen does it for me too. Cool truck.

I think the roadster's OK but I love the dropped Series II on the VW chassis in the other thread you started.
