It is a S2a lightweight. I only know of two in Australia.
Yep, quite rare.


In 1967 two were built
In 1968 512 were built
In 1969 600 were built


Yep. Rarer than 101s.


I should have bought that one when I had a chance.

Don.

Are you assuming the engine is in the front?

I thought most of that type of vehicle had them in the back.

nice concept,

good work in Photoshop too,

Certainly rare in Australia, but probably less so overall. Comparable perhaps to the civilian 6x6 110, for example.

I don't think many survive overseas as well. Lots of Series 3 versions about.
I think the S2a versions look much nicer.

I've always wanted a 1968 model (year I was born).

Some of us can't do that as we were born before they started building them.
