Private sort of bloke. Glenn at Roverland or whatever it's called now might know. Or Greg at AMV. Otherwise NFI.

I used to see him round town here a bit as there was a personal connection to a local retirement village and he was often here on weekends. I got a personal delivery of a clutch master cylinder ordered via phone from his Bayswater shop here once. I haven't seen landrovers around that retirement village place for ages, perhaps a couple of years at least. I have no idea but suspect they've drifted off into the retirement sunset.

thanks for the info. I will try greg at AMV in ringwood because the only roverland on g=====e is in the US!

Sorry. Roverland ran into copyright probs with LR. Eastern Ranges Prestige these days. Land Rover & Range Rover Repairs Melbourne | Landrover Repairers Melbourne

But I reckon the Moe clue is your best bet. Fred was RAEME, a few yeas before me. He did the Army Apprentice thing, so he must be mid 70s at least.

Hope you find him.

No luck with either Greg or Glen . Neither of them could tell me were he is these days. Glen confirmed he has moved out of Bayswater and headed into deepest darkest Gippsland . Surely someone is using his skills on their landy and can give me a number!
