That's them [thumbsupbig] but it's not a light weight, front guards have said indicators but generic trailer parkers.........as if where it came from front parkers weren't standard or needed
the plot thickens I'll keep the angle grinder at bay for a while
Cheers Paul
Your guess seems correct Rod

huge Smiths heater hope fan works
Attachment 139752 going to try and get hardtop glass cut to windscreen sizeAttachment 139753
Cheers Paul
The heater looks like a UK one.
You'll only be able to cut the glass if it's laminated, toughened will end up as a lot of very small pieces.
The 37 Rhine Workshop was a British base.......
It's RHD so not Dutch unless it was converted.
Is there, or was there, a fuel tank under the drivers seat ?
Colin
Maybe send sign up for another forum......EMLRA - Ex-Military Land Rover Association
They might be able to work out some of it's history.
Colin
Colin no evidence of fuel tanks under seats at all, and as I said before no fillers cut into tub either.
except for the one in middle drivers side tub that had been modified to fill added aluminium tank in tub.
The firewall is like cornflakes and so is the chassis so basicly getting whatever will be useful and salvageable off it.

Went back to the farm the last vehicle came off today and secured this one for a bunch of flowers the missus brought with her from our garden[thumbsupbig][thumbsupbig]
Attachment 140398 Attachment 140399 Attachment 140400 rego sticker says 1962 so 2 or 2a perhaps chassis appears good but for rust in dumb irons
this poured out of exhaust pipe on trip home so I'm guessing the head maybe rusted out

Funky 60s speedo I'll defiantly keepAttachment 140402 swing tailgate I also likeAttachment 140403 and 4 fuel tanksAttachment 140404

over view of my section of back yard
Attachment 140408 and landy collectionAttachment 140409 stripping of NATO truck well under way
Material on ground is to extend shed lean-to to house treasures
Plan is to strip and rebuild series 3 have a complete car, and then make a good sound 2a bug eye out of the other two.
Plus keep plugging away at my boat build, house maintenance , gardening as directed by head gardener...............................[bighmmm][bigwhistle]
Retirement is bloody hard work[bigsad][bigsmile][bigsmile]
Cheers Paul
Getting stuck into tearing apart my vehicles to see what I've got and what and how I can rebuild while the grass isn't growing [bigwhistle]also a bit cold for epoxy to set off[bigwhistle]
Attachment 141239 the red one in the middle is doing my head in[bawl] not for the mechanical side but what is it and ADR's
To me its a wide light 2a, chassis and bulkhead series2 Attachment 141246 Attachment 141247 Attachment 141248 Attachment 141249removed bulkhead
However rego says 1972 build date is........... this not series 3?Attachment 141250 CALvin doesn't seem to recognise numbers
Want it eventually to sail through rego as a series 2a seatbelts maybe, but I don't want padded dash, demisters ,window washers, steering locks etc.
Am I overthinking all this..........I have a tendency not to be the sharpest knife in the draw[bighmmm] comments welcome ..........about the car not the cutlery[bigsmile]
Cheers Paul
I might be wrong.
That appears to be the correct apron panel for my ‘58 on the red truck. Been looking for one for a while. If you’re thinking of not using it don’t chuck it, send me a PM
Peter.
