Thought I would post the actual vehicle in question (from another forum) - thanks Wayne!

I'm thinking that IsuzuRover may be correct - the carby looks to be a 2" SU making the engine a Rover 3 Litre.

G'day All, Just looking at that other website (S1's) re the Series 2 L/Rover that was used on that expedition, it was seen at Dungog (Rumbel's) in the late 70's, I have no information on the trailer, but I do have the Oversea's Land Rover club badge that adorned the grille of that Series 2, I got it from O.R about 12 years ago cheers Dennis
