certainly looks ex-mil. Have you got the chassis number yet ?
thanks for the feedback so far guys, here's a couple more pics - it's a worthwhile project for the right person I reckon...plus also have a small amount of spares I'm selling including a metal roof with new rubbers, manifold for 3.5 v8 modified to suit holley, and original hduty aerial mounts.

Whereabouts is the chassis number?Quote:

the plate and chassis should say the same thing, but the chassis number is stamped on the left hand rear spring hanger.Quote:

LAND ROVER SOFTTOP 6CYL
943259120
11/79
GVM 2760kg (jeez these buggers are heavy!):)
rear spring hanger says 4325912 c (its dark but it looks like a c)
According to the REMLR records it is a '79 S3 FFR (fitted for radio). The ARN was 30-512. The plate and chassis will infact be the same number and that would be 94325912C. The GVM figure of 2760 includes it's maximum load but not what it is towing. The first lot of figures are Australian ADR numbers IIRC.Quote:
