    Awesome vehicle they are, too. I was taken up and down a VERY steep track in one 10 months ago. It's something on my 'wish' list.

    Air transportable lightweight

    Hello from Brisbane,

    Military "lightweight" designed to be air transportable back in the late 60s - narrower body than the Series 2/3 models and able to be stripped down to almost a running chassis.

    Became redundant with heavy lift aircraft.

    Cheers,

    A few came out of Hong Kong as well, including mine. Drifter feel free to come round and have a look if you are so inclined, noting of course it is the process of being restored.

    And it's a pretty schmick restoration, too. I'd love to see it. Further, I'd love to see it participating in some of our Series events.
