understood and thanks. I didn't get to grips with the fact that the PMC Sydney plate would have covered other locations. Good to be put right.

It could however have been a vehicle destined for Regents, but went via PMC for assembly and was then shipped built up to Melbourne as final destination. So both the PMC and Regents being correct.

I would like to ask Diana is she could give me some history on the numbers of my 4/71 88 station wagon.
Pressed metal no's body no. 14841
PMC S/n 8814841
Land Rover chassis no. 24319536G
and I just found the engine no. 24136026A
Calvin shows it as a CKD.

Hi Chris

Sorry for not getting back to these I only found the post today. Those vehicles are quite interesting as they are the orphan SII 88" model that still had the series 1 IOE 2 litre engine where the 109" had the pushrod 2.283 litre or 2 litre diesel.

It only lasted for one production year 1958, and most of the vehicles in that group have lost their 2 litre engine. Have you looked at the 1418 sticky thread http://www.aulro.com/afvb/series-lan...x-engines.html

Now to your vehicles:
No.1
Chassis No. 143800622; Engine No. 141805081: the only information I have on that one is that the entire batch (103) was sent to Queensland (Annand and Thompson), the engine is the original one fitted, it was a soft top and the key code 666.

No.2
Chassis No. 143800068; Engine No. 141800650: The information is difficult to read. The engine is the original one fitted, it was a soft top and the key code 672. It was delivered 24/10/58

Not so good analysing the customer. See if you can work it out?
