    The standard spot for fuel jerries was in front of the wings when the headlights were still in the guards. a lot of series 1 and 2's did it that way. I've not seen it tat way on a late 2a or series 3 though.

    G'day Folks

    That's a nice US spec late 2a, note that it is a 1969 model, we didn't get the headlight change until 12 months later.

    cheers

    Do you think the galvanised firewall and grill panel were NADA Spec. as well?

    You won't find me on: faceplant; Scipe; Infragam; LumpedIn; ShapCnat or Twitting. I'm just not that interesting.

    Is that the std green they came out with? Looks a bit like BRG to me.
    I want to do my 2A trailer in this colour on the outside, and keep the original beige inside.
    If anyone can let me know the original paint codes, or has pics of samples, it would make me a happy camper as I want to get it finished soon.
    See the link here for the pics so far.
    It has been painted once before in the greyish colour you see in the pics, but inside is original.

    It looks like Bronze Green. The Original Series I Colour, but with a gloss finish.
    I painted my SIII that colour. It's my favourite Land Rover Colour - looks very distinguished.

    That is a very cool way to mount jerry cans although I can't think it's be great if you ran into anything.

    That looks like it is Deep Bronze Green, which was a standard Landrover colour from 1952 onwards, and is still available to my knowledge, interesting to note that even the bonnet support frame is galv, so it is a no expense spared resto, and the 109 wagon looks good too

    cheers
