Thread: How many civilian Forward Controls are there.

It was green.

Two doors, tray back. The paint looked very clean and fresh.

Caption for the photo of Ron's 101: "Always carry a spare."

Seriously, though. It's a pity I can't come to Cooma and see all this 'exotic' fare come out of the woodwork. I look forward to the photos here after.

Here are some beasts I've come across or owned. I know of at least 12 in S.E. Queensland.

There is also a 2A or B in a certain very big shed in Tewksbury Tas.

I just spotted a foward control landy in Yeppoon , up on Meikleville Hill just down the road from where I live. Not sure what model it is exactly but it's not a 101. What do i look for to identify the beast ? Seems to be in not to bad nic as well.

If you can get close to the vehicle, the rear axle on a SIIB is underslung and it has a anti sway bar on the front axle.

From a distance (provided the front has not been changed)

• The SIIA has headlamps at middle height of the front panel and the side and flasher lamps in the 4 corners. (The track is the same as the Series II/IIA and Series III normal control)
• The SIIB has headlamps at the bottom 1/3 height of the front panel and the side and flasher lamps above each other in the top corners. (The track is 4" wider same as Defender/RRC)

Most of the pics above are SIIB
