It is a very nice looking vehicle, but, I doubt it is a Perentie.
It looks to be one of the civy 6x6 Landrovers which is still desirable.

Definitely not a perentie (no wide body / fibreglass roof), but a very nice truck. Not quite as well set up for touring as LieutenentRover's 6x6 IMHO, but in some aspects even more versatile with a 5 seater dual cab & a still massive tray - one of very few 6x6's I've seen in top condition. I'm somewhat puzzled by the "WIDE TRACK FRONT AXLE WITH PROVISION FOR MAXI DRIVE DIFF LOCK" - anyone know what that's about?
This one looks good. I wish i could have it too but that would just be greedy.

You'd prefer a civvy spec to your Perentie?Quote:

I'll swap...mine has a rebuilt gearbox now so much better than last time I offered to swap it...
James_J has posted his 1991 county on here. This is the same one that was owned by D3Jon. It is one of the best and most original examples I have seen.
Saw this on eBay today. Low starting price, but looks like it might be a lot of work. Could be worth a look though.

This one just ended again, I think it looks ok so I asked a few questions. That is a new crossmember in th chassis, what looks like rust in the bulkhead in the engine bay is where there 'was' sound deadening and it's glue.

What do you guys think? I can't get the videos of it running but I asked him to email me more photos and the videos. I think the price is a bit steep, and although the Isuzu motor is reliable I bet they are sluggish. Would have to drive it from there to hunter valley Nsw! Big trust in something that I don't know:(
Would be nice to fix her up a bit, give that tired motor a tickle and a turbo. New bucket seats etc. etc
Jonno.....that one has been advertised for quite a few months...
I know a guy who was looking for one and he asked the vendor by ebay email to supply VIN etc for checking and this was refused, when asked to supply a phone number to enable discussion this was also refused.
Draw your own conclusions....
If you can get a better response that you are happy with then you can take a chance if you want to - nothing wrong with making a lower offer....
Since he started trying to sell it there have been good ones available that have sold and there will be good ones available in future.....
Hmm thanks 87county, I will ask him for them and see what he says, no vin? Write off? Stolen? Who knows! Will let you know what he says.
