    Land Rovers and the R.A.N.

    Having a chat about land rovers on RAN ships, I thought it would be an interesting story to follow up. It is. Courtesy of R.E.M.L.R.;

    Here is HMAS Voyager (II) on 27th January 1958 steaming up the Johore Strait on route to Singapore.



    Note the Land Rover adjacent the port bulwark.

    These images comes from an AULRO thread on the restoration of one of these early RAN 80" Landies.

    First batch supplied from Grenville Motors to the RAN.

    Note the third image was an 80" Tickford Station Wagon.
