Hi there all
Its a 1951 SWB Land Rover - location of were it was stationed is unknown as the vehicle was a basket case (due to the steel water tank rusting out)
Currently being totally rebuilt to the original plans. If anyone can shed any light on where the vehicle was stationed it would be greatfully appreciated.
I have enclosed the initial pamphlet of the vehicle built by a Australian Land Rover agent based in Adelaide (Champions)

Within the CFS book - tried by fire there is a brief picture of the vehicle (I think) but there is no visall of the pump etc.
Many thanks
Wayne
