Hi all. Bit worried about putting up a pic with all this talk about eyebrows & bull bars although this has bull bar. Might have to think about it some more.Having said that though, this latest aquistion does have some military history! Now that`s got you thinking or worried. Be afraid,very afraid. cheers

My grandfather had a 1957 landrover ute at coffs harbour, sold the banana plantation and the vehicles to my uncle, who sold the landrover last yr or so.

I was pissed!
I wanted it!

Must feel good that rust can ever really be an issue :P

my bro has an exy Rural fire service ute with period tray and landy 6 in place. he said, "it's a tractor" :lol: when he bought it he drove it home from tenterfield doing max 80km/h the whole way with earplugs in his ears coz there is no insulation. however, it pulls a loaded up car trailer no dramas. :)

their other car is a 67 split panel. let's just say they old school motoring.
