The one on the left looks like a short wheelbase Land Rover (series 88?)

Is that a guess?

This one did keep me busy for a while -- therefore it really deserves its own page! ;)

Not yet convincing enough for a page of its own?
Okay ... you asked for it ... :D

This image tells most of the story:

At the bottom edge the door hinges can just be identified. They are Series II/IIa.
Also the hinges of the bonnet and those of the windscreen are Series II/IIa.

But ... the hinge on the bulkhead, to which the windscreen hinge is attached, is definitely Series III. [Image: denknach.gif]

What do I make of that? My theory is as follows:
Unlike the outer panels the bulkhead is made of steel. After 20 odd years it might has deteriorated and a new bulkhead was fitted, but this time one of a Series III.

It is not possible to tell whether it is a SWB (88") or LWB (109"). Any chance to get a side view? Even a blurred one would be okay.

This is supposed to be the same 109" S.IIa (1968) .!!

Interesting, but it definitely isn't. But now we can at least guess that it is a 109", too.

The red Chevy is a K10...short wheel base.
