Your 1948 LR would have been a late 1950 model see here: Early land Rover chassis numbers begin with the model year eg 8 = 1948 0 = 1950 1 = 1951

There was a short production run where the later 1950 models had the free wheel system locked for reverse by a yellow knob control. Before the yellow knob, the 1948 to 50 models had a chain through the floor panel with a ring pull , rather like an old dunny chain !
