Ahhh yes, Land Rovers. Managed to kick that addiction, ( the TD 300 was a wonderful way of going cold turkey) amazing how much of my shed is still taken up with the left overs though!!
Rich.

Gor a photo of the 101 Richard? Was it the darker green one that was at corowa?
(I'm researching 101's and 101 prototypes etc at the moment)

Georges 101 is a battered and very original example, especially the paint work. It was at the other caravan park just out of Corowa, and I did not see it being driven around as he took the oppourtunity to be ferried about in style and comfort (ie By Champ). He did tell me about one modification, the fitting of a Cardan, or double universal joint, to the back of the front tailshaft. Apparently the angle from the transfer case output to the front diff is really too much, and this mod. gives a smoother ride at cruising speed. That is the entire sum of my knowledge, but should see it again next year at Champ Camp 09.
Rich.

Yup, I had a look over it at the airport after the parade at corowa. I heard him talking about the same mod!
. A very nice vehicle. Not much gives it away as a prototype, but it is indeed an early prototype. No 2 or 4 from memory.
