Film of 1952, the Land Rover was actually at her first youth  Not anybody to identify it? or should I choose? Alex: ![[Image: sm.gif]](http://maxfsl.perso.cegetel.net/sm.gif "http://maxfsl.perso.cegetel.net/sm.gif") (that's a long time ago i didn't use this smiley ) |

Land-Rover 80" Series I for sure, but impossible to give an exact year. I'll choose the year of introduction. |

Alex, I'm not asking you to read my mind, but why did I think (although I wasn't certain enough to commit myself) that this might be a 107"/109" Series I pickup? (Cab roof, maybe?) |

A bit of mind-reading? No problem, Chris! ![[Image: zauberer_2.gif]](http://www.my-smileys.de/smileys3/zauberer_2.gif "http://www.my-smileys.de/smileys3/zauberer_2.gif") The aftermarket cab on this one has a similar shape to the standard cab of the 107"/109". Also the white board with black writing behind the cab makes it look like the higher rear sideline of the 107"/109". But there are three reasons why it is an 80": 1st: You can see both wheels. The rear axle is to close for a LWB. 2nd: Note the triangle in the white bit of the door. This is a piece of canvas where you poke through your hand to open the door. The early LRs had no outside door-handle. 3rd: This film is from 1952, the 107" arrived in 1954! .gif ";)") |

![[:prosterne]](https://imcdb.opencommunity.be/images/smileys/prosterne.gif "[:prosterne]") ... I think the dunce smiley should be added to the permitted ones (I can't get it to work). But then maybe I'm the only one prepared to admit I'm an eejit  -- Last edit: 2008-05-25 22:23:28 |

Don't admit something you're not! You are certainly one of the excellent identifiers around here ... and for all of us this place is a wonderful place to learn an awful lot ... I certainly did and will keep on learning just by trying to correctly identify vehicles I haven't seen before. |
