Alexander ◊ 2007-12-10 12:38	Converting a Land-Rover from left- to right-hand drive is not so difficult, but a simpler fact speaks against this one being a Land-Rover Santana: it is a Series I. The Spanish built LRs only started with Series II. This one is -- here you are right, again, Chris -- an ex-British Army Land-Rover 88" Series I (1956-58). Next to the headlight bezels the rear view shows the military style towing jaw (painted in red) and the trailer socket, protected by a red cover. The longer wings, forward mounted springs and re-enforced door hinges date it.
