My brother and a friend of his were off-roading in the area and were asked to provide this vehicle for this scene. Kinda neat, happened to be in the right place at the right time!! It's an 88 Series II. He himself still has his 1961 109 Series II. He calls it "Monst", short for The Great Grey Monstrosity. |

Have tagged you as owner (even if it was actually your brother's). Agree doesn't match S3 - looks to me like a 68-69 S2a "Federal", also known as "Bugeye" for lights in the wings. |
