Born in 1954? So it's as old as I am....

It's in wonderful shape.
I wish I could be restored like that!
Are those aluminum bodies on a steel frame?
All the best.... HEO

Land Rover 1st Series, 1954.

An icon in its kind. I'd live in the countryside, seaside or mountain, I would have loved to get one. For me, it is a part of the perfect garage. Best, Nicolas ...

One of these was the best I could aspire to (when I lived in the Western Pacific). Mind you, it was the only one on the island.

Isn't that the Mini Moke?

It is. I remember carrying a Gilbertese barman, Bokai, to hospital in it. Stabbed in the groin, his blood sloshed around the rear footwell. The Moke, God bless it, was empty of fuel and ran on vapour.

Well said. Remarkably, Bokai survived and, in a culture where courage is essential, was behind the bar, although grey-faced and wide-eyed, the next night.
