Land-Rover in action (factory brochure)

[Bill E.]

I just finished scanning in this factory brochure lent to me by Aart Van Der Star. Its a pretty interesting 28 page booklet showing all the good jobs you can put your Land-Rover to. The page below shows some photos taken in BC. Most of the booklet shares space between series 1 and series 2 trucks. All 28 pages can be viewed in the photo gallery, at member's galleries, at Bill Eastwood's gallery.

Hey Bill,

That's awesome, Thanks for posting.

The Series One shown was apparently one of several (3?) they bought in the early 50's. One of them, apparently stored in a warehouse and not used, was bought by Maple Bay Volunteer Fire Department in about 1956 and was in active service as a fire truck until some time in the late 80's when it was retired, restored and is still there on display and use in parades. In fact- I drove it last Sunday in the Canada Day parade.
