Does Anyone Recognise........

This old truck which was parked next to me at the Steam Fair at Nostell Priory this afternoon?

Also; the 'toy' that goes in the box is just the right size for me :wink:

I've seen that trailer before, and that 109 parked next to your 110 is Dan's Soddit (although dan prefers to name it SEB).  :D

It will be the same vehicle.  Owner is Daniel Warden, and the vehicle is a 1968 109-inch One-Ton bonneted control, powered by a straight-six 2.6 Litre Rover engine and a very low ratio transferbox/gearbox.  :)

The contents of the trailer are equally impressive

It is indeeds Dans truck, I converse with him quite frequently on 'LandRovernet.com', & he's reasonably local (20-30minutes drive)
I spent a most enjoyable afternoon with him yesterday at the Steam Fair, then back to my houseto check the photos & onwards to photograph the 2A with some pylons

I thought it was late 1968 that they moved the lights to the wings?  Or am I get confused with export models with the bug-eyes?  :shock:

Yeah, 1968 saw the bug eyes, and it was from about feb/march 1969 they changed on the home market models.
