  1. The AVO 12, complete I think... Measures a 1.5v from a 'AAA' with some defection and a D Cell fitted/installed inside.....
  2. I have a S3 109 FFR currently and I recall on Exercise in the late 80's in Germany seeing that some FFR's having a NATO tow hitch on the front bumper to facilitate towing and recovery using the REME 'fixed bar' as these were a valuable asset if they broke down. The tow hitch was painted in various red/black/green colours... You will must/need a spreader plate behind. LR Part No's to check are 531447 and 523807 (with a double nutted 1/2 inch UNF full threaded bolt). I have these parts to fit to my SIII now and can provide measurements/photos for you to get made up locally.....
  3. I have a 1983 Land Rover 3/4 Ton Series 3 FFR 109 LWB Soft Top [82 KB 67] which is MOT'd and drive-able... Picture is from earlier today and is under pre MOT maintenance with headlamps/ indicators rebuild as the Easter weekend task. Live Carmarthenshire and bought the FFR off a local mate as a 'barn find' and hope to drive it around a bit more often in the summer. It has an ABRO 3 bearing 2.25 Ex lightweight Petrol recon fitted with the Transistorized 24 Volt electrics fitted. I am slowly de-civilianising it back to what I first learn't to drive when I signed up in 1985.... I am also very fortunate to have a 1969 Sankey Narrow Track 3/4 Ton Trailer in Class 1 Condition as repaired by my brother who is an Ex REME VM-B Class 1 Fitter. I have very recently obtained a spare 24 Volt Generator, Generator panel No 9 Mk 4 and period AVO 12 meter to give Clive Elliotts excellent 'All Charged Up' a go for checking the spares... I guess the first step is to test the AVO meter!!! I am currently seeking a period FFR Radio table, side strengtheners and supports If any one knows where the bits might be lurking! :red:
