All i am after is pictures in general of the GS landie in service, i was in the T A from 1977 untill 1999 and never took any photos i now have a 109 GS and i cant find any pics (it is just to make up a collection of pics) also there arnt many G S's that have been restored.. Ian

No i haven't seen them Ian

Hi All Has anyone got any 'in service' photos of series 3 GS landies from the 70's and 80's Thanks Ian

Hi All we have just got one of those 'Portable' ? 3 1/2 Kva Onan Generators does anyone know anything about them and has anyone got a copy of the manual ??? Thanks Ian

Thanks for that but i think it must be the one before this type (only black on white) and after seeing this one i am sure it was Portrait not Landscape!! Ian

I could be wrong..... at the time i filled in so many ..but now i cant remember!!!!! Ian

Hi All has anyone got a copy of a work ticket as used by the British Army in the 70's - 80's (If i remember rightly it was Portrair and not Landscape unlike thenewer ones ) Thanks Ian

AH THIS BRINGS BACK SUCH SWEET MEMORIES......... Back in the days (1970's & 1980's) when you could go in the back of a Landie or an MK for miles on end (we used to do Farnham to Sennybridge on a regular basis 6/7 Queens (v)) All the new lads would be sitting on the benches talking and smoking as we (the section commanders and 2ic's were spark out in the worms under the benches).... Not like now.... more than 20 mins and it has to be done in a coach !!!!! They dont know theyr'e born............................... Ian

The 2 we have here in Bodmin were cast about 1999............... Ian

Hi All can you help? we have a late (1971) series 2a Ambulance..... would these have been used in the Gulf ? and if so what was the colour sceme ? and has anyone got any photos ? Thanks Ian

Happy New Year to one and all... My Daughter is expecting in May but still wants to go to events has anyone fitted a baby seat into a 109 FFR series 3 before or has any idea how this could be done ??? Ian Dunn

is it possible to get sighting bits and pieces still? and how was it fastened down in the back of a 109 Ian

HI all Has anyone any info on Wombats??? (not the furry ones!!) What sighting weapon was fitted? any pictures drawings etc also info on fitting into 109 Landie any manuals etc or pics Thanks Ian

Hi Mark Exmoor Trim do all the bits for the Hood and Sticks. Ian

The pictures look good Mark are you going to put a full hood on and get rid of truck cab ? or leave it as it is? and what state was it in when you got it? Ian

Mark The FFR pic i posted is of 66HG56 (not far off yours} it was originaly LHD but changed to RHD on return to UK Ian

The FFR has been to its first show (at last) after almost 2 years.....

Can anyone help? if i remember rightly Back in the 80's the army used to do exercises in Kenya (i could be wrong) what vehicles were used and what were the colours of camo? Ian

Hi All Does anyone know if there is a downloadable manual for the lightweight available on the internet? Thanks Ian

I was in the T A's for 21 years and said to the other half that one day I would get a British Army Sports car (soft top landie) and the FFR ....the year before last i said to my oldest daughter...what do you want for your 21st...and you can guess the rest Ian

here are my two landies 1979 109 GS 10GX40 36 SIGS 1980 109 FFR 66HG56 14 SIGS ( before we did any work)

Right... here goes... the FFR has been of the road for about 4 years (best guess) this last year we have restored it (none of the wiring has been altered and it has always worked(lights etc) last week prior to the MOT we checked everything, lights,indicators,wipers,washers,horn everything was ok (only telltale for trailer was not working (this should only flash once unless there is a cable hooked up). a workshop over the road from us(they train kids for NVQ's etc) took it for the MOT they had just started the MOT when the tester noticed fumes etc comming from the older of the 2 batteries (i dont know what they did next needles to say it failed the mot) lights not bright enough indicators and telltale not working etc i have now put on a new battery (the older one now has only been used a dozen times and that is running the FFR) i should also mention we have had the FFR running (about 2 weeks ago) for 2 hours non stop...the only thing we found was that the reading over the battery terminals when running was only 25 volts (ignition light was glowing very dull) the result is now we have no wiper/washer no indicator telltale(although indicators work) no ignition light at all and only 23v over battery terminals when running everything else works fine starts horn indicators fan lights !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I hope this makes sense Ian and by the way i am down in Cornwall Thanks for any help.

The plot thickens.......................... This morning i checked the reading on the battries whilst it was running and there is nothing comming from the generator !!!! when it was in for the MOT i have been told one of the batteries started fumeing and we have had this problem since Doom and Gloom any more ideas now ????? after a years work this is what i dont need ! Ian

The problems get bigger................................ put in for M O T and failed (not too much) but since then ..................... indicator tell tale light .....................not working ignition light/charge light..................not working wiper/washer.................................not working all above were working but now are not....?? can anyone help Ian

Can anyone help with this one? The 109 FFR that i have been working on (66HG56) is now about to be pre-MOT'd we got it out of the shed and got it running.... BUT......... The ignition light goes dull but wont go out ! and tonight with the lights on it stayed bright... is there a common problem ? or what should i do first? (the L/R has not been used for 2 years) Thanks Ian
