tacman Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 Hi everyone, I am in the process of restoring a 1974 Land Rover ex-RAF Truck Airfield Crash Rescue 1 fire vehicles other wise known as a TACR1. I am doing it out as it was during the cold war years. I am an ex-RAF fireman, so you could say this is a bit of nostalgia for me. I used to drive one of these in the late 70's. I am doing my best to restore it as close to the way it was but it is hard getting the kit. Some of the simplest things seem to be the hardest to find like a blue 25 lb dry powder fire extinguisher with the brass wheel and plunger, and the twin blue lights for the front. The list goes on. Can't wate till the weather improves Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
