Got any Land Rover service pics ? Wanted some marking on it and we are in Somerset.Love the pics ,especially the Somerset light infantry door decal , only because iam ex 2LI
I’ve a few but you’ll not find any markings as there mostly operational ,all were painted DPM ,what exactly are you looking for
Any FFR ones? - also interested on the markings / badges on the front?
When and Where did you serve?

A few I have collected recently mainly related to my Rover 8 1964 FFR - 93EL00 !
Some lovely pictures there. The following might be of interest to you.
The vehicles EK86, EK09 & DM13 are Aden, the silhouette of the Dhow on a yellow background is middle east. Possibly Gordon Highlanders.
DM13 looks like Argyle and Sutherland Highlanders.
90EL45 looks like 7 Para Royal Horse Artillery
90EL96 is The Green Howards
88EL02 is a Light infantry unit, probably prior to the amalgamation of all light infantry regiments into the LI

93 EL 59 Light infantry
Well spotted Sir
Missed the badge on the door
91EL68 is a fusilier regiment, again probably/possibly amalgamation into RRF
If anyone finds a photo of 93EL00 it would’ve great !!!!
Not 93EL00 BUT a series of pictures of a restored 2a FFR
Nice
@Paulisabout it may be worth your time to look at various regimental associations sites
Not about photos but the person who has some of the old sale catalogues from Ruddington military disposal auctions might be able to help you find when your vehicle was auctioned off, or do you already have that information?
Incidentally 89EL38 is a War Office Controlled unit. Possibly a school type unit like Royal Artillery gunnery school Larkhill

I have the auction details. But little else.
I gave the thread a more appropriate title. It's a good place for Paul to ask questions and updates on restoration progress. Keeping it mainly in one place rather than spread all over the site, helps maintain an easily retrievable history of the restoration.
