MA118 Australian Land Rover Series II General Service in 1/35 scale

This conversion set is specifically based on the Tamiya Pink Panther but could be used with the Tamiya Land Rover ambulance as well.  The resulting model will be a long wheel (109 inch) base Land Rover as used by Australian Military Forces in South Vietnam.

 For prices please check the catalogue.

This shows the resin parts that will make a General Service Land Rover Series II without canvass tarpaulin as used by Australian Military Forces in South Vietnam.  Parts included but not shown in the image include: 2 jerrycans, handles and holders, a new rear bumper bar, four sets of rear seats (one shown), new rear panel and 4 bar tread and one spare tyre.
The instructions allow two versions to be made of this open topped version.  Version A uses the kit supplied rear panel with tailgate and bumperettes.  Version B provides a new resin rear panel without a tailgate and this version often carried two petrol jerrycans on the rear bumper.

Version A shown

There is not a lot of info on the web on the Military versions of the Australian Series II Land Rover.  The best place to find info is ANZAC Steel articles by Paul Handel.
