Re: SER1 RHD export ?

[prev] [thread] [next] [Date index for 2004/09/06]

Chasis number R061... is a RHD home(or C.K.D.) (UK) chasis of 80" 1950 stock according to W/S manual. The R actually stands for R.H.D... You will note a L on L.H.D models.

What engine number is the 2ltr (must have been replaced at some stage)? Any idea on the t/fer, g/box or axle numbers etc?
