Currently messing about with a friends ex military Series 3. We think it came back to Britain in the 1990s from somewhere in N Africa. It was painted white and looked a bit IFOR like. Unlike the earlier landies the serial numbers don't give a build date....Anyone know how to discover the actual build date of an ex military Landie? Can it be done even?

Davec thanks for replying
Will check tomorrow and let you kow. There is a plate at floor level on the drivers side but no maintainance dates stamped on it. It also has the oil cooler fitted in front of the rad. As it is right hand drive I reckon its of British origin. It has a truck cab now but it originally had a full canvas tilt.

Go to ELMRA and ask, it'll keep em all occupied for a couple of hours.

I think it's what the MOD uses since they went from index cards to computer filing. You can pay £25 to someone at ELMRA and they dig that stuff up for you.
