The series II and IIA are difficult to distinguish with only minor cosmetic differances the most significant mechanical change being the introduction of the new 2.25 ltr Diesel engine which after 1967 included a 2.6-litre inline six-cylinder petrol engine . They came in a wide range of body styles and on a SWB 88 inch or LWB 109 inch chassis. This being a 1970 SWB soft top model.
In 1969 (February) home market models had the head lamps moved into the wings and sill panels were redesigned to be shallower a few months later

Little Max wants to fly across the menacing skies when he grows up. He was sitting on his dad's shoulder, staring at the UH-60 Blackhawk, US Army’s utility tactical transport helicopter that took off from MIT's Briggs field during the 150th celebration. Although I could not look int Max's eyes, I knew exactly what he was thinking!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
On April 30, 2011 MIT celebrated her 150th birthday through an institute wide open house. This was the first campus wide open house in over thirty years, and we estimated an attendance around thirty thousands. Through hundreds of fun and fascinating activities, the day showcased exciting new developments in robotics, energy, sustainability, entrepreneurship, arts and music, campus life and beyond. As a class of 2011 (150th class), I fell extremely fortunate to have had the opportunity to experience these remarkable celebrations; celebration of innovation and human curiosity.
I would not exaggerate when I say in my fours years of college life I have never seen so much life and vibrance in campus. In the spirit of the celebrations, I took the day off, kissed goodbye to my already delayed problem sets and went out to capture some glimpses of this remarkable day. Not sure how successful I've been at capturing the essence of the day, but I am making a series from whatever I could shoot. I hope you'll enjoy it!

Introduced in 1948 with a 1.6ltr petrol engine of 50bhp replaced in 1952-3 by a 2.0ltr Siamese bore engine, meaning no water passages between the pistons. Originally on an 80 inch wheelbase, for the 1954 model year saw the 86 inch wheelbase replace the 80 inch and the introduction of a 107 inch wheelbase Pick Up version.
The concept of an all wheel drive go anywhere utility vehicle was the inspiration of Rover chief engineer Maurice Wilkes. This was at a time in post-war Britain when the economy was in a poor state and the motor industry faced rationing of vital steel needed for production and while the idea of Rover launching a new luxury model was unviable. Wilkes saw the need for a lightweight versatile vehicle that would suit the farming community and at the same time could be used on the road, basically something akin to the US Jeep. The prototypes were tested on Wilkes Welsh farm, on the sort of terrain it was intended for, its aluminium body panels achieving the desired weight saving while importantly not using the steel allocation needed for Rover car production.
The first production model was registered on the 21st May 1948, and proved a far greater success than had been envisaged in both the Home and Export markets, the Land Rover sold very well in Britain's overseas colonies, the added bonus being that Government steel rationing were allocated according to export sales, so the aluminium panelled Land Rover paved the way for an increase in steel to build Rover cars.

The Land Rover was conceived by the Rover Company in 1947 during the aftermath of World War II. Maurice Wilks, Rover's chief designer came up with a plan to produce a light agricultural and utility vehicle, of a similar concept to the Willys Jeep used in the war, but with an emphasis on agricultural use. The first prototype was built on a Willys Jeep chassis and used the engine and gearbox out of a Rover P3 saloon car. The bodywork was handmade out of an aluminium/magnesium alloy called Birmabright, to save on steel, which was closely rationed.
Land Rover entered production in 1948, later to be known as the Series 1, and was launched at the 1948 Amsterdam Motor Show. It was designed for farm and light industrial use, with a steel box-section chassis and an aluminium body. Originally the Land Rover was a single model offering, which from 1948 until 1951 used an 80-inch wheel base and a 1.6-litre petrol engine producing around 50 bhp. The four-speed gearbox from the Rover P3 was used, with a new two-speed transfer box. This incorporated an unusual four-wheel-drive system, with a freewheel unit (as used on several Rover cars of the time). This disengaged the front axle from the manual transmission on the overrun, allowing a form of non- permanent 4WD. A ring-pull mechanism in the driver's footwell allowed the freewheel to be locked to provide more traditional 4WD. This was a basic vehicle: tops for the doors and a roof (canvas or metal) were optional extras. In 1950, the lights moved from a position behind the grille to protruding through the grille.
During 1950, the unusual semi-permanent 4WD system was replaced with a more conventional setup, with drive to the front axle being taken through a simple dog clutch. In 1952 and 1953, a larger 2.0-litre petrol engine was fitted. he 1954 model year brought major changes with the original 80 inch wheel base replaced with an 86 inch wheel base and a 107 inch wheelbase, pick up version introduced. September 1955 saw the introduction of a four door station wagon on the 107 wheel base chassis, with seating for up to ten people. The 86-inch station wagon was a three-door, seven-seater. In mid-1956 the wheelbases were extended by 2 inches to 88 inches and 109 inches for the long wheel base chassis. In 1957 a brand new 2.0-litre diesel engine was introduced that, despite the similar capacity, was not related to the petrol engines used.

The SII and the SIIA are very difficult to distinguish. There were some minor cosmetic changes, but the most significant change was under the bonnet in the guise of the new 2.25-litre diesel engine. Body configurations available from the factory ranged from short-wheelbase soft-top to the top-of-the-line five-door station wagon. Also the 2.6-litre straight six petrol engine was introduced for use in the long-wheelbase models in 1967, the larger engine complemented by standard-fit servo-assisted brakes.
This Fire Tender originally saw service at the works of Ever Ready Batteries

traffic congestion is fun when you are not in it. it is common in the philippines for passengers to sit or stand on the entrance steps during peak hour traffic. they still pay the normal fare which is about 20 US cents for 5kms

For all friends and visitors regularly looking at my site, a new load old slides arrived from Europe were they are waiting for the day something to be done with others than a certain decay. This is Antwerp in the sixties with an extra ordinary tram transport clearly taken in overexposure and should have been removed while looking at the harvest after the slide film came back from the lab but I didn't. And now with the joy and toys of the digital ages it can be turned into art. Like it or not, a yesteryear scene and unrepeatable.
