Perry gives an overview of his Series 1 which was an ex snowy mountain hydro scheme (SMHEA). He then takes me for a drive on and offroad. Thank you Perry for taking the time to show me around your Series 1. If you have an ex Snowy Land Rover, let me know and I can check the records as I have collected all the chassis and engine numbers as well as the delivery date for all ex SMHEA LRs from Seri...

Fantastic Landy nothing beats playing in the mud 👍🇦🇺
@@HandcraftedByTerryG thanks Terry, it was fun but did mean it needed a good wash when I got home
How to disguise the oil leaks on your Landrover
LOL, true
Why not just unbolt the roll bar and use side panels that have the seat belt mounting points? You would not need to butcher a hardtop? Also didn’t you put the upper gasket back in? And what about the roof rack mounting fingers that are typically on the roll bar pointing straight up in the are?
@@Benjamin-gp3dl thanks for the comment. I wanted the added protection of the roll bar. If you mean gasket between top of sides and roof, yes it went back in. From memory there were no roof rack mounting fingers pointing straight up, they were rivnuts into the roll bar.
@@LandySmurf thanks for the clarification. I’m looking at purchasing a Perentie I’ve not seen it in person yet. But I’ve been without a 110 for 10 years and trying to make it happen. But also looking to see what things I can do to improve comfort and functionality.
Geez I have some hours up in those things. Did My Army drivers course in one and drove them for years before the 110's came in. Cape York in 1986 and drove one across the Jardine River. Back in the the days when there was no bitumen in the Cape what so ever.
The good ol' days. It is hard to find offroad tracks now. The few that are around are all torn up by big modified 4x4s. The army 110s with the Isuzu would be my favourite all rounder 4x4.
Is it scary lol
the track or driving the landy
10 minutes ago pin me love the video
mongrel things move so fast!
@@Reaper4367 yeah not a big fan of them around the house
A great video mate. I never knew it came with the Isuzu engine in Non-Military guise. Ya learn something every day. Many thanks
😮
A red belly black?
@@shaddijack7087 yep
Will be out as soon as I finish this tune!!! dah dah dee.. dah dah dee
Im out too!
😅😅😅😅😅😅
Slimy little mongrel
Sorry mate missed it complete
No worries, it was a bit of a disaster of a live feed anyway
Ha Ha! An optional extra was a windscreen wiper for the passenger side! The heater was also an optional extra, not that it did anything other than increase the noise level inside the cabin! There was another option when you bought a new series 1 but I can't remember what that was.
Fantastica,bellissima ti invidio, né vorrei una così, complimenti
Looks great and you can never have too many USB. ;)
@@silverute thanks for taking the time to watch and comment
Ol'Smokey is a pretty Landy, but think she's running only on three cylinders... Mmm, tastes like rust 😂😂. Rather say, tastes like Landy oil. That's was a quick way to stuff up your food, no wonder there was no coverage at eating time 😮🤭. Very nice video, bird and froggie sounds, and scenery...
Hi bud could you advise the paint code please.
I will have a look on the weekend
Great video. Thank you.I still have my 1957 88" bought in 1972. A true member of the family now !! Aren't we lucky to own such iconic vehicles.
wow that is a long time, not many would have owned a landy that long. Thanks for taking the time to watch and leave a comment
What a awesome little landy good to see it looking so good cheers
@@noelfrankland9060 thanks for watching
She is a beauty!🚚
@@wallybigwheels8993 sure is, Perry has done a great job in keeping it in such good condition
Nice, One thing to note..... Semi floating was standard on SWB all the way to the end in 1958, full float was an option. (Full float did become standard on 109 pickup and 107 SW late production) My daily driver is a 1958 88" (Nov 1957 build) it's an original semi float rear axle. Came into San Francisco California in December 1958 and spent it's whole life in the Sierra Nevada mountains. Done the Rubicon trail, trips to Moab Utah, it's lived a life. It still looks very original (what's left of the original dove grey paint) though the 2 litre was long gone when I got it, sooooo, I did a super stealthy Chevy LS v8 swap, quiet exhaust, upgraded the gearbox, but kept the semi float (with custom upgraded 32 spline shafts that look totally stock outside). It also has an early Land Rover factory hydraulic winch up front, that gets tested on occasion !! I run the 7.50-16 version of your tyres, too ! It's super quiet and VERY period correct outwardly and the purists don't know it's LS swapped unless they go for a ride. Thanks for sharing your beautiful 88" One last note... get some proper series I scalloped drive flanges for the front hubs, those round series IIA ones grab my eye !
@@timmcooper294 thank you for the information
@@LandySmurf Your 88 has such a cool work history that it should be kept as authentic as possible, and those front drive flanges really show. Another bit of trivia about the semi float axle that I learned by daily driving these since the 1980's is that while Rover had a oil seal INBOARD of the bearing to keep the diff oil away from it, the bearing itself was "shielded type" with no integral seals, just tin dust deflectors and no outer seal..... That's right, the first deep mud or water crossing contaminated the bearing !! No wonder those early "overland expeditions" had bearing problems with the semi float setup ! Modern sealed bearings made for the "big bearing" 9 inch ford axle are a direct fit and cure the issue. Even in my 350 HP LS swapped 1958 model, I had to retain the semi floating axle because I feel the big axle flange is so integral to the original "look" of a series I HaHa!! I'm a machinist, so making identical appearing shafts with much larger spline count was pretty easy, and at 1.400" -32 splines, are much stronger than 24 spline Salisbury. The diff internals are also super stealthy fancy stuff I built.
A very informative video, many thanks. I drove the standard Series 2A briefly during my military service, in 1982 while on a driver's course. I remember thinking that this model had much better torque from it's engine as opposed to the Series 3, which had the gutless engine.
@@johnp1388 thank you for watching and taking the time to comment
The BTM music just mint. cheapest one at the Auction just gone was about $11,100 (still couldn't afford it and I wonder how many they have left)
Thank you for watching and commenting. I grew up watching the BTM, and I love the tune. There could not be many at all left now.
Forget about EVs, luxury soccer mom SUVs, trophy high dollar sports cars. If they only would build these Landys again new today, the world would be in perfect balance!👍
Lovely old Landy. I have a 66 S2A. 88”. Wonderful and full of character.👌👍
The 2As were great, what colour?
@@LandySmurf I believe it is limestone?! Light beige. It is shown on another UA-cam channel. LandyAndy4X4, Castle Air Museum part 2. Towards the end of the video. I bought it last October. It was still being used daily on a cattle ranch in Central California. They are very rare here on the West Coast and most are being gobbled up by people who over restore them for trophy trucks. I appreciate perfect shiny paint jobs, but somehow a few scuffs and bumps suit an old Land Rover. If you check out the video, let me know what you think.👍 Cheers
@@calsurflance5598 is that what they call a NATO spec one. I will have a look at the video, thank you for sharing.
@@LandySmurf I think it’s North American Dollar Area. (Spec)
Have a 1971. 2a pick up owned for 23 years petrol electronic ignition new swivels parabolic springs gas shocks stainless exhaust tail gate plate used in the Cotswolds UK for shooting logging and gentle driving to county shows💥
Talk about being built for a purpose this one is and still doing it. Thanks for the video Landy
Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment
Very nice Landy! They are an iconic vehicle thats for sure🙂👍 Dad had a Series 1 when we lived on the farm back in New Zealand in the early 60s.
Thanks Peter, they sure are an iconic vehicle and I love the stories and connections people have with them
@@LandySmurf We lived on a remote back country Cattle Station in New Zealand. My best memory of that Series 1 was when Dad hit a pig late one night when we were coming home from town. There was Mum and Dad in front and us 3 kids in the back. The land rover did a wheel stand over the pig then crashed back down into the water table beside the road wrecking the steering so it couldn't be driven. We had to walk about 3 miles home in the dark and the rain. Don't think Mum stopped yelling at Dad the whole way home. The pig ran off into the bush.
@@petermcmurtrie I could only imagine the sudden thud from hitting a pig.
Great clip Landy. That car is nearly as old as I am mate😉
Thanks Jack, you guys are from a good era
Well done Landy 👍
Thanks Wicksy
Another great interview Landy. Awesome vehicle 💪🏼 really enjoying watching this latest series mate Keep em coming
Thanks again for the support and taking the time to watch my videos.
Good video fellas! It made me hark back to my ex military years, these vehicles were our bread and butter. Where I was based, they were introduced early in 1989. I've travelled all around Oz in this model and preceding series 3 and 2. The Perentie felt like a Rolls Royce compared to it's predecessors, lol. Thank you for making this video.
Glad you enjoyed it. Thank you for taking the time to watch it and share your experience.
See if you can do more than bucks series tony
Lol, this will be a one parter
"everyone should own a Land Rover at least once in their life" Mother Theresa (possibly)
They are an experience
Great video Landy and awesome vehicle. Thanks for uploading mate !
Thanks for your ongoing support
I am about to do that exact drive, but in reverse. Gympie to Coonamble! though in a D1 ;) Great effort, cheers for sharing.
enjoy, it is actually a nice drive
It was a great weekend!
sure was
Such things are still desirable. Appropriate music of course. Buy fuel,don't prang it and keep going.
Thanks for watching, you are right they are an easy go vehicle that looked after well will go on forever
Is there a 24v FFR version and if there is what is the availability of starter motors and generators for same?
There is a 24v FFR. Starter motors are the same and readily available, I think from memory a Mitsubishi starter motor is the same. The generators are often removed and should be easily attained. Thank you for watching
Bloody missed this sorry mate. Will watch now
All good. One day I will give notice before I do a live feed lol
@@LandySmurf think I was driving through Cooma or somewhere looking for a Bottlo 🤣🤣
Were those seat covers made by Grant in Tamworth New South Wales?
Yes they were. I am not sure if he still does them but they were excellent quality at a decent price
Very relaxing watching water flowing over rocks, we’ve had some decent rain here in wa the past week for the start of winter, been dry for months over here, don’t forget your gumboots going outside
Glad you enjoyed it. There is something about moving water weather it is a creek or the ocean that is calming
Hands up those who had to go to the loo part way through! 🙈😂🙏🦘
lol, I was thinking this when putting it together, it was my aim that it would get someone hehe
Love the aerial footage Nice work 👌🏻
Thanks Mark
