Perry's Land Rover Series 1 1957 88inch Ex Snowy Mountain
Ойын-сауық
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 Series ones onwards.
If you have a Land Rover or 2 and would like me to do a video on them, please reach out and we can make it happen. I am based in NSW.

@@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.

@@LandySmurf I believe it is limestone?! Light beige. It is shown on another KZread 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
