Hi All these are the two Fire Tender Land Rovers that I am restoring for the National Brewery Museum in Burton. One is a Series 2a and the other a series 3 the 2a has only covered 20,000 miles while the series 3 has just 10,000 on the clock. I am missing the front bumper on the S3 if any one has one that they can donate to the museum for it I would be most great full. I can collect if your not hundreds of miles away that is lol

I'd love an old fire land rover, always interesting to look at in a vintage rally type show
Can I ask, do you work for the museum (how do you get to do restoration work for it)?

If you can't get a bumper donated for free, paddocks do sell a new galvanised one 564704 | Front bumper

It might be worth putting an ad in the wanted section

You work there in the motoring area. Jeez you guys used to be the Bain of my ex's life. She had to walk the neurotic shire round the site.

I worked in the joinery shop for a few months. I was crap and pretty inexperienced oh and damn fat!
