Hi Mikey,
Welcome to the Landyzone and congrats on your SIIa (PHOTOS??!!).
For military info try these guys, they are nice and friendly.
Ex-Military Land Rover Association :: Index
It is the Ex-Military Land Rover Association. They take a bit
of time to get together enough enquiries befor sending them
off but I think they are cheaper than the heritage club
Heritage Motor Centre
who I think can also help you find your military history (but
I am unsure about this).
Not having an overdrive I cant really help but I did read that you
should have an extra lever to engage it. How many levers do
you have? You should have the black gear lever, the red high
/ low lever and a yellow 2x4 / 4x4 up / down lever. the one
that is left should be the overdrive lever. Apparently it can rattle a lot!
Photos would help with the levers and are always nice for an introduction.
