In the UK it’s a dropsied pick up but the prefer its Australian name tryback. They’re quite often aftermarket bodges built to use up a Land Rover that’s had something nasty happen to the back end, but this one’s a proper, genuine chassis cab.
Compared to a standard Land Rover, it’s huge at the back. I’d thought that might it feel unwieldy on the road, but there’s no problem. The weedy but willing two and a quarter diesel makes plenty of clattery diesel noise but pulls us along nicely, and everything her feels ready for work. It known where it wants to go too straight ahead, but once you’ve got over that, it’s quite a nice thing to drive. It’s pleasure to be in , too pretty much as it was in the early 1970s, and in that 70’s colour. What useful thing, too just think how much stuff you could get in it.
