I want to see if there are any details out there as I have no history to aid it's restoration. What I do know is that the vehicle was a White S2 supplied from land rover in 1963. The coachwork is by W Mumford Coachbuilders of Plymouth and is based on a Redwing concept but according to Carmichaels the roof is not theirs and could be an HCB item. The frame work is all coach built out of timber and all internals are missing though I have now aquired a tank and hose one odd feature is the Output panel is angled again non standard for HCB or Carhichaels . I need help with photo of the vehicle in service which may have been RN Dockyard Plymouth as the vehicle was not road registered til 1994 from Portsmouth or a large industrial user where it did not need to go on the public highways. Please let me have any info and I will meet any reproduction costs Thank you Duncan Anderson 180 Cross Hill Ecclesfield Sheffield S35 9WU.

The roof is not an HCB-Angus item so far as I can tell. HCB-Angus Archive

We have ERF 723B, she is a fire tender and I believe ERF 724/5 is still around too.
Ed: you can see the restoration of 723 here from 2024 Shrewsbury steam rally but bodywork looks completely different from the above Land Rover.
