Land Rover IIB Forward Control Fire Engine (ex : Army Fire Service)

Sellers Comments - A 1973 Ex Army Fire Service Fire Appliance. The chassis is a Landrover IIB Forward Control with a 2.6lt 6cylinder in line petrol engine. It has a 2-speed transfer box with selectable 4-wheel drive & a PTO for the fire pump. The bodywork is by HCB Angus & it has a 350 GPM @ 10bar Godiva Pump. It was used in the Salisbury area & after it’s MOD service it was used during the construction of the Channel Tunnel as a first response appliance & then used by a demolition company for dust control. It was then purchased by myself for restoration. I restored this vehicle around 20 years ago (picture # ebay20 on flickr shows its condition just after restoration) but it has stood outside for the last 10, hence the condition of the bulkhead. Some work was done on the chassis 2 years ago & it may need a few more bits doing. Reluctantly, I have decided to let it go. I would much prefer it to go to someone who will restore it as a Fire Appliance. I have other (non-automotive) projects in hand & simply do not have the time to restore it again, although I will assist with it's restoration in any way I can. Apart from that I'm getting too old to clamber on, around & under it ! There are 8 more photos available on ; www.flickr.com/photos/50249857@N08/? which form part of the description. The Good Bits ; Road Tax is Nil Does not require an MOT The indicated miles covered could well be genuine – I have no reason to believe otherwise It Runs – all gears (inc’ Transfer Box & PTO) engage & don’t jump out Fire Pump OK (see “The Bad Bits) It’s Complete (see below) Lumenition Electronic Ignition Brand New Stromberg Carburetor Brand New Electric Fuel Pump Electric Cooling Fan Stainless Steel Exhaust All the gauges (except the fuel) work New Doortops Tyres hold their pressure Virtually all of the Landrover/chassis parts to restore the vehicle are included The Bad Bits ; Fire Pump needs primer casing to be replaced (replacement provided) Bulkhead needs replacing (good sound donor Bulkhead provided) Sheet Metal Welding required to lower “A” Pillars & above Footwell Fuel gauge does not work You need to understand that this vehicle is heavy to drive – it also weighs close to 4.5 ton with a full tank of water & 4 x Firefighters ! IMPORTANT – the Fire Kit IS NOT included, however, if the final sales price reaches or exceeds £1k I will “throw it in”. Also, there are 2 period uniforms, the MOD mechanical log book, an original Landrover Parts manual, a Godiva Firepump manual, 2 new vinyl badges for the cab sides, an original HCB Angus works drawing & a load of other spares. The vehicle is also advertised elsewhere, so I reserve the right to withdraw the vehicle at any time. The vehicle is privately owner by myself & as such is to be considered a private "sold as seen sale". A £100 non-returnable deposite via PayPal will be required from the sucessful bidder. Ballance to be paid either before or at collection which must be within 7 days of the auction completion (unless arranged otherwise). I would consider some form of part exchange, something more manageable like a series Landrover or a 12’ Box trailer (for my other main project).

Land Rover Series 1 109" Fire Engine ex Cheshire Fire Brigade

Welcome to my auction for my 1957 Series 1 LWB Land Rover ex Cheshire County Fire Brigade.

It was first registered on the 1st of March 1957.

It is a 109” LWB Land Rover with a 1997cc petrol engine and standard 4 speed gear box with a hi / low transfer box and 2 and 4 wheel drive etc. 

It is a great useable classic that is MOT and Tax exempt and very cheap to insure (it only costs me £68 a year fully comp for 3,000 miles!)

The rear tub has huge capacity as it is 6’3” long by 5’ wide and can carry 1,500 lbs! 

The doors and windows lock!

I am selling it as I have not used it much recently and am short of space.

It went from the Land Rover factory to David Rosenfield Ltd a Land Rover dealer in Manchester

They supplied it to Cheshire County Fire Brigade as a L4P (light four-wheel-driven pump).

It was originally stationed at Hazel Grove.

It then moved to Stalybridge. I was a specialist Hi Expansion Foam Unit which is quite rare. It was probably converted to this configuration to meet the need for fire fighting at chemical plants in the area.

As a result it is much more useable than other fire engines as it does not have the normal water tank and pump etc so has all the LWB capacity and none of the extra weight of other fire engines.

It left the fire brigade on 14th of May 1975 and was sold at Bradshaws Auction Manchester. 

The previous owner did a lot of research and found all this history along with 8 photos of it in service! It is great to have all this history. I’ve included one of the photos in the listing so you can see the then and now comparison.

It lost it reg number a few years ago and carried reg no SSK504 for a while until very luckily I managed to track down it’s original number and buy it back. 

If you google SSK504 and / or YTU390, quite a lot of history comes up. 

It comes with British Motor Industry Heritage Trust Certificate, correspondence about it's history, photos etc.

It is very original, I believe the engine, gear box etc are original but the engine number was not recorded on the log book / V5 or the British Motor Industry Heritage Trust Certificate so cannot be sure. It looks very similar to how it looked in the photos of it in the Fire Brigade.

It is in great condition for a 58 year old vehicle. It’s speedo only shows 5,725 miles but I do not think this is the original mileage. The chassis is very solid and the bulkhead is in great condition as well. The engine starts easily and runs very well and does not burn to use oil. Everything works as it should even the Winkworth Bell, I am sure it would easily pass an MOT although it is not required as it is MOT exempt. The body work is nice and straight and the paint work is good and looks very well but nether are perfect. It drive well, we drove it to France for the weekend a couple of years ago.
