My 1951 Series One Land Rover - Episode 1 in the story of "Her Majesty" 

I watched this video while getting ready to go school, no one knows how happy I was in the morning. Nice video ❤️🥰

Awesome 👏

Dream Land Rover, wish I got interested in them when as you said “a time when ppl were not interested in old Land Rovers”. Beautiful vehicle hope you enjoy it for many more years.

I have an Ex-Canadian Military 1952 LHD Series 1 80", and the wings are exactly the same as all the other Landy's from that time. My immediate thought was either a Minerva or a Lightweight, but those were produced after yours! Great episode and good looking car!

Somewhere around 2005-2008, there was a (non dealer) shop in Indianapolis Indiana (USA) that repaired, restored and I believe sold old Land Rovers. When I was there, they had at least two that stood out because of the bobbed front fenders. I was told they were military. Those I'm sure are long gone, but if you can make, or have contacts with, L.R. enthusiasts in the central Indiana area, they may be able to help you locate the shop owner or someone else that might know of a military model that is for sale. Good luck.

Nice video,i also have this one ..1952 model,gretings from Indonesia

My grandad worked on Series 1 Land Rovers out in Dhekelia, Cyprus in 1963 he drove one and towed a trailer with it they had quite a few out there he was in REME TA.

That’s a cool car! As I said I’m a Land Cruiser guy but these Rovers deserve this kind of love. What a shame what is happening with the newer ones. Keep the good work! I enjoy a lot your videos 👍🏻

Sir, that was a very good experience to watch this video and to know about her majesty. I can see that your father too was a land rover fan. Her majesty is still beautiful. And good luck with finding the spec of the Canadian relative

Thank you, very enjoyable to watch, awesome !!

Fantastic video. However, I am gutted to see that you have not posted any more for the last eight months. I would love to see more about this amazing Series 1 and your other vehicles. 😎😎😎

Absolutely awesome videos. Please keep uploading.

WOW! My Dad also had a Mini Moke and then a Mehari, and also a white 2-door Range Rover!! Also a 3-series Land Rover. Sadly only the Range Rover remains. I’m in the process of restoring it right now. Absolutely love your channel. Looking forward to more content on the new Defender. I’m undecided on whether to get one.

Brilliant Conrad 🙌

Very nice, I do like those "lamps-through" 80" models.

Nice video!! Hope episode 2 arrives soon!

When I saw the strange front wings which were fitted to your series 1 they reminded me of the military lightweights, but don't know about Canadian military spec stuff. Glad you put the original style ones back on, those others really were pretty awful looking lol.

Its a 1952 model (manufactured in late 1951). A simple chassis number search will show this. Thus you have the wrong grille on. Although it looks better.

Very interesting story, hopefully you can find out more about the Canadian spec

First class Conrad, gonna grow subscribers rapido if you continue like you started

The T grille you had before is t g e correct one for your late 51. I have an early 51, very different...lights, door flaps, engine, gearbox all different.

The only Series one with squared off arches were made in Belgium by Minerva. There were not like those on your 'Rover, so these wings remain a mystery.

Desperate to know how you achieved the in car shot at 9.30- your channel will do well- you have a TV background?

Is the best, I like

Those front wings look a lot like what they had on Australian army series II land rovers. Easy to find pictures on the internet.

I have a series 1 here in Canada that was former military. It has factory wings. However, perhaps they were custom for more northern climates to help with snow build up in the inner wing?

I have the same one in left hand drive in USA. I didn't have the indentations on front of fenders like yours show as it has no markers at all. I also have some aluminum molding on the sides but some is missing. I've have it about 30 years and the title was last issued prior to me in 1967. I would sell it or be willing to trade it to someone serious.

Just out of curiosity..... what type of car is underneath the cover in the shed you pick out the frontwings?

Very entertaining how did you find out who the first owner was i am trying to locate the first owner of my 2a d Smith

Last one,, appear to be series II and were called gun buggies. IE had a mounted recoiless rifle on it.

Aussies cut all their wings with a square cut. When I first saw yours, I figured someone was trying to mimic an airportable, albeit very badly.

Conrad! Do some more videos

Hi mate great story. It wasnt a Canadian army land rover it would have been a Australian army land rover. I have one

Where is the review video you mention? I can’t find it.

0:06 What twit fitted your shed doors on upside down ?

Great story. You are lucky to have it. Beautiful Rover!

Course the Canadiens, bless their souls, ran the VW Iltis as well. It certainly was boxy.

Just returned here after seeing identical wings on an 80" Land Rover at the start of a Bergerac episode, albeit hard top and looking like Registration J7347 . See YT healeyrick . Was this the same vehicle ?

The wings look like landrover lightweight wings

How much now do Series One go for?

why 2 different plates j11304 and j4951

The Australian military had series 1's with cut wings like that, I've seen a few photos online.

8:36 I think it was based off of a lightweight Land Rover

Lovely story. Thank you for sharing. Okay, I am three years late. Turn off the background music. It is beyond me why RU-vid content creators think playing background music over their voice is somehow enhancing their videos, it is not, it is distracting. We came to hear you, not to fight background music which quickly becomes extremely annoying and intrusive. Many folks have hearing difficulties, thus while concentrating on your voice they must also concentrate on tuning out the music; frustrating. Your background music ruins an otherwise exceptionally good presentation.

Then there were the Belgium Minervas: www.allisons.org/ll/4/Minerva/LandRover/, which had a square angle wing, that was pretty ugly, although not as ugly as Her Majesty's.

Can't watch a video with the sound out of sync.

IF ANY video has somebody standing in the foreground talking, oh BAD................ I'd like to hear about the item discussed, nut having talking body in front is soooooooo painful. Unless I am already sleepy i tune away immediately

All very interesting but I think using the name "her majesty" is in real bad and horrible taste.
