Flat Fender Series?

[ChuckB]

What exactly is this Rover? I thought it was pretty cool looking. I have seen it around a lot lately. I took these pictures while driving with my cell phone. One of them I was going around a roundabout...

Correct air portable......with an added LR swb tropical roof

note the second skin on the roof

With those big wheel wells, I'm surprised that no one has turned a lightweight into a rock buggy. It would seem like an ideal candidate.

Then you could buy the flat fender trailer that goes with it. And you will be whole...

You can almost fit 35's(9.00 16s anyway) on a stock Series- though your steering radius goes to hell and your axles aren't usually up to it.

There have been some rock crawling Lightweights made, Rick Lamb is making one right now, Should be done by the end of the month:

Cool, but I would like to have a 110 myself.... I am more partial to the long wheelbase 4 doors. Too bad LRNA doesn't import them.
