The record
Toy’s third Land Rover carried a Dormobile lifting roof and expedition equipment. This model depicts the closed travelling configuration, with luggage above the cab sun sheet, a bonnet spare and paired front can carriers. The right-hand carrier carries the two-line registration 5751 WD. The supplied brief specifies no Dormobile interior furniture.
The photograph establishes the fittings and tonal contrast but not the exact paint colours; deep bronze green and a light brown roof tarpaulin follow the reviewer’s colour instruction, with exact paint shades representative. Rear roof equipment and small grille badges are included; badge inscriptions are not legible in the reference. The Series IIA 109 identification and 1961 journey are documented in the biographical source. Toy was a British-based Australian-born writer; her expedition destinations are not treated as operator countries. The specific conversion location and build date remain unconfirmed.
