Austin 1800 rally cars

Hi Lloyd, Gordon and Terence,
Thank you for your replies to my post.
Lloyd, no unfortunately the Monte had been dropped from the Army rally calender before I started International rallying in 1971, therefore, all my rallying was UK and BAOR.
I indeed did have a very exciting military career, representing the Army in circa 30-40 International rallies.
I shall attach a few photographs of some of my rally vehicles throughout the years, including the awsomely fast Turbocharged Land Rover that was prepared for me by the great Alan Allard, and also some of the Cooper spec Mini that I used as well.
These are some of the photographs used in the book that I have just had published called Fly Army.
Here is the cover;






























Gordon, yes, I have seen the Landcrab site, actually Ken Green,who runs the rally register is a chum of mine, here is ONE of his ex marathon Landcrabs.







Terence,
Yes he has mentioned rallying in the 1800, however, i think he has used most of the BMC/BL products at one time or another.
Kind regards,
Les Dalton.
