Topic: AL71 TACR2 4 door Range Rover conversion by Carmichael

[Allan L]

Well after a recent similar case, here's another one: the base model is not difficult enough for a point but whose conversion was it and what's unusual about it.
Carnut, thanks for reduced size version - my own reduced size one didn't seem to post as smaller as it seems number of "pixels" is more important than their density

Try this one Allan

This one would be a TACR2a 4 door Range Rover conversion by Carmichael

When the official four door version arrived a further order was placed by the Ministry of Defence to be built by Carmichael.

Well done Olavr, that's enough for the point - Carmichael and the two-door to four-door conversion.
For another point there is something worth contrasting with the Scottorn conversion we had a couple of days ago.

Yes, but the heading on the site dealing with the Scottorn said 6x4, but the text itself said 6x6. Confusing

There's this photo of the axles 2 and 3:

I can see from the picture that the Scottorn is a true 6x6.
But on closer reading, the text says it is based on the Range Rover Commando 6x6. This car had two dors, and different companies converted them to 4 doors. This one is a convert to 4 doors.
The Carmichael TACR2a is a 4 door version from the beginning

I think the TACR2 was the four-door conversion on the two-door R/R and the TACR2a was the four-door from the beginning. I got confused, so Olavr's original answer, which was correct apart from that "a" got the point.

Should this one not be moved to SOLVED?

Should this one not be moved to SOLVED?

Yes.
Must have been a reason not to do so which I've long forgotten.
