In early 1971, I was seized with the impulse to own an
ex-military vehicle. Here are some pictures of my Austin Champ. Officially
described as a 1/4-ton 4x4 utility vehicle, it was powered by a Rolls Royce
2.8-litre 4-cylinder motor. It had 5 gears, and a transfer gear-box over the
rear differential which gave 3-selections: forward, neutral (for power
take-off) and reverse - so it had 5-forward, and 5-reverse gears. 
Another view of the driver's side - note the air-intake on the lower
right - the Champ could be fitted with an intake snorkel, the engine being
totally sealed for fording.
