Hi Richard

I have been offered some manheim catalogues from the early 2000's is this something we want to collect?

Also on the Army Inter chapter, some of the trailer variants were specific to the trucks.  Am wondering if we should link the truck trailers from the Army Inter section rather than from the main forum area.

Specifically these would be:
1 ton Humber (pig) trailer
3 Ton Horndraulic (dog) trailer.
3 Ton MGB (pig) trailer
8 Ton Haulmark (dog) trailer
15 Ton Freighter tilt bed (pig) trailer
20 Ton Haulmark Plant trailer.
40 Ton Stecco drop neck semi trailer
70 Ton Float
Others not listed inc Freighter semis etc.

Hello Diana,

Not answering for Richard, but i think we should certainly be collecting the old dasfleet and manheim catalogues, i sent some to Richard a few years back.

Post by: Phoenix on January 17, 2013, 05:24:52 PM
On that count you are welcome to answer for me, the auction catalogues can provide a lot of interesting informatio0n, and specific auction dates as the ARN books only list approved for disposal dates normally.

Trailers, maybe we should put a link to the trailers page on the inter chapter, and note on the trailer pages which vehicles or vehicle classes they were intended for.  Trick is  I know little about them!
Title: Re: REMLR.com Website Updates
Post by: Phoenix on February 09, 2013, 02:01:18 PM
09.02.2013 - A small update, the Complete Equipment Schedule page has been updated with a number of workshop vehicle and trailer CES documents.
Title: Re: REMLR.com Website Updates
Post by: Phoenix on February 26, 2013, 02:02:19 PM
26.02.2013 - As some of you may have seen, Australian Frontline Machinery has started selling Land Rovers, Trailers, Unimogs, Macks and other vehicles as a part of the Australian Army's replacement of it's current fleet consisting of some 10,000 vehicles and trailers. The Auctions are online at Greys Online, but there are links on the website. We are trying to keep up with the Auctions and update the database with new information as it comes to hand, but it is a lot of work, so please be patient. Also, if anybody wants to buy me a present, I'll have a Hardtop 4x4 Land Rover, then a 6x6 Ambulance, then maybe a 6x6 GS ;)

20.03.2013 - As some of you may be aware Ross C, the original creator of the REMLR website, has once again come back into the fold and is working on vehicle research. Our particular focus at the moment, apart from the Auctions of Current vehicles by Australian Frontline Machinery, is on Vietnam vehicles. For a while I have been adding information to help separate vehicles that served in Vietnam out of the existing database. And today I have finally finished the pages that interrogate the database in that way. The list of vehicles is only what we know of at the moment, so we know it is incomplete, but we are working towards a finite list of vehicles that served in Vietnam. See the Vietnam ARN page for more details.

Richard or Ross,

In the Vietnam Land Rover database could you double check the cencus code and nomenaclature allocations please ? there appears to be an
 increase in the quantities of " 6005M - Truck, Utility, 1/4 Ton, GS (less hoops, canopy, doors & Tailgate) " compared to what we had before.

This is also contradictory to the normal ARN database view.  eg, 113-300 is listed as 6005M here but just 6005 in the normal ARN database.


oh never mind, after a long week at work I think I'm suffering from Dyslexia  :o

Pete

Do we have any idea who owned the website: http://home.swiftdsl.com.au/~ihg/Vietnam1.html (http://home.swiftdsl.com.au/~ihg/Vietnam1.html) It is mentioned against three vehicles 112-723, 112-756 and 112-789 but the link is now is broken.  One gun buggy, one 88" ambulance, and a 88 Command Recon transferred to the RAAF.

Obviously a trusted resource earlier in REMLR history.  Perhaps Carzee remembers?

    13-04.2012 - The REMLR Inc has been updated with the 2013 AGM Minutes, and updated committee and REMLR positions. The Bush Tucker Man Notes page has also been updated to reflect a link to the new official BTM website.

    12.04.2013 - The Vehicle Markings page has been updated with vehicle and unit markings from Vietnam.

    05.04.2013 - There has been a lot more work on identifying vietnam vehicles done by Ross C and Richard G, the fruits of which can be seen on the Vietnam ARN page. In some variants we are getting quite cloe to the numbers from Michael Cecil's Mud and Dust. The Vehicle Markings page has also been updated..
Title: Re: REMLR.com Website Updates
Post by: Phoenix on May 25, 2013, 11:47:37 AM
25.05.2013 - Given the information appearing with vehicles being Auctioned by Australian Frontline Machinery, we have been adding all vehicles from auctions to our database with as much information as we can. Why? because unlike older paper records that can be kept, digital records used today are just deleted, and it amy be the only chance to capture this information. And because of that, a lot more manufacturers now have entries in the ARN Manufacturers Listings as well as the 200-000 upwards registrations being broken into 200, 202, 207 sections etc like the other ARN's, rather than just 200+
Title: Re: REMLR.com Website Updates
Post by: Phoenix on May 31, 2013, 01:53:14 PM
31.05.2013 - Some additions have been made to the Repair Parts Schedule (RPS) page.  Specifically the Series 3 FFR and Workshop Variants with more to be added soon.

31.05.2013 - I have made a few updates to the Articles page, correcting dates, and adding a couple of extra articles.

The next day or so should yield a bit of an update for the REMLR website.  I have been revamping the navigation and style a bit (nothing dramatic) to improve the site before adding any further information to it. 

The upgrade will be noticeable, and will appear in the next day or so.

Telstra assist!!!  Mmm, may have been because of the domain registration problem which I was just coming here to post about.

In my infinite busyness, I forgot to pay for the domain name which then expired, and then remlr.com pointed to nothing.  website was still here, just REMLR.com did not point to it.  However all should be well now :)

Welcome to 2014, i've finally arrived. There has been a lot of database work etc since my last update as a few auctions at AFM have come and gone and there is a reasonable ammount of work that goes in to recording all the information and saving the photos. The point of today's update is that I have finally started work on pages for each of the variants of the Land Rover 110 Perentie Fleet. We are hoping to have pages for each variant with reference photos and information about their roles and configurations where we have it. Today I have gotten up the 4x4 General Service and 4x4 Fitted For Radio Variants and have added them to the 110 Perentie Index.

Oops, they are beside each other in the list, must have clicked on the wrong one.  I have a photo of the colour and the swatch. 

However I am a little hesitant to post it because of the issue of white balance.  Digital cameras need to calibrate of a 15% neutral grey to get the balance right. Below is a photo that shows how much it can vary it, but I will add it with a caption noting it may not be 100% accurate in the electronic image.

Those were particularly crazy prices I have to say, some people must have a very specific use for them I suppose.

06.06.2014 - Updated the 6 Tropical Trials page as some photos could not be clicked on to see the larger versions. The same problem had been happening on the Army Trials and Timeline page for 1964/65. Some photos from other parts of the REMLR website have been added to the page of photos from John Bamford. About 30 new photos have been added to a page of photos from Neil Abrahams detailing his time at the Tropical Trials Unit.

02.06.2014 - June, is it really June already! Anyway, another addition to the Perentie/Bushranger index, this time the Perentie 6x6 Air Defence variant.

18.06.2014 - It was pointed to me the other day that no Series 3 EMEI's were online currently, so I have rectified that by putting ALL the Series 3 Land Rover EMEI's that we have online. We believe that we have all the EMEI's that were issued for these vehicles, but as always, if you know of more, please let us know. This includes workshop manuals, modification and inspection instructions and a summary of the Modification Plate modifications.

A couple of hours to code up all the census codes, but I think well worth it.  Most of the lists are not complete yet, but as vehicles are auctioned they will fill out.

04.09.2014 - Is it really September already? While the website may appear to have had few updates, the Database behind the ARN pages has constantly been updated. Since the AFM auctions began for the 110 fleet, some 2,200 Land Rovers, Trucks, Trailers and Bikes have been added to the database. Quite a few when you look at it. From memory the number sold around the place when the auctions began was 12,000 vehicles total, so I suppose that means i'm about 1/6th of the way there! On real updates, today I added some photos of two Development vehicles for what became the Perentie 110 to the Project Perentie Trials, Prototype and Development Vehicles page.

December

04.12.2014 - Has it really been 2 months! However the wait has been worth it in one respect. I have updated the Articles page which had a number of broken links to articles. They should all be working now.

The big news is on the RPS (or Repair Parts Scales) page because we have been able to publish a Land Rover parts book from 1999 showing all the parts for the Perentie 4x4 models. You will also notice that we have tried some new security measures on this document to try and avoid people selling the file for profit when it is available here for free. The title page is the most noticeable of these measures. However Land Rover will pursue people trying to make a profit from this document. It's down the bottom of the page and it's manual number is PUBR001, ENJOY!

Quite a few vehicles have been added to the database from the Bushranger build vehicles that were previously missing.
Title: Re: REMLR.com Website Updates
Post by: Phoenix on December 11, 2014, 03:42:33 PM
11.12.2014 - I have done a significant update to many sections of the Database that contain the Bushranger build vehicles, finally separating them form the Perentie build vehicles in the Model columns. Another early preset has come the way of Bushranger 6x6 model owners is the parts book PUBR005 on the RPS page which shows parts specific to the Infantry Carrier, Mortar Carrier and Assault Pioneer models. It does not include the vehicles that these variants are based on.

I forgot to add that the 4x4 parts book has been updated to include some new parts numbers.

12.12.2014 - One more Christmas present for the 6x6 owners, this time the book is PUBR002, the combined parts book for the Perentie 6x6 models which, like the others, can be found on the RPS page.

Hello Pheonix, any chance the ARN lists showing the 6x6s might get filled out a bit any time soon.
ARNs around the numbers 202-189 which is my 6x6 INF Carrier.

Working on catching up on the auctions i've not done yet at the moment.

Until then, this update.

 I have added another page of User Handbooks (also called Technical Manuals) to the Library page of REMLR. I gave also included the new cover page that will be updated on to all existing files to help point people to REMLR that may not know where it came from. Of course the cataloging of information from the auctions has continued on behind the scenes as well so keep an eye on the ARN listings at they automatically update.

Some updates from today, as well as others I had not posted here yet. 

September

20.092017 - Added today is a fascinating document which is the Technical Description for the Perentie 6x6 produced by Land Rover. Find it now on the Perentie Brochures and Documents page. The Perentie Project page has also been updated with the youtube video of these vehicles produced by Land Rover.

07.09.2017 - The last of the Modern ARN Ledgers have been added to that page. However the 25-35 ledger is incomplete and missing many sections. If you have copies of any of these pages please email them to me at webmaster@remlr.com



August

28.08.2017 - Two more of the Modern ARN Ledgers have been uploaded, only one ARN ledger is not yet online.
24.08.2017 - The first two of the documents found with the Modern ARN Ledgers have been put online, namely the ARN Allocations and the book detailing the vehicle Census codes.
22.08.2017 - The auction recording continues, and I have added a new page of informations to the ARN Index page for the Modern ARN Ledgers. I hope to make available the complete ARN books as well as other related documents in the near future in a similar fashion to the AWM website.


March

08.03.2017 - Ok 2017 and this looks pretty bad but I am back in the seat. I have added another page of User Handbooks (also called Technical Manuals) to the Library page of REMLR. I gave also included the new cover page that will be updated on to all existing files to help point people to REMLR that may not know where it came from. Of course the cataloging of information from the auctions has continued on behind the scenes as well so keep an eye on the ARN listings at they automatically update.

I am catching up with the auctions that I was quite behind with so with the help of David I am getting there.

Also in the 101 range of ARN's I have found a stack of No.5's that have not been recorded yet, as well as a heap of workshop trailers too.  They will be added as soon as I have time.

01.03.2018 - Another year another entry. I have updated the Supply Shed with details for Ultimate Fibreglass who are able to manufacture a range of Perentie 4x4 and 6x6 parts. http://remlr.com/supplys.html

Added a page of photos showing 18 LAA Regiment.  http://remlr.com/18LAA.html

Were 18LAA a Reserve unit? Some very dated vehicles for '67-'68: AR150 Inters, No4 trailers with LR hub adapters, US WW2 Bantam trailer.

With the exception of the trailers all of those vehicles were in evidence around Liverpool area in 70/71. The CMF as it was then tended to get hand me downs rather than new vehicles. IMO they were doing well to have F1s (n.b. they are not Mk 5s) and the D400 is a surprise although they were welcome to those.
