A more or less stock Series II Land Rover with electric power. The generator is strapped down in back..................

This was the freak-out moment of the trip! The Lectro-Rover walked up the notorious Dump-Bump barely spinning a tire. There was DEAD silence at first, then a roar from the crowd. The Dump-Bump (long since closed I hear) was a great place for people to hang that liked to see vehicles broken, bent and mutilated. Saw a large number of SWB Jeeps endo backwards here. We figured that because the Lectro-Rover was just well balanced enough that it had enough weight on the front tires to pull it up. My Bum-Vee could do it with difficulty and mainly because it had the heavy diesel up front
