In my spares shed I found this panel, elephant hide so S1 or early 11 I guess..
Any thought where it fits

[diffwhine]

Seat back for a bench seat?

[Matt Reeves]

From a 109" Station Wagon perhaps?

Looks a bit like the panel from between the 2nd row door and the side window right hand side from a 109 SW.

Is this a S11 109 Station Wagon part?

Same part number for 88 and 109 station wagons, quoted this number as in the pictures the material looks like it is grey elephant hide, the part number for the Black vinyl was carried through to series 3 production as well,

Not a great photos but, yes, front of the rear sliding window trim panel. Right hand side 109" or 88" station wagon.

I did wonder why land rover made the upper trim from vinyl wrapped aluminium and the door cards from hardboard that curls up due to moisture or turns to powder.

They were still doing this years later.

I have had to search the world for a rear door card, correct for an '83 One Ten, as the original item has done just as you described!
(There are, of course, plenty of aftermarket look-unlikes available.  )

O/T sorry but looking at your first picture of the behind the seat "bar" if this was fitted to a 88" after the top section of the rear bulkhead was cut away would it allow the front seat backs to be further back than standard giving more room in the front

Exile re 83 110 you have the rare alloy door top front and rear model then?  I though the lower door card on those was a moulded plastic item, or did the factory use some run out bits from the s3?

Craggle, the seat position is further back and sw's have adjustable runners. 

Although sturdy I personally would not chop the tub and trust this in its place.  I think the load needs to be spread over a greater area and the plates and seams allow.  You may find flexing and point loading and fatigue if you did go this way.

Not sure what was done in the 88 carawagon.

The only vehicle I recall that did use this brace was a factory 100 coiler from 1976 that dunsfold had. That had mgb seats.

Side doors were a plastic moulded item,  but the rear load bay door was a hardboard one like series stuff.  Those were used right up until td5.

Moogling is right, but the early rear door card didn't last that long. It changed colour and design over the years as the rear door itself had different features introduced. (For instance rear wash wipe/wiper motor housing/bottom door stay position, etc....)
