that looks a lot like the piece of metal they put under the LH fender to cover brake/clutch pedal area but i think it is considerably longer than the one low range is posting but sure looks similar, coincidence i suppose?

Sorry picture posted upside down. You'll have to stand on your head

Hi @MJL, rekindling this thread for a question...
A friend I'm helping, has a 1971 (mfg 6/70) 88" 2A, delivered 2/72 to Rowland Motors in Seattle, WA for a Ketchikan, Alaska buyer, where it spent 40 yrs. It has the OG canister and evap tank (found thanks to your above pic), etc. I'm curious if you know whether these emissions items were implemented for all late NADA 2A's ...and S3's (ie: 24439373 and later, per your great PDF)? Curiousity stems from wondering if these items were implemented for certain NADA regions, or simply were/became an overall NADA requirement? Thanks

And I was going to suggest it was a remnant from prohibition

well, I can't imagine what that is on a rear wheel well........... if anyone finds out please post it but I'd think it's something for a option tho I can't imagine what.

@Elsa. I'm sorry I don't have much more information about the Fuel Tank Emission Control system. The pdf I posted came from a LR document titled "Land Rover Parts Catalogue Supplement for Series IIA & Series III 88 to U.S.A. Specification" its part # is 606494 and is dated August 1972

So I assume that vehicles imported into Canada (if they were being imported in 1972) were not covered by this
