Hi All, Just thought I'd give this a stir again. Still looking for pictures of a Daimler Dingo taken in Crook Brothers Yard, near Preston, Lancashire. I recall a few grainy pictures in Wheels and Tracks all those years ago.
Thanks for that, I will certainly give it a go. Though its more the parts listing for the truck I was looking for at the moment. Radio installations are a long way down the road!
regards
Nick
Hi all
I am still looking for a parts list for this truck is there is one out there some where?
Even more unlikely would be a radio body for the same truck? maybe a garden shed tucked away in a quiet corner?
any leads are greatly appreciated
Nick
Hi nick, yes it's quite at home with all the other rust in the shed :-) I did manage to recover a lot of bits of the rear body, probably enough of the various panels to replicate another, it's a shame because the last time I saw it it was in one lump, it was also rustier than i remembered !!
not starting for a long time yet, there are many distractions to keep me busy :-)
As you say however, It is something of a wreck!!! though in its favour the truck is very complete..
regards

I'm rather hoping that some day it might look like that, at the moment its something of a wreck!
It has a quite convincing spare wheel carrier fitted that has been modified to a tow bar, if its not correct then it can all be cut off!!
Hi
I was just reading through this series of postings from a while back an wondered if any more progress was made with the serial numbers?
I have Morris C4 2244 WT 2093 and has assumed the 2244 was a date, obviously this is wrong now by reading the above posts.? What does it mean?
I'm also on the lookout for a parts book if there is one out there?
Am I right in thinking the wireless bodied trucks had an under chassis spare wheel carrier?
What about any documentary materials relating tot he wireless bodies? was there ever a manual?
ever hopeful
Nick
Yes I think so, I'll drop them a line. I remember visiting the auction when ever that was and there were dingo parts amongst the lots, but they vehicle itself had gone by that time. I am told they even had new tyres then!

Hi Fellas
Years ago I remember an add running in Wheels and Tracks for Crook Brothers Near Preston who had a number of WW2 military vehicle to dispose of, I suppose this would be mid 1980's ish. Amongst this lot was a Dingo. Would anyone one here remember it at all, was it ever photographed?
best wishes to all
Nick
