I purchased a trailer mounted gen set for the trailer. Now the Genset is up for sale. It is a Coventry Victor 5KVA 50 Hz (CPS) trailer mounted unit part no X2/6115-99-900-5763 or in old money X2/XB/21469. The System has been disassembled to allow removal from the trailer. Engine rotates I have not tried to run the system. It may not have been run for a while. Spares or repair. Buyer needs to collect from the Plymouth area. Cash on collection would be good.

Clive many thanks, BN has I think been upgraded by the Army with the generator as it has mod plates and NSN on the front end. I think I should move this thread to the relevant section out of the introductions. I will post some pictures of both in the next couple of days. Once again many thanks Ian

Hi The name is Ian I am ex Military joining as an Apprentice Radio Tech Royal Signals at Harrogate in April 1960. I left in 1985 as an REME Artificer Tels. I have had an interest in Military vehicles in particular those with B series engines and others of that vintage I currently have a Austin Champ, needs lots of work, 94BE94 and 2 Trailers 78BJ51 and 81BN68. Both need some work.

Clive many thanks it would be nice to know what both trailers were configured as. 7851 has two angle sections welded 2/3rds the way front to rear between the chassis legs?
-
Clive any idea who made the 3 1/2 was it a Coventry Climax?
-
Info I have on the trailer is Con 6/Veh/8878 Chassis No TR392/1274 type 2T10CW1/GT FV2301A MK1 VRN 78BJ51 As for the other 81BN68 no data plate but there is a Repair plate It also has flat sides no pressings in the body panels!

Clive 78BJ51 has nothing not even the tub. Any idea what the 31/2 KVA was?
-
Thanks Yes that was my next quest, it (81BN68) is fitted with a Coventry Victor AC4 engine and 5KVA generator no idea what it was used for. tac sign on rear has SCOT/271. Tub requires some work, no floor, 78BJ51 has only, well nearly, a chassis it had been converted with a HiCap body by some, and I will leave that blank. Only had the pair a couple of weeks
