  1. Can anyone confirm the wiring relating to a 1944 autocar? There are two 6v batteries - independently connected to the vehicle which is something I've not seen on a WW2 American vehicle. A wiring diagram would be great if anyone has one? Thankyou Peter
  2. ..maybe.... Is this what you're after? regards Peter
  3. Hi - I've road wheels, tracks, a small number of buffers, drivers hatch, smoke dischargers, head lights, filler pipe and cap (for rear deck of 434) - and then down to misc brackets ie fire extinguisher brackets, rear stowage compartment metal drawers (434) fold down decks for 434. I've also one or two windscreens / canvas hood, exhaust silencer, glass lenses,
  4. Thanks for the input so far guys. I downloaded some of the base records for Aberporth but its mainly specific to that base and doesnt provide any information about postings to other places as far as I can read. I attach a few photos of my Grandad and interestingly a photo in Liege in 1945 where he names a few of the other men on the reverse of the photo. My grandad is back right in the photo.
  5. My late Grandfather was based as a fitter / mechanic at RAF Aberporth between 1939 and 1945, including some post in Belgium (Liege) and Germany (Wuppertal), that I am aware of. I have obtained his military record but this does not tell me when or where he was stationed in Europe. His record gives reference to 1609 TT / 1609 Flight, and 2007 Wg I'm looking for advice on the best avenues to pursue in this regards Thank you in advance for any guidance. Regards Peter
