    Thank you chaps, your replies much appreciated.

    @webkitlover See here be a good place to continue methinks

    If this is in an earlier post then my apologies, but why were they converted to petrol, a specific purpose? The only thing I can think of is the requirement for one type of fuel, but by that analogy they would all be petrol !

    What would these have been used to carry, I presume they were built for a specific purpose?

    No suspension on a Fordson N. Unless you count the seat spring A Pikey trick apparently, buy for £5, smash out the diff and radiator and weigh in. Not all N's had a phosphor bronze diff though! First time I've seen one like that though, I suspect the radiator is no where to be found either

    Has this been around before? My bad!

    Nothing to do with me whatsoever. I reckon this is a bit rich to buy just for the chassis, but someone may know what it is/was! Just scroll through the pictures then you will see what I mean. May not even be wartime but post war https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Vintage-Railway-Carriage-old-converted-accommodation/202047206384?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649

    How high are they to ridge? to top of walls?

    I expect you have done a bit of google searching but what about here as a starter for ten? There is a nice regimental plaque on the 5th row down, similar to this? https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=THE+LOVAT+SCOUTS+painted+insignia&rlz=1C1GGRV_enGB751GB751&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwiq6_D3xNHcAhXrDMAKHSyYCHAQsAR6BAgBEAE&biw=1256&bih=671#imgrc=4upnGp2wC1USFM:

    Not numbered but see here, make any fault finding easier https://www.autoelectricsupplies.co.uk/page/commonly_used_british_vehicle_wiring_colours

    Not too sure if you can do this method with copper but old school Sparkies used to bend steel conduit using a length of timber with a hole, sized to the conduit, through it. This then had a radius edge put around it so that when bending the tube it wouldn't foul on the former block hole as it is pushed through. Tube is inserted in hole and bent a little then pushed through hole a little and bent a little more and so on until you have the bend you want. Mark where you bend so that any adjustments can be made in the same place.

    Good to see you found your other one. Nut is described in parts book as Part No. 33969-S 1/2"-20 slotted thin nut. Being listed as a standard part, I presume it will be UNF Out of interest does it run in a bush and/or is there a lubricator/grease nipple for it?

    Have you tried Small Ford Spares, they may have what you are looking for as something they have picked up along the way. https://www.smallfordspares.co.uk/ Looked at a 47/48 7V spare parts illustration/list and it appears to be part no. BBE-2824-XB listed as Bolt ( hand brake lever pivot ) There is also a bush as part no. BBE-2823-X. Going by that part no. it predates the 7V by a few years

    Pictures please. See "Fordson Model N 1929-45" and "Fordson Model N Miscellany 1929-45" By Allan T Condie publications

    Paul Becks(as was) 1933 short rad van with large doors, straight bumper and running boards, from the first batch I believe. My source Ford Model Y by Sam Roberts
  18. super6
    I don't think it is a cut down Fordson Y type van body as long rad vans did not have a front bumper or running boards or wind down door glass
  19. super6
    Ford Model Y I reckon, with an 8HP engine (RAC Rating) as built 1932 to 1937. Looks to be a cut down Fordor

    Unfortunately the D Day museum in Southsea, Portsmouth is closed for refurbishment, reopening in the spring of 2018. See here http://www.ddaymuseum.co.uk/

    Almost definitely 240/440v switchgear/control gear. Nearest I could find to this is postwar MEM. It is a similar colour grey and only has two fixings to hold the cover on. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/MEM-1-CSU-L-Stop-Push-Button-Vintage-MADE-in-ENGLAND-Cast-Iron/252759931822?hash=item3ad9aa7bae:g:tNIAAOSwnHZYcS-N

    I managed to work out it was a Fowler FD3 from the track plate design/style and then came across this image when doing a google search https://www.flickr.com/photos/roystonvasey/4496629524

    I take it the 55Kv generator trailer is as rare as rocking horse stuff! Is it similar to the murex one? I cannot find any pictures after a, brief, online search.
  24. super6
    Yep that's the one. In my defence I could only read TERRY! That must be a. little, bit easier than dismantling the spring albeit still not that easy.

    A few questions about both trailers/tools- 1, What is the Admiralty pattern object, and what is it for? 2, What is the unusual, to me, G cramp type object for? 3, What electrical items do they use these trailers/tools to repair? 4. Where do they get their power from? Thanks in advance
