  1. Once more a big thank you to John Wardle for taking the time to supply some info. I once asked for info on Daf t244 which he duly supplied. i used this to do drawings to build a recovery vehicle. This truck has has turned out to be a little worker and goes out earning and has indeed nearly paid for its self. Since then i have lost all my drawings (change of computer) but decided due to ill health to build a scale model of the truck. Original info from Mr Wardle has certainly saved me a lot of grief going out in terrible weather to day
  2. totally agree 100% propaganda
  3. i got involved with a guy who was buying polish motor cycles from the 70s with side cars on he was painting these and distress them and selling them as WW11 my part in this was supply transport . I only found out when interview by police in a fraud case that involved a 2.5 ton gmc truck that was transported by me
  4. Sounds like typical spiel to down load a pup on a wary market
  5. 10 ton @ say £200 sounds cheap but alas lots of people think its a good investment but how many will put money where their mouth is.
  6. Basically the truck is as per cast from service. Just rear cross member and rear overhang modified to enable better lifting cap. The recovery equipment was built from 2 new hydraulic winches the rest was made from steel and parts from past builds
  7. got plenty more pics if any ones interested
  8. little ex army T244 working for a living
  9. Long time has past since i was asking for info but truck has done some work currently waiting for some modifications and me getting well enough to do them
  10. Have you looked at it in person? I am only relaying drivers remarks.
  11. Bit of a heads up we recently got involved in moving a large number of old vehicles to an auctioneers in Goole. I did not go my self but one of the lads who went told me the above truck was in dirty but excellent condition. Let me know if any one needs more info
  12. loads of companies will condition for you if you send it to them
  13. Suggest you get sight relevant pages out a workshop manual and follow instruction. RR engine fitted is one of easiest to bleed.
  14. when you mean cant bleed injectors do you mean return to tank (no need) injector pipes it will only spit out when engine is wanging over
  15. All i can suggest is the very dark are shadows. So the three horizontal across the bottom on second pic could be same as horizontal trucks. may be AEC workshops
  16. I thinks this ranks along side make sure you replace your continental quilt and tires before they stop working. Who knows ? ????? You have options if your in the know do whats best. If not make your decisions when the facts are imposed on you
  17. have just been on site forget any army part nos it will will be down to you searching to find one that looks right if i remember right dont give up try again
  18. If you check with Donaldson Filters Hull who supplied as original air filters and casings or after market parts for all uk manufacters of everthing vehicle related.. Have not looked on there site for years but give it ago it will direct you towards an agent who can maybe help.
  19. well if you cant check it out neither can anyone any one else so if you want it it get it bought if not stop posting so as not to be getting other naive people wetting their pants
  20. nearest i can think of is austin westminster 6 potter engine was fit in morris and austin k9 dont know what models prior to that just loked at profile see you have k9 so should be easy to check
