  1. my buddy is always on the lookout for stuff. he is also willing to sell parts or entire vehicles
  2. [quote=I used to own two WLC's and our Collection is Based in the Ottawa area. do you have any parts left? i am always scrounging.
  3. OK, a couple photos, just a taste, as he is a somewhat private individual. not averse to using metal devices which hurl lead projectiles to protect his property from miscreants. the gun tractor(?) he does not think he will ever get around to doing up. it is a roller, has the driveline still in it as i recall. so odd looking it is cool.
  4. true, many years back i started with $150 half ton load from a guys basement and shed, and just kept collecting bits and basket cases from there.
  5. the third photo is definitely Harley, however it is not a WLA as used by the US forces, or as supplied by them for lend lease, as they had a gun scabbard and ammo box on the front forks. it could be a WLC as they NEVER had a gun scabbard etc, or possibly could be the military harley built for the south africans. note the warm weather clothing. if the photo was clearer to see the front marker light it might help. regards, gerry
  6. i joined this group quite a while back looking for WLC info, but never got around to logging on. i have a WLC i am restoring. i was in my garage having a beer or 2 and was looking at all the stuff i had when i realized i likely had most of a WLC laying around in parts. got it mocked up right now, making sure stuff fits, getting the right parts etc. had a buddy drop by tonight asking if i had any interest in a military generator. turns out guy down the road from me has a really nice OMC / Johnson 300 watt charging set MK 1. wants me to make him an offer. looks like clean oil and fresh gas will have the thing running. was going to offer $100 and see what happens. friend of mine has a small field full of bren carrier carcasses, deuce and a halfs, artillery tractor?, old Dodges etc. plus the toys he has running, including a nice bren carrier. not sure how this post will look when i am done. it is great to see the preservation of these pieces of history. regards, gerry
