Great War truck Posted November 4, 2017 Author Share Posted November 4, 2017 They were used by the US Army in WW1 but only in very small numbers. Photos of them are very rare. Happy old iron have had this one up for sale for some time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomo.T Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 So the real problem is the SHED is too small ? I note a more than passing resemblance to Latil design, is that just a coincidence? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Citroman Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 Maybe interesting for someone?

Great War truck Posted November 11, 2017 Author Share Posted November 11, 2017 Nice looking tyres. A pity there is no photo of the wheels from end on or of any markings on the tyres. Lots of bids (19) so someone is interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am fairly sure the axles are from low loaders used in the port of Antwerp by a company named 'Hessenatie' but cannot find any pictures. More pics and details in a couple of weeks!

Niels v Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 It appears that the Wheatcroft collection is having an AEC Y type restored at the moment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Great War truck Posted November 23, 2017 Author Share Posted November 23, 2017 Pleased to see it coming along. This is how it looked three owners previously in 2008. This was one of those occasions when an angry man came up to me and said "What are you doing". I gave a long rambling explanation about AEC and he wandered away shaking his head.
