antarmike Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 A new tank has been fitted but its origins are fairly obvious on this 854 6x6 Autovac says it is petrol as does the deeper radiator. (Arthur Ingram) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Farrant Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 I thought there was a better photo of this Matador, which is hiding behind a 1917 AEC Y type.....one for Great War Truck. Both AEC's were owned by Jack Henley who ran a transport fleet out of Paddock Wood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Farrant Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 Here is another Matador which I do not think Mike has posted before. It belonged at the time of the photo to Allan Lloyd of Colwall, near Malvern. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N.O.S. Posted April 13, 2008 Author Share Posted April 13, 2008 And here is a dumptruck version - I wasn't old enough to drive it, but I did whip the AEC badge off with a screwdriver and nick a rad tube in the process - still got the badge.

ashley Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 Though slightly off topic:nono: i have just unpacked i book (havn`t a clue where i got it from ) called ...Characters of Wood, Wurlitzer & Wesley by Maurice Sanders which is basically about timber haulage and has many pictures of converted Matadors, Albions,Karriers and a AEC armoured car which had the turret replaced with a 21 foot jib for loading wood and capable of 60 MPH :shocked: Though it is a shame to see how literally the trucks were worked to death:cry: Ashley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
