What is it??

Fuel pump from the cabinet of a 900gall RAF tanker

Its out of my 900gall fuel tanker

im told its used for aircraft hydraulic systems,gun turrets,landing gear etc

   ive recently acquired this ww2 air ministry aircraft hydraulic tester,the frame is in original condition,the engine runs but has been repainted some years ago which now has nice patina on it,im planning on putting it back into its frame to make it complete,therefore I was enquiring if anyone has any knowledge or info relating to it as I seem,so far to be drawing a blank I'm assuming its mite be a rare item as I'm told a lot that were purchased at mod sales were bought just for the engine (petter),greatfull for any help,thanks.

p.s you can still buy the tyres new,ive priced some up for one of mine,they £48 each...

Hello,thats the one off ebay,glad someones saved it,shame its abit chopped up but shouldn't be a problem if your handy with a welder,im currently doing 2 C types I'm just at the clean up n paint stage!

Thankyou for your help re the colour I will follow up your suggestions.

I'm wanting to paint my bomb trolleys & the shade of green I'm wanting to do them in is the same as the spitfire camo scheme,the colours I have seen are just referred to ad "dark earth &" dark green but it a lighter green in reality,is there a code for this colour &who supply's it,thankyou

im jus starting to think about paint for my bomb trolleys I'm doing at present & was wanting advice on where to get it from,ive got my mind set on 2 colours but want to order the correct colour as its abit mind boggleing with all the different variations.

My C type bomb trolley has the remains of a "makers"? plate on it,does anyone know what was on it or who made them or a plate that I can get a copy of to get some made

Please excuse my ignorance but is that a Zwicky bowser?

Paul.

hi paul,im not sure if u received my reply sometime ago but yes the pump would have been zwicky,the engine (lister A type),the tanks prob by butterfields or brockhouse & the proper chassis by eagle or brockhouse,leafspring or torsion bar suspension.

been remaking the steering tiebar & remade towbar handles,ive had to burn off most of the wheelnuts as they badly corroded,need some hubcaps for this & another trolley I have if anyone has any?

This is the 450gall bowser ive finally got home after 2years of trying,its in good cond ive got a spare cabinet to go back on the front as its been cut off n used as a farm fuel bowser,the chassis its sat on has been 2parts of the bigger type trolleys (used for the tall boys etc) welded together,i have a brockhouse chassis for it to go on,ive washed it off n sprayed it with oil which brought out some traces of the wartime colours.

got started on remaking the steering tiebar n added handles to the drawbar,im having to burn off most of the wheel nuts as badly corroded,need some hubcaps for this one if anyone has any? this is the 1st one I bought & has been in storage until now hopefully I will get it done along with my latest one ready for show season.
