    Now this is not the sort of thing you would want to carry out with a T, it would appear the load has shifted and landed on the ballast body. Painful

    Niels its the FV 1200 prototype artillery tractor i am certain both were cut up back in the 1970s, crying shame as a surviver would have have been ultra rare

    Forrests eh! i have a photo of that some where in use with the fair i will post it when i locate it, if i am correct the pioneer did not venture down to our part of the county but i belive it came down as far as Faversham and maybe ashford. John Forrest always supplied our yearly fair and has done so as far back as i can remember his main tractors in the 1950s were two Mack NM5 and a FWD COE 4x4

    Civilian T model 981 in use by a construction company i believe in Aus, this one has been converted to a semi trailer set up. I cant make out the lettering or the door motif so prehaps one of the guys on the forum from down under can help cheers Les

    I have no idea who owns this Ben Hur with generator but i expect some one will enlighten us, photos taken a few years ago at Beltring

    This one turned up at maidstone based recovery garage Gatwoods in Chatham road back in the 1970s, ex Swiss army it appeared to be in excellent condition and i presume for conversion to a recovery vehicle
  18. les freathy
    Dont remember where i found this pic but a cracking shot of a Explorer and good views of the extended stowage boxes
  19. les freathy
    Correct on that its a 71/2 ton 6 wheel Crane and i think a Cat D6 on board and my data puts it at between 7.5 and 8 tons depending on attachments so the trailer would be capable but on the limit
  20. les freathy
    Great stuff Richard looks like local Maidstone based lorry used to recover her so presume you found her in the county i note the modified wind screen but cant recall seeing this truck out as a recovery in the long past was she a Kent based recovery when in use and finally will you be restoring her back to a transporter or a civvy based as seen cheers Les
