Do you want to keep the photos to preserved vehicles or to include originals from WW2 and WW2 vehicles in very early post war

Good pictures Baz, the one with the CMP utilities is rather special the bodies on these were unique to the far east theatre

Around that date 1978/9 i was working in Folkestone and the old A20 ran right behind our depot the part called Churchill ave, on this goodley day i observed convoys of bofors and the radars towed by Militants coming in from Dover Docks. One large convoy came through about lunchtime so i followed them to Shornecliffe where they were refuelling before moving on this could have been 16th regt returning from Germany to pension off the guns. Plenty of landrovers, RLs and MKs to did i have a camera did i hell one of those days that i had left it at home otherwise i would have had some excellent shots

Ed i think you have the remains of one of these 180 gall water tank trailers, the tank seems to be original but i have reservations about the front draw bar section as it differs in shape to the photos of the original. One or two firms were employed during WW2 to build these including E.C.D so it is possible that draw bar is original but i have seen no photographic evedence to back it up, as you can see a lot of bits to be located for a rebuild

Was that turn over on purpose or did the gun get a bounce on
