Anton, zil131

Hi Wally I assumed my truck had been uprated having the unusual twin rear wheels according to dvla website my trucks revinue weight is 6000kg Thanks for the info anyway cheers Still waiting for logbook back wish I had applied for it on line now

Hi Sean yes I think that is a safe bet I will let you know how I get on Thanks for the info and pictures Wally greatly appreciated Cheers anton

Managed to get a picture of the tag in the glove box lid But number is different to the aluminium tag I found on floor inside the cab???? Also the tag in drivers chassis rail near steering box has rotted off😒

OK thanks 👍

6300lbs Is 2850 kg approx So gvw would be 5 or 6 tonne Cheers anton

Hi Sean The tag inside the glove box lid is brass will take pictures tomorrow Need to check o/s chassis rail near steering box like you said The k9, s are a new thing for me some of the data I've read gives gvw of 4950 But I suppose they where used quite widely and diversly so you may well be right with the over 6 tonne gvw The orange is really orange like a b and q orange definitely not red oxide Cheers anton

Today I have also found a i'd tag riveted to the inside of the glove box lid says quote for spares a brass plaque with 6 digits on but they are different to the chassis tag pictured before??? The plate is missing from left hand chassis rail although you can see where it once was The rear axle looks narrower than normal and the wheel track on rear is only slightly wider than front It's also plated at 6000 kg. Not 4950 like most k9, s according to the dvla information held Also confusingly the original paintwork is orange everywhere underneath the camo green Chassis hubs cab everything orange??? Thanks for the info Cheers anton Cab is also or

OK mate thanks Will do 👍👍

No can't see anything on chassis rails Found a small tag detached lying on floor in cab rusted off but not sure if it's the tag used on this vehicle or whether it's from something else (another vehicle perhaps)

What a shame all the ones pictured have 2 piece windscreens mine as a one piece does rhis make mine a earlier or later model ????? Maybe they have ended up at the big scrap yard in the sky
