    Hi Robert, Have they ditched the Chevrolet C60S Wrecker that used to be at Arborfield? Glad I went and photographed it in detail.

    Thanks Pete, Very good warning. Failures seem to have been in lucky circumstances so far.

    Hi Andy, Hub spanner worked ok then? Are you hoping to get it going for Blindley Heath Show at end of month? John

    Excellent. Am sure Janet and John were also pleased to see it go to a good home.

    and another in close up, from when i was restoring it:

    I dont have the actual measurement to hand, and the trailer is not stored at home. But there are some more photos of the relevant area that you can use to accurately determine the sizes:

    Perfect for someone to transport stationary engines to shows

    One big problem :-( , top leaf of Off Side Spring broken on the edge of the spring saddle. I haven’t stripped the springs so others may be cracked/broken [ATTACH=CONFIG]123009[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]123010[/ATTACH] Richard Richard:I have used, and would recommend Jones Springs in Darlaston. Lots of experience and interested in older vehicles: http://www.jones-springs.co.uk/content/about-jones-springs/

    Dave, A difficult part to photograph. Only one of any use is attached, from 100's of photos I have. Do you have the ratchet plate? I have a short section of chassis rail for sale from a scapped trailer, with plate still attached So perfect to copy and re-use the plate.

    [ATTACH=CONFIG]122780[/ATTACH] ​Good to see with correct rear hitch

    Hi Ian Lots of good original parts on this one. Interesting to see where the side lights had been fitted, as that possibly explains what those vertical steel straps were originally designed for. The trailer was built by Reliance (who had contract this S4833 for 10cwt G/S trailers). Believe that X numbers between 5443370 and 5443469. I have a spare set of trailer wings in very good condition, if you are interested.

    I saw this tank when I went to collect another item I had bought from on Ebay. The ebay seller said he was thinking of about £200 for the complete tank (mounted on an agric trailer chassis). He knows what it is, but would like to see it used again...so may be open to offers. If anyone is interested, please PM me with your contact phone number and I will forward to him.

    Richard, You didnt reply or comment. So I take it you have rear doors and brass instruction plates? These are what I am referring to, and are located in West Norfolk/Suffolk border. Ideally the owner wants to sell whole tank, but you may be able to just buy the doors:

    Hi Richard I know where there is a spare tank, with doors, available for sale in Norfolk. They also has a set of brass instruction plates still fitted to the rear doors. PM me if you are interested and I will put you in touch with the owner. Cheers

    Youtube clip of another Austin engine - presumably sold last summer on Ebay. Clearly from and stationary or trailer mounted application again...with water pump fitted:

    Welcome to the forum Mike

    Keith, There is an repro Airborne Polsten currently on the MVT's Green Sheets being sold by Terry Wall. Dont know if this is similar to the Chevrolet set-up

    189? As someone who subscribed from the launch in June 2001 until earlier this year, when I cancelled subscription as I had finally given up hope of it improving, I will we be looking out for the February 2017 edition. I enjoyed the way Windscreeen changed, and know CMV is different, but good luck with the new role.

    ​They look similar rims but 3-stud on Coventry Climax Fire trailers

  22. cordenj
    or more accurately something like this with hub caps:
  23. cordenj
    Thanks Robert. Yes,that makes sense for a light commercial to have 6-stud hubs. Something like this 1941 PO van:
  24. cordenj
    I've found that the tyre size fits these cars and probably many more: AUSTIN 8, BSA Sports and Scout, FORD 8hp, 10hp, Popular (Anglia), MORRIS Eight, Morgan 4/4, VAUXHALL 10hp, WOLSELEY 8 But would any of these have had this style 6-stud wheel?
  25. cordenj
    Yes, that is what is strange about these wheels. 6 stud for 10 cwt trailers but not cars.......17" dia too, where trailer wheels are 16".
