Welcome aboard buckeye!!!

Thanks Niels, I have seen most of thoe pics before, problem is there are no good pics of the nearside, to see if markings were on there or the rear... Still pulling my hair out!!!! Will send you a pm on the other issue,,,to see if you are available again coming up for a little trip over..

I am getting ready to redo my markings on my Humber Scout, most of the pictures I have seen only have 1) F# on the offside bin. I would assume that it has 2 or 3 on it, but can't find any photo resources or info on proper placement for the F#'s...

Thanks for all the info..

OK, I have been waiting for about a 2 months for some info to ship my Dingo from Poole to the USA. I haven't received my info so I am putting out a request for a shipper/dealer etc that deals in shipping and assist with exporting vehicles. Looking for someone to load my Dingo into a 20 ft container and deal with export paperwork, there also might be several small accessories to go with the shipping, i.e. 80 watt Genny, some Humber spares etc. Lance

Welcome aboard!!!

Still looking for contact info for this owner to find out his chassis number, anyone?

no one??????

Very nice, I like to see modified kits...

Niels, thanks for the info too...

Email sent, cheers....

If you read my post it says that I am sending it to the UK for restoration, it will be going to someone who has restored several other of these vehicles......then it will come to the USA... As for the make, model etc. I am keeping the vehicle and location on the quiet until the deal is done, so I don't have to deal with any backdoor inquiries etc trying to contact the seller to sell it to them... etc....

I am looking at exporting a vehicle (armoured car) out of Denmark and into the UK for restoration and then to the USA. Does anyone know if there are any major issues to forsee on the Danish-UK round? Also I will be looking for a transporation company with EU plates/permits to do the trip...More details to follow... Lance

Does anyone have a contract/build list for the HAC? Did the F numbers correspond to the contract/chassis or body number? Lance

They are suppose to be from the northern Yorkshire area, records were lost over the years that my great grandparents had, and the other half is from Neumunster Germany.. Scroggins and Schluter

Newest additon to the family to go with the 44 Humber Scout. A 42 Daimler Dingo MKII..
