    Thanks Nick, I had not seen that clip. The one I have seen is an early driver training film. Found under Tracks on cckw. Regards David.

    Video on youtube, search Tracks on cckw. Sorry, I do not know how to upload the video to this thread but I am sure one of you will help. Regards David.

    Hi all, I wonder if anyone has come across tracks that were fitted to Gmc cckw rear bogies, either singly or as a pair. They were also fitted to the front wheels when they were dualled. A set for sale would be ideal but I would settle for a sample, a drawing or information. As they are featured in the Gmc book by Emile Becker, I assume they are WW2. Thanks in advance, David.

    I have 2 Hotchkiss M201's, both have the screened leads as per the photo in the manual, hope this clarifies the problem.

    Looking at the distributor, Top left = 4. Top right = 3. Bottom left = 2. Bottom right = 1. Hope this helps.

    I have a 353 hard cab and a 353 open cab air-portable tipper, you are welcome to look at and measure. I live just outside Inverness beside Loch Ness. Regards David.

    Hi Bill, I thought the truck looked familiar, the give-away was the haulier. I have not seen the truck for a few years but it is a really nice vehicle. Good luck with the paintjob. Regards David.

    Hi Giles, Yes, the eager beaver arrived from Holland in March. Seems to be complete, runs and drives well, hydraulics work, low hours/miles, poor tyres and brakes, obviously been standing for a while ! It should not require a huge amount of work, i hope ! I would have valued antarmike's comments, both before and after purchase but........ Regards David

    Hi Radek, The welbike was on ebay in may 2010. The location was Tasmania. I bought it but sold it to a guy in Holland at the end of last year. As everyone else has been saying it is yet another scam ! These are not the photo's that were on ebay, so possibly it had been advertised elsewhere. Here is a picture of it on my kitchen table just prior to selling. The furry seat cover and homemade petrol tank have been removed. Regards David.

    Jon, the chassis number is on the left above the front spring rear hanger. Hope this helps. David.

    Can anyone on here give me the overall length of an Eager Beaver and the minimum this can be reduced to for shipping. By this i mean removal of fork tines and tow hitch. Thanks.

    Hi Simon, I tried to contact the museum early this month to ask if the EB was still available, i didn't recieve a reply. That was the 3rd EB i have enquired about. Good luck with yours, some photo's would be nice. Lastly, if you, or anyone on HMVF, know of an Eager Beaver Forklift for sale i would be interested.

    Hi Simon, Is this the EB from the Isle of Wight ?

    Hi deadline, I recently bought a wooder Ben Hur trailer and wonder if i can help with sizes ? The tailgate is complete but the upper steelwork is wrong. Hope this helps. Regards David.

    Hi, you will have to be careful when using the engine number as a reference. I have in the past owned an original without xxe engine number (replacement engine ?) and a repro with the xxe engine number (built from original parts including engine, rear wheel etc. ) Very interesting to hear about Welbike UK.

    Hi packman, Please look at ebay, item number 270767706929, this is the winch plate that i bought for my Gmc. As said in an earlier post, Robert does not list Gmc plates in his ebay shop but if you contact him, he will be able to help. Regards David.
  22. David Robertson
    Hi Clive, Glad you liked the plates. Please give Robert my regards. How about a few pic's of your truck with the 7 set, Howard told me that it came up well after blasting. David.

    Hi Dave, The battery on my WC54 has given up the ghost, i would be interested to know more about the gel battery and also the "dummy battery". Regards David.

    Hi Simon, that is a useful looking vehicle. I have not seen them with the artic cab before. Do you know how many were made with cabs ? Have you had it long ? Regards David.

    Hi R Cubed, Have you sourced replacement manifolds yet ? Just a thought as i came across an ad' for some this evening. David.
