    Did you also notice the different tread patern front tyres ???

    The trailers are Bartoleti, Leavesley's sold a large quantity of the tractors and trailers in the early nineties which they imported off the Italian army, I will dig out some pictures one day and add to this post.

    Nice to see you got the first one back care of Bowlers, they are just down the road from me. Glad that you have at least heard that Cummins running I did have a good look at it when it was in the shed at Trevors next to my M578. Dont know if you have a good local sandblaster but if you need a recomendation the guy who did the M578 does a really good job. PM me if you want his details. John.

    From what I remember Roy Elvis (Champspares) was very involved with the import of all the Hong Kong Saracens around 20 years ago, hence the ones stored around the Litchfield area, give him a call and Iam sure he will be helpfull. John Riley

    Stormin, did you get the WLF from Ellesmere ? Also we now have a new MVT Area called the Manchester MVT and we meet at the Lancaster Club, Broadway, Failsworth, not far from your location. It would be nice to see you there next meet is Tuesday 9/9/08 at 7.30pm. Sorry to hijack this thread.

    Mike, Having got rid of my ANTAR a few years ago only three months ago did I get rid of the last spares, and amongst them were the last clutch plates, have a word with a well known recovery operator he might do you a good deal ? I bought all 20 of the clutch plates from the Peter Court sale for £10 plus vat ! If you need the intermediate plate Isold that to Dave Weedon. John.

    I can confirm that there are now 9 restorable un-damaged ones left as of todays visit.

    Yes, I bought it of a chap in Kidderminster called Alan who had steam engines. He bought it from a garage in Somerset ? from a man called Mike, all I can recall at the moment. With regards to Cyprus, the Grey one with PSA on it definately came from there because I know the person who repatriated it, Dave from Staffordshire. John Riley

    Sorry, but it can either be a 3.5 inch pin or a 2 inch pin.

    That picture is the yard in Stafordshire, if you end up making a project tractor unit I can help with supplying 3.5 in pin double oscilating coupling and a perfect hydraulic winch to go on one of those S26's, nearly did the same thing last year myself but too many other projects on the go.

    Not wishing to hijack the thread but interested in who the CET track pads are for ? I also have a CET which I may be selling soon, but would like to get in contact with other owners.

    I regularly visit this yard and can confirm that there are about 15 left to chose from.

    The wrecking gear was home made and was never completed. There were never any winches added for the booms. The hydraulics had been connected for those massive rams but the chrome was verry badly pitted, one cylinder was actually "bellowed" as if it had been overloaded. The whole of the wrecking gear got weighed in and the truck is now with Dave Weedon.

    Mike, the Dyson was sold to Andrew Jackson in a deal to get a M747 trailer for my Ward La France posted elswhere on this site. It stood there for a couple of years until David Crouch bought the Cooper Antar, when I mentioned to David my trailer was still their the next time I called in at Kibworth low and behold the Dyson was there! It is now coupled to the Crouch/Cooper Antar. John

    Are you sure it was an M746, they do have an M911 with M747 trailer which I saw a couple of years ago. The M911 is later and far greater production numbers. Only 193 M746's were ever built. USA 125 and Morocco 68. 75 of the USA ones were "sold" to Turkey mid 90's.

    Anybody got a picture of it ?

    Still no reply on who Niel Montgomery is ?
  21. antar
    No it is T.C.Harrisons the JCB Dealer. As a Territory Manager for JCB I am a regular visitor to their offices. When the tank first went missing they were all taking the P saying that I must have nicked it as Iwas the one into MV's.

    M578

    antar replied to antar's topic in Tracked vehicles

    Norman, Yes it is, I can only asume then that you purchased the WLF which was in the shed next to it in many pieces. That will make a nice truck especially with the Cummins engine. I bought the M578 to go on my M746/747 outfit. (see recent post under WLF) John

  24. antar
    No, but I know said well known Comercial Vehicle Recovery operator very well and will ask him where it went. John.
