Hmmm. Reference to the AEC Vehicles - origins to 1929 by Brian Thackray. Very quick perusal suggests 15557 was a late Y type chassis. More photos? Robert
-
Thanks Clive for a really interesting puzzle. I had thought of Landrover as being a possibility and discounted the idea because no matter which way I worked the plan, I couldn't make it fit. No sandbags in our landy at the farm when I was a kid! Fatigue and my wife finally got me and had to go to bed... Cheers Robert
-
Is it the front of a cletrac-type high speed tracked-vehicle...? Rob
-
Could it be the rear end of a vehicle. I have a slip-on fire unit ... looks a bit like it. But I can't figure the clutch bit??? Unless we're talking about a clutch of something? Bamboozled.

Are A - D containers?
-
I too will store this idea away. Wasn't sure whether the rubber compound was available in Australia and then I discovered you can get it on the ever reliable ebay! Rob

Barking orders...

Looks like a large woofer... for a parade ground? Robert

We all look forward to the blow-by-blow restoration/refurbish/rebuild. Good luck.

heads up: for sale! Bits Parts in Australia
Redherring replied to fesm_ndt's topic in Heads Up: For Sale!
Personally, I like the Trewhella jack. It appears to retain the small bits that often go missing. I could use the pall! -
Thanks Clive for a really interesting conundrum with really interesting science that lasted wayyyy longer than usual... Cheers Robert
-
Perhaps you will have it running when I'm passing by next April...?
-
Is is possible to increase the temperature of cold air, thereby improving the efficiency of combustion...?
-
I awake and discover you still haven't got this one! Anything to do with St Elmo's fire?
-
Why on earth would the germans want to have a cattle prodder protrude out from in front of their vehicles? Robert
-
7 would work in radial format...
-
Very exciting for all of us... look forward to seeing more activity on the 1908...
-
Wizards yes; with a keen sense of humour ...

I'd be interested to see a picture of what you think the DS might have looked like when new. As to history, have you enquired of the old hands at Lake Goldsmith? Perhaps Rob Craddock... I too will watch your progress with interest... Robert

Thought you might be interested in this clearing sale... lots of machinery including bren carrier wheels... http://www.kevinhicksrealestate.com.au/clearing-sale/barooga-57231a7a64172
-
Ben... continue to post photos of that very distinctive block, particularly in Australia - you could try TOMM. There will be parts out there... Good luck. Robert
-
Oo err... warm English beer... I'll be in that.

So Ed, has your friend yet sorted the Maudslay bits from the Knox bits? Any chance of some photos of the separate piles? The restoration looks like a real challenge to me. And I, for one, would love to watch its progress... Robert
-
Tim. Can you upload a sketch of the Knox chassis as it was? I am really struggling to rationalise the description of the chassis on p.13 of W&T #25 with the pictures you have posted. I was intrigued to see the photo of the Keely Bros Maudslay/with Knox rear end on p.15. You can clearly see the brake drum which is also clear in photo no.6 of your postings above. Cheers Robert

What a fascinating piece of machinery. This ... http://americanhistory.si.edu/collections/search/object/nmah_843061 is a restored 3-wheeled version...
