A quantity of ex MOD stillages amongst other curious things.

It went through Wellers Auction in Guildford sometime in 1986, good to know it was still in use for a few more years. I'd like to think it's still around somewhere, stored in a barn ready for me to find although reality would suggest it probably disintegrated.

05GX38 was factory black, one of a batch of 3 sold the same day, the other two identical apart from square headlights.
-
No luck finding the drawbar I'm afraid. Where it broke is very rusty so it's been missing a while. I will keep an eye out for it, you never know.
I did find a bad photo of the plate from 2014 but I doubt it's of use...

Just found this rather grainy photo of my much missed 1978 Escort. Bought Jan 84 from BCA at Farnborough for £750. It was unregistered and had the keytag '05 GX 38'. I believe it spent most of it's life at Thatcham. I've always wondered if anyone can explain the curious 3 mirror arrangement? This is as it came from the MOD, there wasn't a mirror on the left door.

Next opportunity I have to go for a mooch in the undergrowth I'll have a look for it but it's unlikely.
-
I did. I thought it was long gone but it resurfaced recently and now unfortunately minus it's drawbar. I suspect it's time has come...
-
Fancy another one?
-
Hope these could be of interest...

Hi, sorry, it's gone.

Sorry about the multiple posts, can't seem to edit the originals.
More military on pages 5 and 6.

Just in case the link doesn't work, Stilltime, farm, page 4, about halfway down.

Thanks for the link. I was thinking airfield tractor perhaps but obviously now missing it's loader.

Massey Ferguson 20F Highway with '90KG98' reg.

Spotted for auction, maybe of interest... https://tsauction.atgportals.net/auctions/8404/ibts10299/lot-details/6fc2bbbc-bb02-4f35-909a-af7300efc88a
If the link doesn't work, Thimbleby and Shorland toy auction, lot 205.

Don't know anything about this, hopefully someone does!

Depending how desperate you get, I know of a Ford D0607 local-ish to you that has a good axle in it, maybe the diff/pinion could be machined to fit perhaps.
-
Several from this seller. No connection.
-
I'm sure I've seen a very similar picture in archives at Farnham Museum, but the background in that picture could be clearly landmarked as being over Farnham.
-
Hadn't thought of that!
It's weird how your brain can see what it wants to see - in this case a vehicle.
-
I think these post war archives are fascinating and found this film. Question is, around 4:50 to 4:55 there's a glimpse of what looks to my warped view of the world like the top of a Land Rover. Obviously isn't - so what could it be?
-
Interesting stuff. Without any guidance I would have thought at that age they were Pos earth. Is there a reason for the neg earth or was that just a 50's/60's thing?
