Pete gain, has he got an email? How can I get in touch with him rich?

Thank you mate

Bill.

Thanks mate, you said the other day there will be a tag saying Ql then D T and so on? Were do I find that tag, the postwar tag is on the passenger side of the chassis?

And do you no of any Ql bodys around England for sale?

Regards bill.

Thanks rich for sharing the pics, so what do I need for guys exstention to bolt on?

And is it important to have the chassis exstention on? Regards

Bill.

There's probably none left in England, but does any one no of a body that fitted a Ql for sale any were?

Bill.

Thanks for the pictures guy.

Thanks guy! When I start I hope it's as easy as you wrote that message;)

Bill.

Thanks guy don't chuck them! Were are you based?

Are the cabs hard to take of?

Bill.

I would love her to be a QlC articulated version but.......

Hi snort I need 17 or 18 foot lengths mate!! Haha

Thanks rich for the info will look for it when I'm next at are yard, it's a shame about the chassis but it's not a lot of work to cut back, just a shame, sorry about the pictures believe me the ql does look better :wow: it's justly phone and the s*** (British) weather

bill.

We cut the body of today wich was a 5 minute job, ive took some pics im sorry the lorrys looks all doll its this crappy weather!! driving me mad, the only rot i can find is the window brackets and grill, still on the hunt to find some, im suprrisingly shocked, on my Austin k9 there was alot of welding that was needed, this is an 70 year old lorry and so far i can only find the bits that i have said, very happy! ive sheeted her up from cab to the end of the chassis till after christmass, then after i will start to build my workshop to keep her dry and restore her! p.s. can any one tell me why she has to petrol tanks?.

ll .

Thanks guy! I won't cut the chassis at all just the bolts holding the wooden body on

Bill:D.

Thanks Danny!

Have a good christmass to mate and a good year.

Bill.

I'll double check tomorrow but I'm sure its the original one, the old farmer said he's never changed an engine in it

It is the original engine mate

Thanks guy I'll get some more pics on tomorrow, the shame is that the chassis got lengthened by one foot for the body which is on now, but that's not a problem cut the chassis back to how they was and get the prop shaft re-balanced

Bill.

I have a spare head, gear box, to wheels, a box full of engine spares, head gaskets, sump, a spring and loads of little hard to find bits.

I'm over the moon with buying this old Ql and when I get down to restoring her I'll need all you lots help

If the weather ain't pooring down tomorrow I'll take the body of which would make her look a million times better.

Bill .

Thanks mate will try

Bill.

Hi Ajmac, I have all the original number plates and brass tab on the chassis.

Thanks every one I'll try my best to get her on the road, I'll only start on her when my workshops up tho, shouldn't be long tho.

Thanks for the welcome tho every one :cheesy:

I've been under the chassis and there is not any corrosion it looks like the ql would drive by the side of a tractor over the fields and she tractor would shoot the grain or what ever it was picking up in the back of the ql, the floors a moving floor,

I've sheeted the cab up and Monday I will hopefully cut the body of Monday

Bill

Rear section? Do you mean the body guy?
