Right first time.. it's 02 SP 27, the one off experimental Antar fitted with the AEC AV1100 dump truck engine, shortly after AEC acquired Thornycroft.
It was rebuilt and rebadged as a "MegaTug" and served on Manchester Airport until it was scrapped. A second though conventional Mk 3 also served at manchester and is now Owned by Brian Bailey. Well done.
I saw dam buster when it came out and I was a kid with no driving licence. Did have an Airfix Matador and a matchbox Antar and trailer... so time wasn,t an issue, but being plane mad from 6 years old, I knew a lanc from a wimpey or Mossie

Comments or info on these incidents welcomed
Oshkosh M911 towing Craven Tasker 28S40 trailer with Nimrod flight Simulator. I think Photgraph taken in Holland as trucks behind are Dutch with Dutch registrations..
AEC Matadors in "The battle of Britain" Am I being picky but surely late summer 1940 was too early for RAF Matadors, and the few they had would have been Flatbeds on Bomber Airfields...
Got the Antar gears sorted. Easy.. don't use them, get some steam engines to drag you around everywhere...much easier to drive that way ( and cheaper!!)
