Many thanks Radek

Hi boys,

 

Sorry. I thought everyone would know about Mike Kelly's site in Oz, as we're all MCC people so I hadn't mentioned it...... The drawings are really good but they don't show the floor or the front end, however I think the info is brilliant and concise, and must have taken ages to produce. I have spoken to Mike and he asked for info that's missing and I can supply floor layout and dimensions so he can update the site and make that part more complete.

 

Jules, I'll measure it up over the wekend to give you a starting point.

 

If anyone with a GS body can look for me to see if their body fits onto the chassis rails with little blocks to hold it off, or if it sits on two cross rails. This is the missing piece of the jigsaw and I think it's the later suggestion that's correct. It stands to reason as every most chassis designs have a higher point over the rear axle, so the wooden body rails would have to be kacked up fir it to sit level. This is the design on the CS8 I have access to, but designs varied for truck to truck. For example the MW front of the body is the rear of the cab too. On the CS8/C4/C8 there's a gap for tool bins etc. I think the Morris body is wider by about 7" too.

 

Radek, the 30cwt body construction uses the same design and plank sizes, but obviously it's bigger. CHecking around, it seems most of the surviving 3 tonners have steel bodies - no surprise there. I could measure up my mate's OY metal body to give you a start if you wanted....

Hi John,

it isn´t small. :-) Only the lory in the rear is bigger. It is K3, but militarized civilian, or early tipy of military lory. Another grill, big front lights, only a few side eniginy ventilators, civilian wheals.

I have in my K30 on the engine cover in cab on the passenger site lubrigation chart with this wheals (double in the rear and slim in the frotn) Standart military wheal 10,5-16 with combat rims came during the ww2.

Hi John,

Here is postal adress:

Justin "Pips" Potterton,

Old School House,

Hedgehog Bridge,

Brothertoft,

Boston

Lincolnshire U.K.

Many thanks for any information.

My friend has hired transport company, but the lorry was to small for pick up the Bedford (fail of company) Theyr took only parts, what are on the picture, and leave the Bedford for next time. After then brake the contact with seller. :oops:

Radek

I guess from your comments that your friend has a postal address for this Mr Potterton.? As of October 2007 there is a Mr & Mrs Potterton still registered as living in Brothertoft, as evidenced from a rejected planning application.

 

http://meetings.boston.gov.uk/media/1/files/Delegated%20decision%20list%20from%20-%2028.09.07%20-%2026.10.2007.DOC

 

reference B/07/0528

 

Should this be the same person/address, if it is the case that your friend has done all the things you say then the next step would seem to be informing the UK police regarding what seems to be an alleged fraud of some description. You should be able to get an address for Boston Police, Lincolnshire from an internet search.

 

Leaving it for a year and a half before chasing it up does seem to be a bit of a delay though and might not help.

 

Hope this helps, best of luck.

 

Hi Guys,

I am looking for help. My friend "Higgins" has bought Bedford MW 1943 1,5 years ago.

The seller Mr. Justin "Pips" Potterton sold this Bedford and a few parts to my friend for 1000GBP, but friends has god only parts and the rolling chassise not. No answers on emails, recorded letter and phones. Know somebody any infortion about Mr. Potterton from Brothertoft or this Bedford?

Please let me know or direct to my friend Higgins higgins@seznam.cz

Many thanks Radek
