Hi all,

I am a new member, and been looking at your remarks on the 1916 W^D Albion owned by my good sell, i have a collection of early Albions from a 1909 car to the 30s trucks, coach ect eight in all , and just finished the w^d which has all matching numbers chassis, engine, gearbox, caution plate ect , sold new to the war department in 1916, i found it as a fire engine down in Essex some years back and wanted to put it back to W^D, just a few bits to finish off, like putting all the w^d miller lights on and two gallon cans, spade, axe, rear canvas ect.

I have had all the white metal bearings made new , mains and big ends , new piston rings as cast iron pistons all ok and she runs great.

so if you see me at a show and would like a ride !! just ask me.

i am also getting the tow hooks cast, four in all.

I started to restore this on the 2nd September 2012 for Beamish show and used a lot of midnight candles to finish it in time, and it started first time and on the low loader to Beamish , which was a great place to run her in, i call her she but have no name yet? perhaps you could help me, or is it old Bill ???

So if RICK in Australia who i have met and been trying to get in touch ever since he came to my house some years back would like some hooks ? get in touch mate.

Well hope to meet some of you sometime .

Cheers for now
