Very nice photos thanks, I sure wish they would restart the ferry line from DK to UK, so it could feasible to bring vehicles over again.

Thank guys, and the last one looks very scenic

If any one took pictures at this years show, would you feel like sharing them, with the rest of us that could not go? I know that there was some very interesting vehicles this year e.g. a rare Guy Quad Ant.

There has come a loyd carrier for sale in Norway. http://www.milweb.net/webvert/a2046 I know the vehicle was in a very complete condition before the restoration was done. I came very close to buying it my self before the restoration but the wife gave me friendly reminder that I had enough toys already :blush:. I know the seller.

Denmark in the fifties before we had sufficient Diamond T980's

I am just glad to help. I am still pretty sure the other brackets to secure the platform on back are identical, if you ever get hold of a drawing of them please share

Here is two pictures of the one in primer fitted, to the back of a Cab 12 CGT if that sparks any memories :cool2:

these brackets were used for holding down the firing platform or spare tire (there is discussion about which). Most beetle back gun tractors lost their rear body in civilian service, and when then restored people dont have anything to measure from and therefore it doesnt get fitted.

Great that this has found a new home. Its an ex danish civil defense, (Aux fire service), though it might, prior to this, have been used by the army.

super work Guy, keep it up, had any chance to measure the box for the back yet ?

In the liberation pictures of the british moving through Denmark there is a lot of pictures of AEC armoured cars and staghounds as well. But I also found this Guy Armoured Car.

I have been looking through a Danish online archive for pictures of the liberation, and found a couple of interesting vehicles in British service. I did not know that the British had used the m3 75 GMC, and had thought that was obsolete by 45.

I can not take credit for the restoration of the ford, that was done a number of years ago by Anthony Sudds, It holds up very well

http://arkiv.dk/soeg?searchstring=Besættelsen&fra=1940&til=1945&registreringstypegruppe=2 I took liberty of putting in the search term of the occupation and liberation http://arkiv.dk/soeg?searchstring=Befrielsen&fra=1945&til=1946&registreringstypegruppe=2&billeder=true

Some of these urban explores has begun to go a bit to fare, yes it is very interesting to se how Chernobyl looks today but entering eg. The barn of the Becker collection just because it looks unused is in my opinion crossing the border, privat property is property. I would be really crossed

I just have to share this, we where looking through some digital archives, and came a cross a, for us, unseen colour picture of the 251 taken in 45. We have pictures of it in 46 but have never come a cross a war time one until now. it is the one nearest the camera, with the rocket frames on, there are number details on it that enables us to determine that this is the vehicle we restored. The picture is from a local historic archive uploaded to arkiv.dk

The same trick was done on my Ford and it has a small set of britax or Rubbolite indikators front, back and side
