  2. it could be a post war I think called mk 3, I have a haver sack with black metal fittings from 51.
  3. a bit odd picture, the windows seem to be painted as well?
  4. That was a very luckly bloke....... Well I am really looking forward to driving my QL, I sometimes borrow a Chevrolet C60 for som driving practise on the farm. I think its impressive that such simpel lorry could perform like they did, compare to the modern, with a million gears, power assist and massive amounts of power.
  5. here are two more. Yes there are 4 side sections, The sheets are overlapping as far as I remember, but its 3 years since I removed them, so I have to check.
  6. no problem. I can maybe get them in the weekend
  7. Yes the construction of the cab is really odd and complex, with a lot of close area's where water can gather.
  8. Congratulations with the family increasment :-)

  17. We had a similar problem with a tyre for our Humber. We also tried a jack underneath a centurion, the tire was so stuck that the centurion lifted in the suspension. We started cutting it the same way with an angel grinder, bad smell and anoing burnt rubber, but we found it easier to cut it with a large bread knife.
  18. that looks like a really good starting point for the restoration, good luck.
  19. The gearbox, clutch and pressure plate is back on now, I wish I had assembled it before putting the engine back in the chassis it would have been much easier and I wouldnt have scratch so much paint.
  20. Thought it looked like something I knew :cool2:
