    I have a few shows coming up, including village fete's etc. I am concerned about someone steeling fuel or contaminating it. The ward has two large tanks and I am looking at how to secure the caps. Can anyone help me please with how they secure their fuel tanks, thanks, Pete

    Hi and Welcome Dave.

    Hi, I enjoyed educating people about the Ward. A lot of people think it's french because of the name. I like to show them round and what things do and it's capabilitys like the strength of the winch's and what she was built for. we have the information board and when I can see them looking I'll chat to them. I can also gain knowledge from the older generation. That's what it's all about.

    I took our Ward to a local village event for our first trip out to test her.

    Thanks. I've googled overloon and there is a lot of pictures. I found a ward but it's not ours.. The area around the exhibits looks very much like what's around ours.

    A long shot I no, but I have found a picture of our Ward Lafrance in a museum on google. Does anyone recognise the place as I'd like to find out some more info on her. thanks.

    That's very interesting, I'll ask Ron if he can shed more light on that. Thanks

    Well done, today I found out it is a heavily modified S type Bedford cab.

    Ron Charlton ran this on Recovery for Welch's Transport of Stapelford. He is in his late 80's now. His son Terry has brought the Ward we have now as a memory for Ron. Now all the old pics are coming out Ron ran it with the original cab for a while and then decided to graft this cab on. I'll try and find out what this cab was off.

    This is Welch's Transport. Ward LaFrance. Ron Charlton had grafted a different cab on for comfort.
