alsfarms Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 Yes Gordon, I do have both front and rear "original" engine mounting cross braces. This version of the four cylinder Locomobile engine was surely the most advanced with , five main bearings, long 6" stroke, full pressure oiling and the trademark manganese bronze crankcase.

Great War truck Posted October 13, 2020 Author Share Posted October 13, 2020 Michael posted this TAR on Facebook which he saw about 25 years ago in France. I wonder if it is the same one? Lots of similarities, the most obvious being the cab. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cel Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 I was given these wheels. The rubber is held onto the rims with a steel band in the center. Outside diameter is about 730mm and width 100mm. The centers have been cut out many years ago. Anyone recognize from what vehicle they might be? Regards Marcel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ted170 Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 Any ideas about that one? Does A.B.C. refer to ABC Motors Limited (All British Company) of Hersham, Surrey? By the way it looks, must be WW1 or older? And from what vehicle, a car or truck? Thanks! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsfarms Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 (edited) Surely an British/European hub mounted Odometer as it is KM and not miles. This is most likely an aftermarket item sold to many manufacturers to be used on a wide variety of trucks or automobiles. What is shown on the mounting flange? Is it mounted with male or female threads? What does the underside look like? Is the trigger mechanism complete and functional? This is a nice piece to mount to someones rig.

Ted170 Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 Thanks for your response, Al. Unfortunately all I have are those two photos, so no idea about the details 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsfarms Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 (edited) Hello Ted, If you get a chance to get close to this odometer, try to get another picture showing the bottom side. If not, we can only be happy that we have seen your pictures. Good Luck... Al Edited October 28, 2020 by alsfarms clarity Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
