Mk3iain Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 Hi All Does anyone know of a good source of information on the Militant Mk3, specifically the recovery version. I have thumbed the article in the July 2002 issue of Classic Military hundreds of times over the years and now am not so sure on its accuracy, ie production figures. It states a production total of about 200 up to reg. series 87ET00, I have 88ET12? (ex. Grumpy.) Any info on these wreckers and the AV760 would be much appreciated. I have on order "AEC Lorries in the Post War Years 1945-1979" by Graham Edge. Many thanks in anticipation. (Grumpy, Still after the battery tray! please PM) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antarmike Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 (edited) There is a book that has a section on the militant recovery, but if you are after accuraccy, I wouldn't recommend it. I can't say on here what the book is called or who wrote it because I will get smacked with a cyber ruler over the back of my cyber hands.....

Mk3iain Posted June 2, 2010 Author Share Posted June 2, 2010 I have just today received an AEC book that deals with the post war history. It just mentions the various vehicles in general terms with no real detail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mk3iain Posted June 4, 2010 Author Share Posted June 4, 2010 (edited) Is there a publication/manual dealing with the AV760 in detail? I am looking at removing the TL12 heads and turbo at some stage and returning the truck to standard. I am unsure if the Bosch injector pump and injectors are for turbo or n/a...etc :confused: Edited June 4, 2010 by Mk3iain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
