There's thirteen planes, and I can count thirteen truck windscreens - are some of them not Tructors ?

 

Didn't it get a mention in the thread that there were only sixteen made? If so that is 13/16th or production right there.

 

The location of that shot is the old Glasgow airport at Moorpark / Hillington / Renfrew, just across from the Renfrew Rolls Royce plant where my mother and aunt worked during the war on Merlin engine stuff. If you were standing on that spot now you would be dodgeing traffic in the fast lane of the M8 :-D

The end trucks looked different but I think they have a camo net or something over the front, there are indeed 13 Tructors, a great pic

Nick,

I think a couple at the far end are Fordson 7V / Allan Taylor Tructor conversions. From memory there is a pic of one in Bart's original WW2 directory.

regards, Richard
