Great War truck Posted April 11, 2011 Author Share Posted April 11, 2011 It was the last one on medium vehicles, but strangely they have all disappeared. Most odd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diamond-t-steve Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 Most of the adds in the parts section have gone as well..... Maybe there in the middle of a clearout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pzkpfw-e Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 I have a memory of a post about the value of a chassis like this, bought for £100. The consensus was he'd got it at under scrap value, but it'd need "a bit of work" to restore it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
