introduction Hello to all from a newbie

[Meekumslr]

Hello all.

 

My name is Neil Meekums and have joined the site this evening as I have purchased (rightly or wrongly??) a 1956 Fordson Thames ET6 Civil Defence Corps 4 tonner and without support and advice, I may be overwhelmed by things i don't understand.

The vehicle is in showable condition apart from a few things desperately needed and we hope to be at this years War and Peace Show (if its not tooo late to enter).

Also, as the vehicle is almost currently roadworthy, i'd like to take the opportunity to assist and advise other similar owners or persons interested in The CDC (recieved a lot of photos and paperwork with the vehicle) wherever I can.

 

Regards, Neil
