Sean N Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 Looking at the 2005 report on the page Ruxy linked to, they refer to 40 out of a collection of 157 vehicles having been disposed of, but no details are given of what vehicles or where they went to.

paulbrook Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 Quite I am not sure how that fulfils the NAM remit of looking after the collection for good and benefit of the nation... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richard_bray Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Wikipedia says: "The Museum of Army Transport was a museum of British Army vehicles in Beverley, East Riding of Yorkshire, England. It was commercially unsuccessful, going into administration, closed in summer 2003." Its collections are said to have been transferred to the National Army Museum. I stumbled about two photos in the net, where a truck disguised to be an LRDG truck w2as called a Chevrolet WB 30cwt... Now. The early Chevrolets used by the LRDG were not WB but WA. And the truck shown on the pivtures is obviously a Dodge but not a Chevrolet (and also the sand channels are not of the type used in the Desert War). However, I recall the movie "Sea of Sand" where - probably due to lack of Chevrolets- they have used exactly such Dodge trucks as the LRDGs patrol vehicles. Could it be that this truck remains from the movie (although the desert scenes were filmed in Libya)? And - is that truck still on display in UK? Here the photos: just to let you guys know ,that this truck resides in sunny devon in a friends garage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
