early british ww2 Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Who know life this Guy Ant? thanks Tom Higgins Hi Tom , Yes instantly recognise the picture as being from the now sadly defunct Grange Caverns Museum in Holywell , North Wales - A place of significant interest as it is where they stored the Bouncing bombs prior to the Dambusters raid on the Dams in Germany . The truck is the 15cwt Guy Quad Ant 4x4 G.S. Truck and I am glad to say it was saved following the closure of the museum and subsequent disposal Sale and didn't go too far finding a new home in the Llandudno area . Unfortunately the years of storage in the dank wet conditions of the caverns hadn't been kind and I believe the truck broke its' back but there was talk of the chap coming across some chassis parts from Pete Gaine. I haven't spoke to the chap who owned it for sometime now but hope it is still safe etc and may one day see it in its' former glory back in one piece !
