Austin K5 Gallery

I had this one listed as 'Paul Sutton'

 

Don't know where you trawled that photo up from, it dates back to about 1983 give or take a year. Sadly Paul passed away about 26 years ago. This K5 was restored and I went to a rally in Belgium with him in it, in 1987. After Paul died, it went up north in to Gary Siddle's collection. I came across it again in Normandy in 2004 and belongs to a chap in the South Midlands area.

It had been converted in to a grain tipper, hence the body sits a bit higher in that early photo before restoration took place and I had come across it on a farm in the late 60's, in East Sussex.

Here are some which recently have appared in Norway, (some might be well known to our Norwegian members)

 

Can you tell us more about these K5's?

I heard there are a number for sale in Norway which risk being scrapped if they are not sold....

I'm not interested myself, but I am sure there's someone who would want save them!

I know that the one in last pictures are available if any one was interested, its a guy from the Norwegian military vehicles club that has it.

The others where also available but would take a bit more digging to find the owners but it could be done.

There is also a number of Fordson WOT6's up there.

I will gladly help with establishing a contact, if people are genuinely interested.
