matman41 Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 Can anyone help with any information on a WW2 vehicle contract number V3903, Catalogue Ref. 58 which was for either Austin K30's or K2's?? I think it's from around 1940?? Thanks in advance, Mel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So presumably as it say's '30cwt' that would make them K30's?? Regards Mel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Ashby Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 I think that will the case Mel as the contract group are listed as GS trucks there are other contracts that are clearly listed as 'Ambulance' so I think your contract is all for GS K30's.

Regards Radek Hello Radek, Yes we have just taken delivery of an Austin K30/YK from contract V3903. It seems to be very original but need full restoration. It was sold from the Army in 1946 and has only had 2 owners since then. I will post some pictures later when I have some.
