PostieDave Posted June 12, 2015 Share Posted June 12, 2015 Hi all My name is Dave from the Colchester area of Essex. I recently became the proud owner of a ex Royal Navy QLD. From what we can gather it spent its service life around Chatham as the engine was refurbed there. Although its my first military vehicle I have been around them for a while through reenactment. I have plenty of help and advice as Im in a group of chaps that have long had military vehicles. Having said that none of them has a QL so if there is a QL owner local to me that would be open to letting me measure and photograph their Baby for missing parts or constructing the bits of cab rust has eaten it would be very helpfull. Cheers Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PostieDave Posted June 14, 2015 Author Share Posted June 14, 2015 Thank for the welcomes. Guy I have read your blog intently and printed off many of your pictures for reference. They are strewn about the workshop covered in greasy finger prints. They were most helpfull. Cheers Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
