simon king Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Has anybody got a note of the range of two digit -two letter - two digit VRNs applied to Bantam/Willys trailers in the post-war renumbering process. I've got a list for the British built trailers but not for the American ones. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simon king Posted June 24, 2015 Author Share Posted June 24, 2015 here is a starter 81 XE SERIES l do not have time at the moment to look for any more Thanks Wally - the automatic advert facility seems to have mangled the last two digits of the number - is it 81XE01 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wally dugan Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Sorry Simon numbers 81 XE 55 TO 81 XE 84 numbers 81 XE 85 TO 99 XE 99 are a mixture of small trailers 5 cwt 10 cwt 15 cwt and 1 ton 2 wheel trailers these would need to be sorted to find the ones you are interested in 77 XE 80 to 81 XE 54 are listed as 5 cwt 2 wh L/W amphibious Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wally dugan Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 SIMON as you know this post war numbering came in to use in 1949 so the answer is in any number yes l will look through the sales catalogues for the late 50s to mid 60s to see when they began to be released in any number Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
