Richard Farrant Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 There is an auction in France later this month with a WW1 Renault artillery tractor in it.

Niels v Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 https://www.alcopa-auction.fr/voiture-occasion/fwd-4rm/camion-americain-plateau-modele-b-60637 isn't this fed of similar vintage. I wonder what sort of price range the Renault will be ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Farrant Posted September 5, 2017 Author Share Posted September 5, 2017 Any idea what date that is? It's absolutely lovely. In the description it appears to indicate approximate year is 1914 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Great War truck Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 There was a really good article on this Renault in a recent CMV. Well I really enjoyed it, but then I would of course. Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nz2 Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 I like the finish to the larger Renault. The wood on the back of the cab shows the saw cut marks, the bonnet has small dents, the paint is not glossy nor fresh, as if the vehicle has just come out of service. That would be a level of restoration finish I would like to achieve. A remarkable collection all up. I won't be at the auction so it's up to others now. How widespread is the HMV interest in France?
