Hello every one

[robiejay]

I'm Rob from Australia and I am restoring a mid 20s Berliet CBLH  6 ton truck . It was a fairly complete truck when I got it a couple years ago with only a few bits missing. 

I am currently working on the chassis preparing it for sand blasting and painting and also seeing what I need for the engine to get that back running again .  I need to find a engine fan and it's mount , I will make a water pump as that was missing also but the difficult  part may be the spark control lever and shaft which was also missing. 

I have restoring a couple newer trucks than this one  , a 1950 White Superpower WC 18r

a 1966 Autocar DC7564 

and a 1980 White Road Boss 

so the Berliet is a bit different but a challenge 

I would love hear from anyone with a similar vehicle or someone who has knowledge of these trucks

The truck in the centre is my truck 

At some stage in its life the truck has received the pneumatic tyre upgrade but I have been fortunate to obtain a chassis with solids .

Nice truck, You can also contact de Berliet Foundation in France. But you might know that already of course. They might have a lot of info.

Excellent.

Berliet is a local company to me, as these things go.

Good Luck,

Best Regards,
