john1950 Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 That is rare what a project. Does it still have the original engine? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt McMahon Posted April 4, 2023 Author Share Posted April 4, 2023 Original running gear. although this is an AEC Hull it is fitted with Leyland E170 series motors . I know of no Matilda's in Australia, if not the world running on AEC packs . Yes Richard, we are making progress, currently doing the suspension ...my goodness ! 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radiomike7 Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 AEC powerpack for comparison. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt McMahon Posted April 17, 2023 Author Share Posted April 17, 2023 What happened to the AEC pack , I remember them trying to sell it quite a few years ago ?.. would be extremely rare . I have only seen one other and it may have been scrapped ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
