Great War truck Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 Ok. This has gone to the top of my Christmas list. http://www.martinchisholm.com/cars/listings/l0092.shtml Rather nice with quite a pedigree. Has anybody seen one of these before? It is most likely to go to a classic car collector as opposed to a MV collector, but it would be very nice to have. Tim (too) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim, There was book by Bart Vandeveen, called Kaleidoscope of Bedford and Vauxhall Military Vehicles, this has a short chapter on these staff cars with several WW1 photos. I believe Vauxhall had a D-type in their historic collection and when Bedford celebrated their 40th anniversary of their vehicles in military service, it was brought out for a ceremony with the Royal Corps of Transport alongside a QL, RL, MK and TM4-4.

LeeEnfield Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 Very Nice,.......................... :-) :-) As Richard has already said, there is infomation on these cars in Vanderveen's kaleidoscope of Bedford & Vauxhall Military Vehicles. An interesting read, if your Bedford/Vauxhall minded. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Great War truck Posted November 23, 2007 Author Share Posted November 23, 2007 Thats interesting. I know of that book but have never looked at it. I will do so next opportunity. Probably the history associated with this one will inflate the price unrealistically. As Steve just told me, i could have as much fun with a similar aged car (such as a Dodge) for a lot less money.

Tony B Posted November 26, 2007 Share Posted November 26, 2007 Point of interest, is this the car that appeared in the Sailsbury plain scene of the Beatles film Help? It was on TV yesterday, I'm sure its the same one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
