nz2 Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 It been the influence of the Great War Truck and his brother that brought us to this site. I say us, as restoration here is a father and son effort. Karl has mainly Leylands in his collection, (1916 to 26) with the earliest having a military backgrond. My interests are in Thornycrofts ( 1912 to 27) with one appearing to be early WD issue. Like the Great War Truck collection other makes have turned up as bits and pieces over the years. The objective is to get some military style vehicles going for the centenary events of the Great War.
