Tony B Posted February 11, 2009 Posted February 11, 2009 I thought about a dragon, but well I'll settle for plain vanilla Pacific. (Unfortunatley SOMEONE didn'y book hold baggage, so couldn't pocket it :argh:) Quote
antarmike Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 they do look odd without the outer dual wheels fitted! Quote
serge Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 Hello I am a new user of this forum. I send you two pics of the PACIFIC M26 before sending at RETROMOBILE in PARIS last week : A hub and the truck lifted. One of them was in the convoi in SEPTEMBER at meeting "LE PAS DE CALAIS LIBERE". Our club owns a trailer but this one is toolarge and stay at the garage. Regards Serge Quote
Stormin Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 they do look odd without the outer dual wheels fitted! Exactly what I was thinking Mike! Can't think of any reason they'd be used that way. Can't reduce the overall width by very much can it? Quote
serge Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 Hello The two PACIFIC arrived at RETROMOBILE loaded on trailer and with single wheels at the rear. Nevertheless, due to the extra dimension (without the tadem) a special paper should be asked for the travel. With the tadem (double rear wheels) the overflowing is toolarge. I can display a pic with the tandem mounted regards Serge Quote
antarmike Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 Well thanks for the explanation, I hadn't appreciated they had just been unloaded, and had been stripped for transport. Quote
Lord Burley Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 The Cadmans had a M26 Pacfic dragon back in the early 90,s.I dont know if they still have it??. Quote
Snapper Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 I think it's in the museum display at the Hop Farm. Great to have you here Serge. You are most welcome. Please say hello in the Introductions and welcomes board and tell us more about your vehicles and activities in France. MB Quote
ArtistsRifles Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 Don't recall seeing it there Mark.... Must have another look next time we're down there!! Quote
Grasshopper Posted February 28, 2009 Posted February 28, 2009 I think that both Cadmans Pacifics have been sold (armoured and soft skin variants). Quote
