Shifting the Tot around
 

The OCMP have had a weekend shifting a few of our trucks so we thought you may like to see a few pictures

first one:

Steve Stone's C15A 12 cab this is another long term project ….arrives at our main workshop after out growing his garage and then his garden..... some people just have gnomes !!

You have all seen Steve's son Luke Stone's 11 F15 before but it looks just too good no to include it here sitting in the sun on a warm English afternoon waiting to go back into it’s parking bay once all the huffing and puffing is complete

My D15 waiting to get onto the trailer to move across the county to another outpost of the OCMP and it's new home alongside the 12 cab LAA and the Dodge WK60 both long term projects

no beer around?
 

Hi Pete !!!

Too bad we missed you at Beltring!
Maybe if you are not there these guys fool around!! (see pic)

Nice pictures, and congrats with the D15 !!

Cheers,

Stefan

Re: no beer around?
 

Hello Stefan

thank you yes I'm very pleased with the D15 it's very original and not been messed about.

You will have seen what happens when I'm not there to look after the OCMP I understand Dirk lost a day as well :eek:

I had intended to try to get to Beltring on the Friday but work just got in the way, hopefully this will be a situation that will not continue for too much longer as a long awaited life change is in the offing

You never know you may see me in the Autumn !!

Best Regards

Pete ;)

Tank
 

That tank reminds me of a Thompson Bros (Bilston) Ltd production!

Tank
 

David

It's a British produced tank so could well be, Steve bought it from a dealer in Belgium but it came from a farm near Dunkirk I believe and still has the original makings visible I'll find a photo.

here's the back of the tank sitting on my D15

Markings are believed to be as follows :

21 Army Group RASC red over green unit Number not clear.

Comments ?

Thompsons?
 

Looks like a Thompson Bros one...I have a photo of a 1940 Canadian Army C15 with a Thompson Bros tank. I think that they produced the tanks for pre-war MCC 15-cwts as well. Anyone else any thoughts please?

That would be very nice!
