GOOD HOME WANTED FOR RETIRED FILM STAR !!!
HUE 706
This is a rigid four - wheel drive army truck that featured with John Lennon in ' How We Won The War' ...
This Second World war vehicle was manufactured in Canada and shipped to the U.K for assembly in 1942.
The vehicle saw service in the North African Desert Campaign and was later used as a farm vehicle whence it enjoyed a brief film history ...
In the 1950's the truck was fitted with a four-litre Ford 4D diesel engine.. then in roughly 1994 it underwent further restoration by one of the previous owners but since then it has been laid up ..
This was one of the first ford trucks with hydraulic brakes ..
MOT & TAX EXEMPT
We have the log book for the truck .. a hand written letter about its history from a previous owner and a newspaper cutting with picture from the 'Diss Express' from when it was sold at auction in March 1997..
Since it was sold at auction it has not moved very far and of course has deteriorated slightly .. But it would not take too much to restore her to her former beauty ..
Her two front tyres are flat .. but we do have spares ( as you can see in the back ) ..
The bonnet for the engine is in the back ..
It also needs a battery .. but .. its a goer !! She still runs !! ..
Great for any ex military vehicle enthusiast or ' John Lennon ' / ' Beatles ' memorabilia fan .. ( or a bit of both !! )
I have been also informed that the number plate alone is worth quite a bit, but have never wanted to separate it from the vehicle ..
Reluctant sale .. as moving house .. CASH ON COLLECTION PLEASE .. COLLECTION FROM NEAR THETFORD IN NORFOLK
