Nigel Watsons Carrier book (Vol 1) was recomended in this thread and by others. However before I outlay for the book can anyone confirm that the Loyd is covered in some detail.... I wouldn't want to get it only to find that the Loyd got two pages!

Alastair
I agree with Richard. The Loyd gets very good coverage in Nigels book. You need it.

Jep, Nigel's book(s) is certainly a must; lots of nice Loyd info...also the odd test vehicles and specials.
Congrats on the purchase of the Loyds....read about it on HMVF. It's well worth coming over the channel....Paul Visser and Dirk Leegwater both have a loyd and live very close to eachother. Alex

Holland
Thanks Guys,
I'll take you up on that offer at some point, next year probably as I've used up virtually all of my holiday this year :-) Can anyone answer my question on what radiator was installed in the Loyd. Book ordered from Amazon as a reasonable price.

Correct
Best way to know, is get the part number from a parts book. It may be a special, but probably only because of the side plates. You have a long way to go, before you need the radiator!. The fan has been discussed on here before. I think its special, because it pushes?
