Winches - GMC vs Diamond T

Any bits of Tri-Master Cab ventilator to hand ?

I got an outer shell of one from Rex Cadman, but I could do with the internal hatch, lever, whatever. Basically any parts you may have spare that would be postable to Scotland.

Hi Gordon,
I had never heard of a tri-master ventilator before so I had to check my maintenance manual.
Is it the roof mounted vent on a closed cab?
you learn something new every day.
Mine and the spare cab I have are open cabs so sorry.

Cheers
Jeff

If you run across one let me know.

That ventilator was used on a range of trucks but was most common on a T.

Drove a friends open cab wrecker for years, liked it, but got a hankering for an M26A1 if the lottery pays off

Jeff,

Would like to see photo of your bumper and be interested in buying it. Unfortunately I will in south america during june but my son Jake will be around if you would like to bring it down. I have a 969a hard cab wrecker but it is missing all the rear body and wrecker gear. I am going to restore it as a cargo body. It is still in Queensland so I haven't got it just yet. I have a new (rebuilt) engine that has just arrived from Sam Winer in the States to pick up next week and a set of tyres on the way. Just on the lookout for any missing parts that I can grab as they come up now rather than later before we get started on the restoration.

Hi Jack,
Wow that will be a rare vehicle here in Oz.
I don't think there is any cargos here?
Where in Qld is it?
It may easier to put it on the truck than carring to down.
Its funny last year I drove to Corowa with a Diamond T front bar.
Sold it to poor old Don Vallis for a wrecker he was restoring.
Have you got any photos of it?
I will get a photo of the bar this weekend.
Cheers
Jeff
