Reference: British WW2 180 Gallon 20-cwt Bowsers restoration

[Robin Craig]

If I am not mistaken I thought there was some info on hmvf about one of these as someone else saved one a year or so back and asked the very same question.

Hi Robin I have posted the 'finds' on HMVF but that was only yesterday & about 4 weeks ago when I saved the first one so there may be 2 of us with these bowsers ? if so I would like to contact the other owner.

Thanks thats a realy good start, there are some differences between my 2 trailers and your photo but now I can see how it works and whats missing !!!!!! cant see me ever finding all those fitting so a lot of fabricating will have to be done, do you have any more photos please ?

Perhaps Barry C can chime in on this since he owns my old 20cwt water bowser...

Bill Mulholland has a restored one as well. I think Grant Bowker sells the Parts List / Manual for it.
