Good day,
This water trailer was built during WW2 by Oldings. This trailer is missing the filters up the front and a toolbox on the rear similar to the one on the back of blitz water trucks. It has the annoying 7.50 18 Australian trailer rims and tyres. There are a few shown on the AWM site. Just checked water trailers and couldn't find any of this type, but they do show up in the background of other AWM photos. Ken

Thank you Ken, I'll try and track down the photos. So is it a water trailer or fuel trailer?

Yes that's the one, definitely water.
Earlier ones were in the 75XXX ARN range. Ken

Oh excellent. Thanks guys. Guess it's missing quite a bit of the fixtures. Still looks OK though. A good piece.

New 7.50 x18 tyres are available in Australia extremely good quality......not old stock , but new 16 ply road tread at a price.........recently purchased some for a Wiles cooker.
Wheels ,brakes,springs and hubs all look the same as a Wiles cooker........most likely ford wheel bearings Ron |
