I don't think this is a suitable project for you either if you wish to remain in the land of the living with you know who!

G'day Serge,

What a great photo! Thanks for posting it. What sort of condition was the truck and trailer in when the person first got it - did it need a full restoration or were they already in good order?

Kind Regards
Lionel

Hello LIONEL

The first show of the tractor was five years ago at the great meeting in NORTH of FRANCE "LE PAS DE CALAIS LIBERE" but without the trailer , then this summer at the same meeting, now with a trailer.
The owner told me that the truck was stored during near 40 years in a shed and every month the previous owner starts the engine. So the new owner done only coat and marking (unhappily there are neither british marking or canadian marking). The trailer is not an original trailer but was largely modified to look like original trailer. I think that the right tank was not original.
Unhappily I have lost the email of the new owner but I hope to meet him again at an other meeting. I join some other pic of the truck.

Best Regards Serge

G'day Cliff I have good eye days and bad eye days - guess it must have been a bad eye day.

I have had my fill of multi state shifts of trucks and related bits and pieces Cliff. I am purely interested in its possible progress in restoration as a history buff.

Kind Regards
Lionel
