There have been some serious accidents involving WW2 MVs over the years. There was one in Europe I think where a FGT was being towed which resulted in a fatality. We tend to think just because these things have survived 70 odd years they must be safe when the opposite can be the case.
This does serve as a warning of sorts to show what will happen if the steering box comes into contact with a hard object. Most vehicles of that era had a similar outcome which is why the steering columns were redesigned to avoid this.
Actually I can think of at least one very modified CMP which would not have this outcome - can anyone tell me which one it is?

Wouldn't be a Chev MCP on a C60S chassis from the Newcastle area????
