Being technically restored, this gives the new owner a "blank canvas" to finish it in the colour and markings of choice.

Erik & Niek Baecke in Belgium are the new owners. Read their restoration blog here: https://hmvf.co.uk/topic/46824-1944-...sonnel-putr-2/

Egbert, Alex and myself had the pleasure of visiting the Baecke’s last month. This was the first time I saw a C8A in ex-service condition - impressive. This truck is in very capable hands with father and son, they have restored a large number of Dodges and motorcycles to a very high standard.
