Surely LAAT's are indeed not rare, relatively speaking of course. I quite like them. In Holland the 3-tonner GS's seem to dominate.

Here's another survivor of the breed up for grabs in the UK: F60s LAAT 1944 For Restoration

Extensivly prepared for use, not just to sell. All oils and fluids changed. New; hoses, fanbelts, g/box bearings, seals, flexi brake pipes, all lights, battery, M/cylinder. Very good tyres, recent fuel tanks, seats, completely rewired, fully greased, cab near perfect, Smooth V8 reputed 30 miles since rebuild. Complete with unused coffin. For the enthusiast there is the opportunity to drive and enjoy this CMP and at the same time be financially rewarded by 'alternative funeral' directors.
Worth thinking about..........

I just hope none of us ever need it

WW2 1943 -46 Chevrolet C 15 A, Army truck, 4x4
Sale price: £3,900.00 make an offer
Last update: 13.10.2013
Car location: Bury, United Kingdom
Sale type: Fixed price listing

1943 - 46 WW2 Chevrolet Army truck. Built originally for the British Army. it is R/H/D. as you can see its in original condition and could either be used as it is or re-painted etc to smarten it up. it was fitted with a Perkins diesel engine approx. 50 years ago. the engine is unbelievable. it starts instantly every time. the cab really needs some repairs. new metal letting in etc. but it has been in use this year as it is. it is mot and tax exempt.
I am the first to admit that I know nothing about these vehicles. im not even sure of the model (maybe someone could tell me) it looks loads of fun though and would be great for taking to rallies/re-enactments etc etc (if you are quick there is a big one at Pickering in Yorkshire this weekend)
The truck has a huge winch mounted to the chassis near the rear axle (see pics) It also still has the machine gun turret visible on the roof. the interior pic shows the engine cover missing but we do have that
Runs and drives. we can deliver at extra cost. comes with v5. registration number is DJU 354 and the current tax disc is here.
The v5 states a registration date of 24/06/1946 but the previous owner told me it was manufactured in 1943.
The winning bidder must pay a £250 deposit immediately after the auction ends. the balance must then be received within 5 days.
No bidders with less than 10 positive feedback unless we are contacted first either by phone 07971-845395 or by email. failure to do this will result in bids being cancelled
Edit: I now see the ad is two years old...

Thanks gents. reason i ask is that this was the vehicle i part owned with a work colleague , friendship went south and vehicle had to be shifted from work.
I was told by a mutual friend he said he took a loss, which meant he sold it for less than £2500. So not a bad profit for R&R!
And yes as it was in his name i got nothing

Have no idea as I only heard from his father that he had bought it. I can speak to him, what should have/ are you aware of that could have been passed on?

Unfortunately I am in the process of cutting back my collection due to an increase in my work commitments.

also for sale is my 1941 Chevrolet 8CWT.

In running condition with its original engine (ministry of supply rebuild plate) all soild with no rot. The breaks are all reconditioned and it has 5 nos sand grip tyres. All lights and gauges work.

I was planning to rebuild the carburettor ( rebuild kit included) this winter and make the hoop irons ( tube and angles included) ready to have a canvas fitted ready to get on the road next year but unfortunately I just won't have the time.

I have plenty of spares and parts avaliable to finish off the truck including a complete spare engine and gearbox.

this is a nice little truck that fits in a normal garage and at £7950 a great investment which will only go up in value with improvement and time. Open to reasonable offers.
