Default Rear end

It's actually a Bedford 2 speed diff but with the CMP hubs fitted.

I'm going to have a look at it today hopefully.

Default I had a look

It's an Australian F15 and VERY rusty.

Even the rear fish plates on the chassis have rusted through and the chassis has been cut behind the rear spring hangars.

The doors look OK in some pics but they have both gone - seriously this one is scrap value only (although the gearbox is still there).

Default Another pic

The truck originated in a location close to salt water.

The engine cover has holes cut in it and comes from a F60S tipper.

Default Chassis

The rear section behind the rear spring hangars is missing altogether and the rear fish plates are rusted through. Of course the missing bit can be added from another chassis but of course it's always better to find something intact.

It has also had helper springs and the rebound brackets added. As for the rest I can't really comment as I didn't have a close look.

But the overall impression was it was a pretty marginal proposition unless you really need some items such as a good steering box, gearbox (unknown quantity) and various brackets and bits 'n pieces.

Default Drivers door

Although the door looks to be OK the inside is very rusty.

What a shame - without the rust it would have been a nice straight cab.
