Loyd TPC

[ajmac]

Chaps,
I managed to visit a guy yesterday who has a 1941/42 No1Mk2 Loyd TPC tucked away in a shed on his farm in England, it is in great condition, only missing, dash, front armour, fuel tanks and a section of the rear chassis due to the fitment of a diesel engine some time between 1945 and 1980ish when the current owner brought it from a farm auction. It has been converted to a plough with a draw bar integrated into the back of the chassis, thus there is a lot of work to bring the rear back to original condition.
It has the circular holes in the road wheels which all have perfect rubber, but this isn't a surprise as it has lived at the back of a pitch black brick shed since it was brought back in the early 80s.
It's not forsale and the owner wants to remain anonymous, but I can't see anything wrong with posting a couple of photos which may help with Loyd knowledge. I shall keep asking if he wants to sell however reading the owner and the huge collection of old farm machinery that he has I don't think it will ever get the attention it deserves as he has SO MUCH else to get on with, but he has saved it for us all this far, so he must be thanked for that.

Amazingly the farmers father was around, he had driven Loyds during the war, so I had a nice chat with him!
