ford t16 chassis number tracing
Hi all my father and my self are rebuilding a ford t16 we are trying to research the W.D number that we have. We purchased a copy of the key card for the t16 from bovington tank museum with its t number but that only goes back to 1948. But i am trying to research it further back to 1944 and hopefully its div or unit we have its chassis number and a WD number which is 86 ZT 70 does this mean anything to any one, the wd number might be it 1948-1960 wd number is there any where i can research this. help please anyone :giveup :bang:

The key card should list its previous WD number in one of the columns. i.e. 'transferred from' T104498 or T96543 or similar.

chassis number
I have now found that avd (armoured vehicle depot)75 was a disused air field at turweston near brackley! but i am still trying to trace my t16's unit during 1944.

There is no guarantee it was issued to a unit. Many vehicles sat in store waiting to be called up.
Good luck with the search anyway, hope you are successful. |
