I have made repeated request to different curators there and even the director for some pictures, but nothing doing. If any forum member is near there or going there, perhaps you could let me know and take some pictures for me. The truck in question is a Morris Commercial PU8/4. I have the only other surviving example.
Hi Ron,

Through Rory, I´ve known for years you have the other PU8/4, but we´ve never met in person nor did I see your Morris-Commercial in the metal. Back when the Victory Museum closed her doors, I was in contact with the guy handling the sales of the vehicles re. the PU8/4 in their collection. But all of a sudden, the remaining stock was scooped up by the Auburn museum and the PU8/4 was included in the sale. Pity!

As for pictures, I have seen many of them on the internet during the past years. I have googled some for you, take a look at these links:
