Chassis
Good to see some interesting history showing up with this truck Ian.
While this thread is getting some interest I might as well throw out some lines and see what might be available re a WOT chassis.
As mentioned at the start of this thread I have a WOT 2D (front half) truck which I was initially going to pass on to ian to restore until the 2H came up and was a better prospect for him. I have enough parts to complete the 2D if I can get a complete chassis. Does anyone have any clues as to where there may be one available? The front half I have has all the good bits on it ( brake linkages etc) so if necessary I can fabricate the rear half, or adapt something to graft onto the front.
Does anyone know if Thames trucks were similar in the chassis. This will be a long term project so I will start hunting down what I need while Ian can keep this thread topical. My guess is there are about less than ten of these trucks in Australia in any condition and I don't think too any more elsewhere in the rest of the world.
Any assistance greatly appreciated
