Default Amazing what you come across

This weekend (4th July 2010) we attended a special event at a place called Coleshill near Swindon here in the UK, to commemorate the 70th anniversary of Churchill's secret Auxillary units. Once parked up, I happened to notice though the weeds an old trailer made up to carry wood. On closer inspection, the wheels were Canadian, as were the backplates, brake drums, springs, hangers and chassis all from a C15 ! ( 9.00 x 16 tyres). Instead of leaving the back axle there, it had been replaced with a 3" box section, as a straight beam. Anyway, have a look at the pictures, the last one of which is a period shot of my Chevy and a mates Fordson
Regards
Keith.
