Hathi
Where are they now? I have spent many many hours trying to find one of the Thornycroft "Hathi" trucks. Australia had, from what I have been able to ascertain, 8 of these trucks which arrived in the early 1930's were still on the books after the end of WWII.
I would love to find one to restore, so WHERE ARE THEY NOW? Here are a few photos of the Hathi in action. 1209thorneycrofthathi.jpg Lined up at the end of WWII. an002683.jpg THORNYCROFT.jpg Wide enough for 4 to sit across the front seat. large_000000 (1).jpg A good photo of one in England on test in 1929. 21462400_10155758229194329_6007233554350225361_n.jpg Please let me know of the smallest part you might know about. Regards Rick.
