Thought i would resurrect this thread as I’ve now got my hands on the QLD i mentioned at the start of this thread. Really pleased with it and I’m afraid I’ll be back here again to pick peoples brains!
But first, anyone know where i can get my hands on tyres for it in the UK?

Nice wartime pics, Keith. Notice no diagonal support brackets for the front mudguards then!

I know it's not a QLD, but think it's a QLR. The reason I say this is that it was taken in India (1945), by my Dad, who was in the Royal Signals. Looks like a small generator to the left hand side, on the floor.
Regards
Keith
