Richard
I had a feeling they turned the normal box on to its side to fit this application. I broke a scrap Karrier to provide a spare parts for my Humber but luckerly never needed them. If Niels sends me a private e-mail I will let him have the contact details of our friend who cleared Grimes of all their military stuff prior to closer. He definately has some Half Shafts but probably not the transmission parts. We still need a good contact in Burma to update us on the 40 Humber A/C's they have or had untill very recently.

I will try and get a photo of the gearbox today. Don't think it is as simple as turning on side because of the mounting to bellhousing screw holes.

Neil, Had a close look at the gearbox and clutch housing, and see that it looks like the gearbox is turned 90 degrees. There are some differences, because the oil level plugs are not in the right position, they have bored the geabox casing on the upper side and fitted a dipstick. In my photo of the gearbox, it is standing in the "normal" postion, but would fit in the vehicle with the side showing, facing down. The second photo is the clutch housing which is special to the A/Car as it allows the box to be fitted on its side.

They obviously modified what ever they had to hand rather than build something new.
Are you currently working on a Humber?

I would seem like a lot of the British manufacturers during those times, they had a lot of common parts throughout. And to your question, Yes

wanted Turret fan
Hi
The restoration of the Humber is going really well now, but we are looking for the fan unit that sits in the turret. I have attached a couple of pictures of how it looks.
