Note: The grill it came off is available also. It is very straight and has no dents in the wire mesh. The bottom channel has the usual metal wastage however. Very reasonable price but local pickup only. Contact me if interested otherwise it's off to Simsmetals next month.

Winch what winch? It will be a 30cwt which had a shorter wheelbase then the 3 ton long WB models as most of these real early one's were only 30cwt models.

If you look a bit closer the chassis does have winch mounts, and also reinforcing on the chassis for same, may well be a postwar sawmill refit or not ?

Certainly worth preserving the blitz whatever it's identity turns out to be.

That chassis looks a lot shorter than my F30S.
