Hi John,

I see 7AL on the fan belt, that is Albion. Cannot read the label on pistons

Default Morris.
Hello,

The large lucas headlamp with side supports is for a Morris or Humber, confirmed by a morris expert who bought the headlamp for one of his projects.

Jared I've tried to email you back but it just keeps bouncing back. Sorry the headlamp had sold by the time i got your email. If any more turn up i will give you first refusal on them, thanks for your help.

John

Default Gaskets
Hello,

I've searched the ford piston part number online, and MACs have them listed as ford V8.

Here's the gaskets i got, and some pictures of the newspaper that was in the box.

John
That headlight bucket is very similar to a Morris Bosch CVA headlight , it probably is CVA brand but : I have a couple of those same loyd-matilda tank headlights myself and the brass mounts attached to the bucket are in a different location to the Morris bucket . The Morris bucket has the mount castings attached slightly farther back by an inch or so . I can post pics

The point set (if I am reading the NSN correctly as 2920-00-606-8506) is also for the same trucks.

John, The headlights with the vertical lined glass and the two side mounts are British carrier lights (Loyd and Valentine as well)
Is the No1 Dizzy cap an Autolite from an Escort or Cortina (Mk1 or MkII)
