Hi Rick, (and Jill)
Thoroughly enjoyed the pictures and description of the find and rebuild of the Albion, reminds me of recovering my Dodge from a scrapyard back in 1977. So, happy 100th birthday Albion. Best regards Keith |

Thanks all for your kind words, Jill, my spanner hander and No.1 girl found this letter which I had misplaced years ago. It has more of the Albion's history from an old bloke I met years ago. Michael K. died 15 years or so ago so I am glad the letter was put away safely. Thanks Jill.
You can see the winch in the as found photos in post 1. The right rear of the chassis had the right rail pushed across towards the left chassis rail and I had to replace the rear cross member as well as straighten the chassis and get the sag out as well. Regards Rick. img088a.jpg
