Fuel Trailer Identification
There is a fuel trailer for sale at the moment. Wondering if it's post war or wartime. Look like Blitz rims but I'm probably way off and they may be artillery rims or post war british. And can anyone ID the trailer with service or manufacturer pics?

From a Canadian perspective, I don't recognize the trailer. The rims have 6 bolts to affix to the hub, unusual on (Canadian) CMP trailers (or trucks over 8 cwt). The rims also seem to have more studs/nuts holding the halves together than a typical CMP.

Good day,
This water trailer was built during WW2 by Oldings. This trailer is missing the filters up the front and a toolbox on the rear similar to the one on the back of blitz water trucks. It has the annoying 7.50 18 Australian trailer rims and tyres. There are a few shown on the AWM site. Just checked water trailers and couldn't find any of this type, but they do show up in the background of other AWM photos. Ken

Yes that's the one, definitely water.
Earlier ones were in the 75XXX ARN range. Ken

New 7.50 x18 tyres are available in Australia extremely good quality......not old stock , but new 16 ply road tread at a price.........recently purchased some for a Wiles cooker.
Wheels ,brakes,springs and hubs all look the same as a Wiles cooker........most likely ford wheel bearings Ron
