Mystery wheels

[Glen Plumridge]

Nope Tony, looks like it ain't as simple as a jeep unfortunately.

There is a MK1 british that looks like it has had all of the side plating used as wear plates in some hoppers. it has the track tool brackets on the glacis plate if that can help date it.

As well as an LP2a (I suspect) that has been bath tubbed, that has the steering gear still in it and the diff still attached. But I haven't seen any brake drums or sprockets in the photos.

The gent who has them has owned them for 50 years has utilised parts in the mine machinery systems he built over the years but, now he is clearing up the site he would rather see them go to restoration rather than the scrappies.

I only have a few blurry pics at this stage and not much other info about what is laying around loose.
His son in law who put me on to these thinks there is still engines etc there somewhere, so hoping he is right and there might be a couple of deconstructed carriers laying there.

Hoping to get out there next week to see whats on offer.

Andrew, I might take up your offer of the rear mount once I see whats in the pile of bits that I hope to obtain.
