Beute Morris-Commercial trucks

[Hendrik van Oorspronk]

Hello,

It looks like, after Dunkirk the Germans had more Morris Commercials in service than the Britisch (is that why they lost the war).

Green Greetings Hendrik

I read somewhere that the jerries had taken over a plant in Antwerp, this is where where they rebuilt the many captured Morris' .

You may have been recalling rhe late Bart Vanderveen in WHEELS & TRACKS mentioning about Ford and General Motors Continental in the docks at Antwerp/Antwerpen/Anvers. I have the figures somewhere, but he mentions extensive rebuilding facilities established for Austin, Morris and Bedford engines, etc. from memory.

I guess I'm in the wrong thread here, but it accurs to me that I have not seen any 6 wheel morris comicals, on the forum. Are they a bit rare?

Lynn, there is some info here: http://www.mapleleafup.org/forums/sh...ad.php?t=13388

or do a search under "Morris" and enjoy the ride...
