the following 4 photos were taken in Italy of a Polish unit. The photos are marked with the data base they came from.
I hope they are of interest to you and there was more of them then just these 4. Be interesting to mark your vehicle as one of these Polish ones as I am picking the markings done this way would be as rare as the vehicle itself ![]()

Colin from Scotland who is doing an amazing job of restoring this truck which their was very little left of in terms of a project after having been worked hard in a timber mill for 50+ years. The same mill which he works in he also rescued the C15TAA (already known to the forum) from some years earlier.

Yep thats right she's up for sale, not an easy
![]() Don't get me wrong i do have to sell to afford this 'possible new project' but don't really want to sell this truck and although i'd like a new challenge, the thought of never having to see the back of this truck is possibly almost as appealing!!! Either way: * if i sell it = great, new challenge....? * If i don't sell = great, I get to keep the truck I've always wanted to own! Its not cheap, hopefully nobody will be interested to the tune i'm asking for the FWD and that will have made my decision? ![]() regards to you Hanno and everyone, Ben |

I understand. Either way, I hope she continues to get the care she deserves after you rescued her from oblivion. A job well done! ![]() And if you take on another challenge, we count on you giving us a full account on this forum. Thanks and keep up the good work. Hanno P.S. what happened to that LAAT?

Ben,
There are at least 9 more FWD's over here in OZ. Three have recently gone to the scrappy. ![]() ![]() ![]() I have one, (mine is unrestored), and so does Glen Stones at Swan Reach, Vic. Glens is one of the best restored trucks you'll ever see. Bob Dimer in Western Australia has a fifth wheel on his. He drove it on the "Back to the Track" trip from Alice Springs to Darwin in 1995. The RAAF used them as tippers during WW2and post-war. (I had noticed that you stated only 2 in the world in your Milweb advert.) Good luck with the sale. Pity I can't afford it, as it will take me forever to get mine to equal yours.Are you going to let us in on the possible new purchase???? Regards Rick

Your problem is that You leave many messages about FWD HAR in many Military Vehicles Forums around the World, but You do not check answers from those Forum's members. You never check those answers ! For example: I have left the message for You on February 12, 2013 in HMVF Forum: http://hmvf.co.uk/forumvb/showthread...d-T969-wrecker Also I have answered to You in Russian Armourbook Forum - even in Polish language ! But obviously, You did not see these answers... Thus, I repeat once again: - Sprawdź moje zawiadomienie o FWD na HMVF Forum (od modello) ! Dostępne są informacje na temat rozmiarow сiężarówki. |

I saw your answer, but your content on other trucks. I'm looking for materials for trucks used by the 2nd Polish Corps in Italy.

G'day gents,
I have become the new owner of the HAR1 restored by the now late Bob Dimer in West Oz. It has had little use since the trip to Alice in 1995 and needs lots of tlc to improve operations. The biggest hurdle is the crankshaft and bearings. The crank is about 8 thou oval and has bad scoring. I haven't been able to find info on the original crank dimensions or much on availability of parts. Any Leeds would be appreciated. Thanks Ric. P.S. this is the only pic on the pad so far!
