Austin K2A GS Truck for sale
This month ten years ago MLU member Henk Minne took delivery of his Austin K2. Sadly, Henk passed away last May. He had been a member of MLU since 2010 and was very active as a "lurker", partially because his command of the English language in writing was limited. Henk contributed to the upkeep of MLU on a regular basis.
Now the time has come to put Henk's beloved Austion K2 up for sale. I am posting this heads-up on behalf of his daughter. More details will follow soon, so if you are interested - watch this space. Regards, Hanno Quote:

I remember riding around the island of Jersey in this very truck in the 1980's. The owner was showing a group of us around the war sites. After the hair raising journey around the narrow lanes he informed that the brakes were shot !!!!
Austins are lovely trucks and it would be nice to see it back in England 😉

Pieter, as long as you don't register it for the road in the Netherlands, it can keep the registration of the country it was imported from.

Just a short update:
The K2 was picked up last December: And was driven during the Market Garden weekend 2017: It's current owner mentioned on FB: "Coming up for sale soon. Austin K3, registered and ready to go, more info thru info@airbornegarage.com" So for the ones who missed out on this truck last year, here's your second chance! Regards, Hanno
