Actually, that is a rather attractive truck and found that same colour green under my paint work.

Would it be fair to say that the stars would be original?

I'd say you are right there Jack,the stars are probably original. it looks like the winch is missing but for £1650 that's not a big problem. shame it's not closer.

That's what I was thinking Matt, would as much to get here I would expect.

May be a daft question, but would you say that it has been used, abused or stored?

That truck has been used but would clean up very nicely and could be a beautiful restoration with Army Corps of Engineers markings. :D

I agree Jim,used but by the looks of it no major rust or damage. all the lights are post war but that's to be expected with a truck which has seen euro service.

Jack I'm sure you could get it back to the UK for less than a grand,so I'd still say for £2600 it's not bad.

The thing is Matt, that truck really appeals to me, it looks like it has a serious story to tell.

Would you know anyone who would bring it back?

Guys...

That truck is a freakin' Tipper. Most Tippers I have seen have had the daylights beat out of them. Look at the condition of the dump body. No major damage from large rocks and other junk. It even looks like the front fenders aren't dented.

She truly is a beauty body wise. The mechanicals may be another situation but for the money it is a heck of a deal.

Anyone talk to this owner yet?

I usually don't post for 3rd parties but I could not let a truck this nice get away without a member of our group getting a shot at it.

The problem I have Bill is that Iam having the same feeling as I did when I first saw my truck :shock: ....which is not a very good sign :oops:

I have dropped him an email but as yet, I haven't heard anything back.

She will be a beauty for someone that really cares about these old trucks. Bill is right about that tipper body it is really in great shape.
