The 1 ton lightweight

Postby muddyweb » Sat Oct 20, 2012 11:00 am

When it was dragged out of the barn, the excitement was palpable.. the "lost" 1 ton lightweight.

Now undergoing a restoration... it might take some time.

Just an additional thought - all the literature I have on these describes them as 3/4 ton vehicles, although they did have FC axles and other bits. It would have made sense from the to have a 1-ton payload but I am not sure they did.
