951 at rest

Post #1 by andrew campbell » Tue May 05, 2009 10:04 pm

I went to a quarry in Bradford today to do a twelve month inspection on a Komatsu PC340 from D Morgans of Elsmere Port. The 951 was parked close by and looks like it had been there a long time. Apart from the missing seat it looked intact and ready for restoration.

Morgans driver 'Vic' was working twelve hour shifts feeding a crusher. He told me he had worked for Morgans for 32 years.

Vic Taylor? used to drive a 3c for them for years when you could drive them on a motorbike licence. i remember him getting a new Triumph Bonneville way back when i was there. Did'nt know he'd converted to cars. Must ask our Alan.
there are old fitters and bold fitters but no old bold fitters...

Hi Amanda, and firstly a big welcome to CMN .. :thumbs_up:

I know exactly what every one is going to ask you for .. pictures of your restoration of the 10RB :thumbs_up:

I am sure some one here can help you with finding what you are looking for, if not put a post up in the wanted section ..
