How many megs are the pics? there is a limit per post. You may need to shrink them, or post one at a time.

These are a couple of pics of my Dad's AEC taken 6 years ago (I believe it is now restored). He built this truck in the late 50's and it has the sleeper in front of the driver. I don't know his reasoning for doing this but it had the added value of creating a long sunvisor thus enabling late driving into the sun. Other oddities with this truck are the fact that he made the cabin with the front and back sections of a bus that was cut in half by a train in a level crossing accident in Horsham in 1951. Also, the drive line included a gun carrier 2 speed transfer case mounted at the rear of the chassis (see second pic). Drive was via tailshaft to the transfer case and then forward again via short tailshafts to the two Blitz diffs. There was a lot else about this truck... Maybe I will elaborate one day.
