Welcome Peter

Nice couple of Austin Loadstars. Books come up pretty often & reasonable prices. I've got a 2 tonner & a couple of books so can copy pages if you get stuck, just pm me. Everyone here likes plenty of pics.

Are these actually K2's?

I thought the K series was from WW 2. Army ambulances etc.
