    ANR1534, Tyre sizes.

    Hello all. Been a while.. I was very kindly treated to a set of ANR1534’s for my 30th last week. They’ll be going on the 2a as soon as I get the tyres sorted. The truck is on parabolic springs so sits a little higher than standard. It’s currently on lwb rims with 750s. Tricky to photograph but...

    2a restoration..PIC HEAVY!

    I acquired my 2a about a month ago. It came from a close family friend. He and his friend have passed the Landy back and forth for the last 12 years. I’ll be putting it on a galvanised chassis. The bulkhead looks ok, though it’s had a few wonky looking repairs. So I plan on stripping it back...
