Brett the guy who used to own Autorecycle, the classic Ford breakers, had one of these to use round the yard affectionately known as Mr Powers. It didn't make any difference if the cars brakes were locked on or not it used to shift them anyway. IIRC same 3ltr engine as the westys?

It didn't make any difference if the cars brakes were locked on or not it used to shift them anyway. IIRC same 3ltr engine as the westys? 4-litre six-pot, shared with the Austin Sheerline and the petrol versions of the BMC FG truck well into the 1970's. An absolute torque-monster. |

Thanks mate I remembered him getting a water pump for it and knew it was one of the big Austin's that shared the same engine just picked the wrong one. |
