Wanted 1950's Brit trailer plugs

[Diana Alan]

Am looking for a pair of the plugs used by the British Army on the first Land Rovers, someone may have some in their unknown parts box.

The images below are the fitting and them in place on a ex-MoD 80" used in the Great Train Robbery (Ronny Biggs et al)

Contact me by PM.

Diana,
To widen your search, these are wartime parts used on every British MV fitted for towing trailers. On HMVF forum there are a number of threads running on restoration of WW2 Brit trailers and some links to who has these parts I recall.

regards, Richard

Hi Richard

I knew they were trailer plugs and fitted to MoD Land Rover before the Warner Plugs but wasn't aware the extent of other vehicles that had them.  The info so far has come from EMLRA.

If you look at one image it is named "Paul Beck", the Vintage Supples mob, this came from their catalogue and after contacting them they were sold out, not expecting any more.

Will widen my search.
