KWY 735K Ex WY Command Unit

Posted by Mark Elliott at 10:18 PM on August 24, 2009

Excellent news about KWY 735K, She is been 'Lovingly' restored by professional day to day mechanics Mark Griffiths & Stewart Kaye at a garage in Huddersfield.

 

They found the old CU about 2 years ago buried under trees in shipley being used as a 'Mobile Home'

 

After a bit of negotiating, She was taken back to Huddersfield to be given some TLC!!

 

This CU was said to hold a world record of - 9 white helmets inside at 1 BIG job!!

 

Mark & Stewart also own 2 Ex WR & WY Dennis F46's one which is in the earlier WR white scheme.

 

There are rumours that other Ex WR & WY appliances will also be lovingly restored.

 

One of the F46's starting with BWH? was found in a Norfolk scrapyard - Rotting to the core!!

 

She was rescued and was recovered back to where she belongs - WY!!

 

There are photos on various sites of these 'Lovely' appliances.

 

Cheers.

Mark.
