Ok, So it’s about 9 tonne empty but no tacho. …(and, mine will look like that /\ one in about 2 years time. Honest!)
Assuming that I am not using it for everyday transport (and at about 5mpg you can [zb] that!), I don’t need to fit one.
Do I?
Jeez that brings back memories! Good old Stolly.
Try to get a swim kit for it

Who’s gonna stop you and check…
Lovely Rolls B81 motor in that. 
Lumpy, but it looks like it might float…
…Like this anvil…
Awesome,my brothers pals got a mint ferret he restored,and about 4 champs a pig and a 1 tonne pig.
Possibly more,all are on the road.
Money pits of obsession
Aldershot army display…
Back in the 70s you could ride around in one of these.
I near on signed up just to drive them! What a machine!
The only place on earth to put your foot down in a stolly was along the switchback at Soltau.
^^^^ spoken like a true ex Trogg.
What a great thing to own, I’m a little jealous! Enjoy
I always fancied one with a swim kit, just to go and drive through some flooded towns and villages!

Don’t know yet. It has a UK registration plate on it but I have no paperwork from DVLA yet and I can’t really be ar##ed to spend I don’t know how long, wading through the DVLA website to find out.

I really don’t remember who or where it came from, but I do remember the old quote about Stollys… “The most fun you can have in a vehicle while you still have your clothes on!”
