dsl ◊ 2015-07-04 19:41	K2 or K4??? (Have entered as K4 provisionally)
johnfromstaffs ◊ 2015-07-04 19:46	Twin rear wheels, and tipper body, so K4.
Sunbar ◊ 2015-07-04 21:46	K2 Loadstars also had twin rears and this I think, is rather a dropside truck than a tipper? Its not possible to count the number of studs on the front wheels but it looks like eight rather than six, so K4 is likely.
Sunbar ◊ 2015-07-05 19:58	It is a K4 Loadstar 4-5 Ton Tipper - the higher than normal sides show its not a normal dropside truck. Another here... /vehicle_541810-Austin-K4-Loadstar-1953.html
