Hi Tim, I have seen a listing of someone, somewhere, with this or a very
similar Thorney. I thought it might have been someone in the North East
Military Vehicle Club, but I couldn't find my club vehicle listing to
check it out.

It will be very rare but not valuable. A complete basket case maybe 500
to 750 UKP. Even a well restored example would not sell easily, I'd
compare it with an AEC Matador, and I'd expect to buy a 'good' one of
those for UKP 2 - 3k or thereabouts. (no offence to UK vehicle collectors
- please, these are great trucks that just don't seem to be highly valued)
When you consider that a standard MB or GPW will sell almost instantly at
twice the price it seems like a bargain. Will be a complete pain for
parts though.
