Model of the an Army mobile engineering workshop in the Science Museum, London.
Daimler Workshop Lorry C.1918
In WW 1 British Armed Forces used a large number of lorries, cars, tanks and aircraft. The ability to maintain and repair where it was being used was important, hence the fleet of mobile workshops.
These consisted of three-ton lorries carrying the machinery necessary for making all but major repairs.
During use the lorry was parked and its\sides folded down to extend the workshop floor. The machine tools were then driven from the lorry engine by belts and shafting.
