Hello
I have the option on a 1965 Hotchkiss that needs some minor work.
There is on advertised on Nilsen for £17K.
My question is,og I invest time and money in a Hotchkiss jeep am I realistically going to get my money back out of it someday?
You can't keep something forever.
Recently I acquired a Mountain Howitzer.I am not in the UK and wish to restore the Gun to functioning Condition.
I have removed the Barrel assembly from the Chassis (not the right term probably) and now am trying to free up the Breech.
I have been pouring oil down the Barrel for months,letting it run out from around the Breech block.I tried warming the breech up with a torch,it was encouraging to see Molten Grease run out.Alas no movement in the Breech.
I am thinking I will have to press out the large Pin that the Breech linkage hinges on?Then I hope with the linkage removed the Breech block its self will slide out,or press out or beat out?
Hello
With luck this works.Third times the charm and all that.
I live in Norway where the weather is cold but the people are colder:)
I look forward to learning more about my interest in Military vehicles,I have had a couple of jeeps and now own an old unimog.
Some more gauges.
Vacuum operated windscreen wipers,wiper blades,covers,oil can,oil feed lines,plugs,points,distributor cap,points,pulleys,switches,ariel mount and all sorts of things.
Recently I have decided to sell alot of parts that came with a jeep I had.6 combat rims and tyres,boxes and boxes of new and original parts.Clutches,seat cushions,a muffler,lights,gauges you name it.
I have no idea as to what the lot it worth.There is an entire reproduction wiring loom in its packaging and all sorts of stuff.
Ideally I would like to shift it as a job lot.
Any ideas on what I should be asking for it all?
