  1. Had you seen this? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Humber-1ton/273019443063?hash=item3f913a1777:g:3SwAAOSw61haVkTB Nic
  2. This is the sort of thing you're all so good at - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Military-Mobile-Container-Unit-Camper-caravan-Project-Zombie-Bunker/183008952469 What was it then... the seller never found out, but writes it up amusingly. Nic

  4. A pair of Pigs offered on ebay! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/152828131844?ul_noapp=true Nic
  5. Everything has a price, but I'm not actively looking to sell it. You will find one elsewhere far cheaper than I'd be prepared to part with this one. Keep looking and one will come along. Good luck. Nic
  6. Paul, I wondered when you'd spot your old warhorse - I bought it from Dave Powell about 2 years back when he was downsizing his collection. He'd done a lot of work on the brakes, so it didn't need a great deal doing when I acquired it. Dave passed on it's paperwork and some old photos so I saw you featured in the text! It now lives near Thirsk, North Yorkshire., and has been to some of the 'Northern Shows' over the time I've had it - YWE, Croft, YMVT Crank-Up in York and the NEMVC event at Ryhope. I had it returned to the Olive Drab and Adam Wright of MV Depot at Helperby refitted the nearside fuel tank, added the mudguard mirrors and generally serviced anything that looked in need last winter. It currently needs a new silencer and the fuel primer lever has fallen off - restarting after a few months rest is something of an issue! You'll recognise the older 'riot' painting seen here on it's journey north .... Nic
  7. Oddly I have a Mk1 Pig that looks like a Mk2! 30BK43 was one of two that spent the 'Troubles' as training aids in barracks in Kent, so while it is 'dressed' as an NI operational vehicle it was never up-armoured. Probably has one of the best Pig drive trains in the world as a consequence. They don't come up for sale often. There was one on ebay recently asking over £10K - I don't know whether it sold. Maintainance is straight forward, but time consuming. In the order of 90 different lubrication points underneath - some take grease, some SAE30, some EP90..... Spares are an issue - I'm currently after a new exhaust and will probably end up having to fabricate one. Nic
  8. Anyone got a spare Pig exhaust system hidden in their spares box? I have a good home for one! Failing the legendary NOS item has anyone any ideas on a modern commercial silencer box that could be adapted for the purpose? Thanks in anticipation! Nic 30BK43 .
  9. I can help you, but you'll have to collect from Thirsk, North Yorks.YO7 4AD for the sat nav! Nic
  10. I really must learn to count! And I didn't know the 'aluminium' bit - they're certainly heavy enough! Thanks. Nic
  11. Are they the same as those on Stalwarts? (he asks expecting to be corrected!) Nic
  12. Organising events like this is a thankless task - often too many niggles and not enough recognition for the hours of effort and logistics that goes into running such a complicated show. Many thanks to Stuart and his team - and a big hand to the rarely recognised 'loo' team. Nic
  13. Photo reconnaissance camera from an aircraft? Nic
  14. I emailed the seller. He forwarded me this picture. So yes it is for 623 and 624 owners! Nic
