  1. 4 used 1500/20 tires, used but have some life left in them. £500 or close offer. Collection from near Bromsgrove or can send on pallet at cost. Jon Hickman 07818 420678
  2. I want them for a staghound, so will be going with the US size and pattern, that if we can find enough people. Kr Jon
  3. All, After many years of search, I am considering having a batch of NDT 1400/20 18pr tires manufactured. I am aware that NDCC tires are about but for any wartime vehicle they just don't look quite right, and with the new 10 year tire rule, nearly all this size tire are over this age. For those who are not aware the NDT have a square edge to the tire and NDCC have the more rounded edge. Just trying to gauge an expression of interest at this stage. These tires are not going to be cheap, but obviously the more interest I can get the price will come down. Jon H

  6. Did you just write what you wanted to write about or ask what they would like articles on? I just said is there anything you would like an article on, and they have all been published so far. I guess you will never please everyone, I have not had Windscreen in a while because I dropped out of the MVT and did not miss it,, I found the endless articles about the wiring on some rare radio based lightweight Land Rover rather dull. In my view a magazine like this should now be mainly filled with peoples experiences, photos of a trip they went on, show reports etc. The details of the vehicle's themselves have been done to death!! Unless it is a one off or something very unusual. You can do articles on individuals and their collections or vehicle, but people are always reserved about doing this, as not wanting to appear to show off!! KR J
  7. For a magazine like this to survive in what is a relatively niche hobby, it needs the people who are in it to contribute a bit. I bought the first issue of both CMV and Military Machines and most issues after that, but at the end of the day there are only so many subjects that can be written about. I have often thought that they could reprint an article from the early 2000's and would I remember reading it the first time round? The task of filling a monthly magazine like this and keeping it interesting is enormous!! I have personally written a few articles recently - you may have thought they were complete rubbish, but most of them took no more than a couple of evenings to write, I am too busy really but I just thought if no one bothers then there will never be any content. Some 'Characters' have been in the hobby a long time, some make their living from it, give a bit back and spend some time to write something......... KR Jon
  8. I have 2 no. 8.25x20 chevron pattern, used but they have quite a lot of tread left and are run flats. I have only changed them myself as I should have been using 900x20. £100 each plus P&P or collection from WV15 5HP Jon Hickman jonhickman@hotmail.co.uk 07818420678
  9. I have 4 900x20 bar grips, they have quite a lot of tread but do have some cracks in the side walls. They are Bridgstones and come without wheels. I have only changed them myself as I want a square edged tyre. £80 plus P&P or collection from WV15 5HP Jon Hickman jonhickman@hotmail.co.uk 07818420678
  10. I think there is only one in the UK, you will need to look to Europe or the US. They come up in the US fairly regularly, don't get put off by the shipping it's all fairly simple. Jon
  11. 8 pr, originated on a Rio I would think. regards Jon
  12. I have 4 900x20 bar grips, they have quite a lot of tread but do have some cracks in the side walls. The are Bridgstones and come without wheels. Ideal for a vehicle that you don't use all that often or just want to get rolling or a trailer or something. I have only changed them myself as I want a square edged tyre. £80 plus P&P or collection from WV15 5HP Jon Hickman jonhickman@hotmail.co.uk 07818420678
