  1. You our would hope so! Looks like my RS was an ex tipper with replacement civy rear axle.
  2. Interesting.... The tipper has a roof without cupola or horns, and the wrecker has a chrome radiator surround! Richard
  3. At long last my RS was delivered yesterday. It has been offered on eBay but didn't sell, so a deal was done, and after being messed around by several hauliers it finally made it home. It it has been converted to a timber tractor, with jib and a garwood winch, chain driven off the transfer box. Sadly both the contract and chassis plates are missing, but there are some clues to a military past, layers of deep bronze green paint, a painted bridge plate on the cab, and fire extinguisher bracket on the drivers seat base. It has a civilian type cab, and a Perkins 6 cyl Diesel engine The cab is really bad, so will probably be replaced, but the rest looks good. Any hints, tips or clues on its history would be most welcome! sorry the photos are upside down, sending this from my phone... Richard
  4. Quest running out of program ideas?! Might we see the Wheeler Dealers fixing a MV or Drew's van?!
  5. Didn't mean to post the photo three times! Doing this on my phone as too lazy to get the laptop out! My RL arrives next week, having been messed around by a haulier for two months... The fun starts then!
  6. From the S type manual, I presume R's are the same. I'm told the other lever is the 2/4wd?
  7. there used to be a tank on the waste land outside the TA centre in Prestatyn. The REME used to practice recovering it, but we used to play in it in the evenings. The TA welded the turret hatch open to stop anyone getting stuck in it. Then one day it had gone! It might have been a comet, and would love to know what became of it.
  8. Hi, no, north London! Will provide some details when it arrives!
  9. Hi, I'm new here, just purchased an RL, hopefully it will be delivered this week! I also have an ex RM winterised, waterproof landrover 110, hence my user name! No doubt I'll be asking lots of RL related questions over the next few months, for which I apologise! Richard
