hi all, thanks for accepting me into the fold. i am of the airport fire truck scene, in particular the Bedford and Scammell/thornycroft chassis under Pyrene/Chubb Fire bodied vehicles. my father was part of their test and development from the 60's to their demise in '85. i own the build sheets and sales records for most of the trucks around the world.
i have city & guilds in motor vehicle, fluid transmission, welding and metal fabrication, vehicle electrical, combustion engine and carburation. my current restoration is a chubb spearhead, pretty much the only one left it's based on a modified MK chassis with heavy duty axles and powered by a chrysler 440 petrol V8 through an allison MT640 box. most chassis parts are easy to find but the axles i'm struggling to i'd....
so i thought i'd dip my toe into the military scene where i know knowledge is plentyful !
regards Rob
