  4. i see this post on the axis history forums,, info wanted on jeffery quad's & ''FORD ARMOURED CARS'' that were used in ireland 1919/1920, we had a thread about the jefferys a while back but a ford a/c i have not heard of and was woundering is it maybe a workshop 1 or 2 made or a production car,,,,, any info please. http://forum.axishistory.com/viewtopic.php?f=53&t=46853
  5. most of the gun slots are painted to fool snippers, i know 3 lorries were built and when thing's cooled down they were giving back to guinness one story has it that they were built in guinness ( i dont think the guinness trains were that big to have a smoke box's like that), and one story has it they were built in gsr railway works inchicore, i think you have 2 or even 3 of them.
  6. the guy in cork/kerry sold it in 2005 to that private owner in the netherlands he had the ongoing restoration on the internet ;;; search under landsverk m38
  7. i have got more info on this site than i have from my own neighbours i'll have to give the camera a good service and hopfully get some photos next year. at the start of this year i thought we had no peerless it turn's out we have two.i have only ever heard rumors about a armoured lancia and through this site i discovered there is one in a private collection in england its not for public viewing but its nice to know there is one still around.
  8. think im going through the middle age crisis (AGAIN) this is very interesting stuff, i have worked on a couple or classic car restoration so im always looking over the heage and through the gaps in the side of old barns to see whats there.
  9. thats a great link rlangham i have that same pierce arrow photo in a early armoured car book by e bartholomew from the 80s i remember trying to stratch build little scale model from old photos with very little info. its great to have all this info/photos/scale drawings/chat,,,at your finger tips.
  10. 3 peerless armoured cars( where is number 3)
  11. thats great info (well done that man)my interest in the military stuf is only recent (apart from 1/72 scale)but i heard there was someone over in bovington with a measuring tape at the peerless i thought it was going to be a scratch build, i only posted the peerless cus i seen you were asking about it on these forums back in 07 i put it in my album i thought someone would have ask about it. she look well great to have one.
  12. dont have much info on this recent restoration in the curragh camp co kildare,, should see a lot more of it next summer.
