Now the resto of the Bedford is finished apart from routine maintenance there's nowt much to post, planning on taking the Jeep to Normandy next June now I've rebuilt a  spare engine for it and I've still got the 43 M20 to restore which now most of the mechanicals are sorted just needs to be stripped down for paint.

I'm not planning any more major resto projects as I want to have the time to enjoy what I  have rather than spend all my spare time int shed.

Yes the clue is in the title 😎

Yes Ron its almost complete just waiting for a correct pair of levers that should arrive this week, its mechanically up together and runs well, I've got it registered etc and managed several miles on it before the end of summer last year. Thanks again for the handlebars they look the biz.

New project ? 

Hi Ron think it best to place an ad in the classified section if you want to sell this. Not many will see it here.

Due to a change of plan I've decided to let my Sankey trailer go, its had a complete nut and bolt,no expenses spared restoration has an original cover, 12v electrics good tyres and is immaculate offers around £1,100 located nr Ross on Wye UK 

The Enfield is alive and well with a few miles on the clock now 

Sorry long gone to Holland 

Couple more pics to remind me of last year's fun let's hope when we get through this we can all enjoy our lives again.

Happy days

Nuther nice find at the Beaulieu autojumble, I have a few of these but this one is dated 1940 and will be the one used on my MW 

Hi Richard yes good to see you too I'll try to take some better pics tomorrow in daylight looks like your pics are of the fibre type.

This one is steel but there were fibre ones as well not sure if the fibre type replaced the steel ones or wether they were both produced at the same time, I suppose there is more chance of creating a spark with the steel version  !

A long but very rewarding day that started at 5.30 am with a trip up to the Dallas dig out then on to the vintage/ 4x4 sale at the Newbury showground where this little gem fell into my possession 

Yes it's the elusive Bedford MW 15cwt dipstick for the petrol tank, think I'll have some reproductions made 😁

I have two 1940 dated jacks both had original light green paint underneath dark olive drab, the green original paint looks the Same shade as Morris commercial engine paint ( there is a crazy expensive one on evil pay at the mo ) as I didn't like that colour I've gone for Morris minor engine green enamel 

Traces of the original green paint can be seen on my spare jack this will be left in its original condition. 

I've had a number of these jacks non of them were black. 

An enjoyable afternoon spent tinkering with the MW repainted one of the jacks and replaced the old shovel with a 39 dated example and swapped out the wire cutter for a pair of 1940 ones.

I know I know  the greens too dark but I don't care I like that colour so that's the colour it's gonna be  😁

Thanks for the update Baz I'm sure we all appreciate the hard work that goes into a project like this .

Cheers J.

Hi Baz

Any news/updates on  the tracgrips still need four for my MW.
