The NBC filter box on the Mk.1 is the same as the Mk.2, it's only the Mk.2/1 that uses a smaller box. The dimensions over the hull plates is 2.565m - how small do you need to go?
All this info is in the User Manual, by the way. Strongly recommended! :-)

Some pics from today's AWD Heavies event at Slab Common with the REME Museum Conqueror in attendance. Much tweaking of fuel injection settings in progress. Thanks to Andy & Co. for putting up with me!

I wonder if Iain has the record cards? Bovington are usually pretty helpful in that respect. Mine (08EB10) spent all its life in BAOR before coming back to the UK to be sold off.

I did indeed get the paint from Marcus Glenn - he does it in aerosols and the price difference didn't warrant getting out the spray gun (and cleaning it afterwards!)

Brush all the loose stuff off then degrease with Gunk Eco-Green. It's not 100% but a lot better than it was. In case you're wondering, I wasn't worrying about overspray onto the pack frame as it was actually sitting in a 432 frame at the time; it's a 432 to 433 pack conversion for my Abbot.

Beware that Marcus' batteries are the old-fashioned flooded lead acid 6NTs, not the AGM gel 6NTMFs, which are an entirely different beast - hence the price difference!
Andy
That may not be what was actually paid for it, of course. I suspect the £100k was just to deter unwanted tyre-kickers - everything is open to negotiation!
