  8. Hi Terryo Jim's Mrs here,I've just made one for his Sankey (pics if u want).I could you make another but have no idea what they are worth. don't have army canvas though, we use PVC (fully waterproof+ rot-proof), various colours available. Post may be rather expensive; we're in the Pennines. Have trailer for measurements.
  9. thanks for info dave do you have a contact number for mc clarty's
  10. looking for drive sprockets. wheel rims. track parts. warning plate of dash. headlights and a wombat. FORUMS FORUM has lots of very good info but wrong side of pond for for parts .tyres seem to be a problem original sizes 600x100 and 400x4 6ply, this one will only be a toy so going to try vauxhall space saver 115x70x16 and moblity scooter 400x4 4ply tyres .if spockets not available i can make them out of u.h.m.w.p.e which is a hard plastic, or can cast them in ally.
  11. Thought you might like to see some pics of 52RN64. Does anybody know anything about this vehicle "in service?", also any sources of spare parts? Thank you. Have fun with your toys!
  12. Don't know if this is on your list already, but 52RN64 Chassis No.1575 is still alive but rather poorly. Having fun making bits.
