    I need to wire in a cigarette lighter to my Bedford MW. Taking it to Normandy so I need a charging point for my mobile phone. I was going to wire it in to the battery directly with an inline fuse. What rating should the fuse be?

    Anyone an expert on telescopic sights. I have an early telescopic sight by JOHN RIGBY of 72 st James st London which dates it from 1866 to 1907. It has the military style post reticule. Anyone got any more info.

    There appears to be some doubt if you are travelling to Normandy this year re insurance with Footman James. You may well find you are not covered. Important you check with Footman James to ensure your covered insurance wise and vehicle recovery.

    I am taking my Bedford MW to Normandy and need to have recovery/breakdown cover for it. I am insured with footman James but they do not do recovery/breakdown. Can anyone suggest where I can get cover from.

    Who was selling the mattresses at the W and P show this year. It was the first stall on the left as you walked in to the stall area from the entrance by the grandstand. The mattresses for the camp beds I mean.

    Lovely pictures especially my Bedford MW. I admit Richard Farrant re sprayed it for me. But I did make tea and I stirred the paint. I encouraged him as we'll with comments such as , missed a bit there etc.

    Picked up a couple of German telescopic sights, one is a Carl Zeiss Jena zielvier serial no 42412. The other is an OIGEE Berlin Luxor 4 serial no 102461. Anyone an expert on these, can you date them or tell me anything about them. Thanks.

    Dad was an OR in the RAF in WW2 as was I in the eighties. I am afraid I cannot be an officer as I put my tomato sauce all over my dinner not a blob on the side of my plate. I will go with the WPG shirt bit pricey but worth it I think.

    To make matters worse I was after a other ranks shirt. An American company ,what price glory, are selling a reproduction are these any good.

    Anyone know where I can get a copy of a WW2 RAF shirt?
  13. MartinN
    I have been offered an original WW1 German scope an OIGEE. Any idea how much these things are worth. Also how do I determine its age.

    Is it because I have not got the bonnet springs that the bonnet slips forward when I drive it? Only about an inch but it marks the paintwork.
  16. MartinN
    Measured the bonnet this morning the gap is 7/8 of an inch.
  17. MartinN
    Will do.

    My friend owns a Bedford mj. He has a hgv licence at the moment. It weights 5 tonne plated for 9 tonne gross. What needs to be done to drive it on his ordinary driving licence. He is worried that at some time he will lose his Hgv licence he is 65 now.

    Bought myself a 12 X 12 frame tent. The horizontal poles are they fed through the tent loops or are the loops simply used to peg it down?

    I am thinking of changing the carb on my MW to the later civilian one. Does anyone know the part no for the civilian version and does it give the improvement to mileage etc that people are saying. Lastly where can I get one and how much.
  21. MartinN
    One of my neighbours has an MJ. Unfortunately the cab has gone ie rot. Any suggestions where we can get a replacement cab?
  22. MartinN
    Excellent let me know when you have them.
  23. MartinN
    Where can I get the retaining springs for the bonnet of my mw. I have the springs which hold the side panels but not the springs which are the longer ones which just hold the bonnet.

    Fuse runs headlights. Think the fuse is 25.
  25. MartinN
    One of the fuses on my mw keeps blowing I believe due to a short in that circuit. Is there a quick way to find the short.
