Looking for a Mark I , IA or IB Dingo complete, remains or parts anyone? Peter http://www.milmarket.org

haha we could call the JEEP F desease, well done. I have the Dingo desease. Peter http://www.milmarket.org

I don't think the car owner likes Dingo any more. Having someone backing his car into my Dingo many years ago no harm was done, this look worse for the Dingo. MG TD is definitely written off I think. Peter http://www.milmarket.org

It is fascinating to how armour ( and JEEPS) look under water after some year. Some how an engine was nicked not even save at the sea bottom Peter http://www.milmarket.org

Saracen's or Saladin's I are way to big for my and by the way did you know that there is hydraulic unit is under neath the drivers seat doing something 100 psi, not sure if I like that idea. Peter http://www.milmarket.org

It is clearly a Daimler scout car (dingo) data plate. Peter http://www.milmarket.org

Yes it is great event. Always looking forward to it, living round the corner of it cannot wait till September Peter http://www.milmarket.org

for sure you best buy in many years enjoy driving it when ready. Peter http://www.milmarket.org

that is very true. Our motor way Police will not stop you any more on the hard shoulder for the same reason, You have to follow them to the next fuel station or junction. Peter http://www.milmarket.org

The gearboxes in Ferret and Dingos are no extra load to a leg than on a normal manual car, probably even less. But if you get older getting in and out can maybe a bit more difficult. But the fun to drive them will always compensated the strugle of getting in. Ferret MkI and Dingo are easier to get into. Peter http://www.milmarket.org

luckily there is no road tax for classic cars. Imagine you had to pay it. Great job just amazing it is all so heavy. Peter http://www.milmarket.org

Did read that LR chassis tend to rot a little your is really bad wauuw. Not all rot, I have a LR from march 1949, it was unrestored, straight from France some years ago but no rot to the chassis. Also the bulkhead was rot free. Peter http://www.milmarket.org

best is airborne battle wheels. Not expensive good camping including al meals etc etc. I can recommended very much http://www.airbornebattlewheels.nl Peter http://www.milmarket.org

I'm not surprised. My experience with MWD's, has always been good, over about 20 years I traveled with the Charterhouse one on regular bases through UK and Europe. Better fit of engine to weight of the vehicle compare to QL Peter http://www.milmarket.org

I have often seen people transporting cars on a trailer or on the back of a lorry and noticed how they have secured the load. Till about 15 years ago I never thought about it until a friend who was transporting his Jeep on a pickup had an accident on his way back from an event. Breaking very suddenly had caused the Jeep to move forward ending half way inside the pickup’s the cabin. My friend had made the mistake that a lot of people make. For fear of losing the load they strap it to the front of the lorry not realizing that it takes a huge acceleration to make something fall of the back of a lorry. Just won’t happen… Better is to focus on avoiding sudden forward movement (relative to the lorry). The formula for the amount of kinetic energy in a mass on the move is ½ mv^2. m is the mass, v is velocity in metre per sec to the power of 2. Take a simple Jeep at the speed of 30 miles. The amount of kinetic energy is about 0,5 * 1000(kilo) * (30000*1,604 /3600) equals 500 * 13,5^2 equals 500* 180= 91000 kilo (91 tons) . This amount of energy will be release when there is a sudden stop. Don’t even think about the amount of energy released at an emergy stop with a dingo or a tank at the back of your lorry. What to do? Strap you vehicle with proper chain’s or transport straps. It is very important to have it tidy without a slack – at a slack a chain can snap easily. Forget those straps that go over the tyre, they will not last when it really goes wrong. Focus on the chains and transport snaps that are tight to the back of the lorry, rather than on the ones leading to the front. Peter http://www.milmarket.org

Two year ago I sold this boat. It is amazing what they have done with it, how and above all what they build around it . http://www.asphm.com/love_boat/index.php Peter http://www.milmarket.org

Maybe you should get the team from Burma in, they know how to do it. Much cheaper than traveling to Burma this is just round the concern and some rust will not harm at tank. Peter http://www.milmarket.org

I like early series ones, even got one LHD L8663306 made on the 3rd of march 1949. Silver chassis, light green body joy to drive. Peter http://www.milmarket.org

I remember meting Tony Sudds long time ago he was a real JEEP collector. If this colour is named after him or him made it, I bet you that the colour will a great and correct colour for a JEEP. Hope someone can help you to a sample. Peter http://www.milmarket.org

We (the Netherlands) got the left overs an other 2 inches Peter http://www.milmarket.org

If interested please join and add you pictures, story's and other thinks of interested to owners. It is not in competition with other Dingo sites, it is just an add-on. Too all those that are interested you are welcome too of cause http://www.facebook.com/groups/437020513037556/ Peter http://www.milmarket.org

Very nice bit odd to see it for the first time. Well done hope you never hit a mine with it . Peter http://www.milmarket.org
