These certainly are GREAT PIC's, Radek.

 

I will ask my friend if is something write in back of picture.

Radek

You know that building in the background? It looks very like the old indoor riding school at Moreton Morrell. Love to think it is. the estate was originally built by an american and was famous for it Polo ground. http://www.moreton-hall.co.uk

 

 

Sorry, a few pictures was for sell on ebay, this one sended me seller by email. :-)

This is simmiler, is from my friend Higgins.

Radek

Do you know who it is?, no markings obvious on uniform.

 

another war picture

Yes the Tilly (Austin Ten) is bigger as 8AP (Austin Eight).

Is the 8AP same as Austin 8hp tourer 1939?

I need many parts. It is easily and cheaper for me buy standard 8hp car and take parts, then searching for military 8AP parts.

What I know one military 8AP is in UK for sale.

Radek

Hey Radek, a bit off topic but I went to College at Moreton Morel Warwickshire that was HQ for the Free Checz Forces in WW2. any ideas where I might get a bit of history of the time?

 

:cry:

I haven´t parts for complete this nice car.

Know somebody if is possible use parts from standard Austin 8Hp? :dunno:

Thanks Radek

Wonderful little vehicle. Just as much history as the big noisy clanky tracky things, and you can actually use it! ;-)

Radek

Hi Andy,

it is fine, :-) but this is old numbering of colours. I would like paint my cars. I need present numbers of colours. :-D

Thanks Radek

Radek.

 

Some info I've got, as follows,..............

 

From Army Council Instructions,(ACI)..........North west Europe;

under ACI 533, published 12 april 1944, " Olive drab will be adopted as the basic camouflage colour for all army equipments, in lieu of standard camouflage colour no.2 (brown)

 

This subject is not an easy one to answer,............look at period pic's and you'll see why. :-)

 

The ACI's even go so far as to try and quantify colour's,.........by publishing SCCnumbers; (SCC = Standard Camouflage Colour Numbers)

SCC 1 Brown

1a Very dark brown

2 Cup of coffee and milk

3 Cup of Tea

4 Cup of weak tea

5 Very light grey

6 Dark Green

6a VERY dark green

7 A useful warm green

8 Mid green (rather dangerous)

9 Light Green (very dangerous)

10 Useful Dull Red

11 Rusty Red

11a Bungalow tiles red

11b Sandy Pink

12 Clean Cold Grey

13 Dirty Grey

14 Black.

 

Of these 1,1a,2,6a,7,10,13 and 14 are the safest and most generally useful colours.

 

(what was meant by dangerous,............or safe, for that matter, :dunno:)

Hope the above is of some help. :whistle:

 

Will look further, soon.

 

All the best,

Andy
