Richard, First off let me say "Thank-you" for the reply and it is a pleasure meeting you. That is information I did not know. I collect military items because I like them, and because I enjoy the history behind them. I especially like when I can confirm their history. Again "Thank-you" for your help. Regards, CaptMax

I recently obtained the military history of my MKII Ferret from the Tank Museum in Bovington UK. I need help deciphering everything that isn't obvious. Looks as if it has made its rounds doing a stint in Canada during the 1970's. I can see it was part of the 10th Hussars, as well as t6he Royal Green Jackets. If anyone can shed some light on the rest I would greatly appreciate it. Here is what the museum sent me on it. Thanks for any help you can offer. CaptMax

I just posted pictures of some of my firearms in my album here on the forum and would like to get others opinions on what they think of them. Living in the USA does have its advantages (sometimes). I only got into military vehicles recently as I purchased a Daimler Ferret. This is going to be another addiction I can tell. Thank-you and hope you enjoy the pictures. CaptMax

Looks like a nice Jeep too. I sure hope you get it back, and the thieves are punished.:mad: Best of luck, CaptMax

Thank-you for the warm welcome everyone. Yes I will get you all the pertinent information "Toolman" Matt, as well as send you an email Robin. I am sure I will be asking lots of questions in the next few months, I will try and use the forum search function before I do. This is definitely going to be an adventure I am embarking upon, I have big plans for a nice restoration. Yes the Ferret only came with one sand channel and I was happy to get that. Not sure what happened to the other. What few items I need are mostly cosmetic and I have located several of them. First order of business is having my mechanic go over everything with me to be sure it is all in operating order. He has owned several of these and knows them in and out. I will start a new thread when I am beginning the restoration and post lots of pictures for all to see. Regards, CaptMax

This is not a DPM beret but it is one of my favorites. It was liberated from Pt. Salines from an "adviser" during the Grenada invasion. This is known as the "Lizard Camo". CaptMax

Grey actually. Will be restored to the correct colors when I am completed with it. CaptMax

Hello fellow members, I just purchased a Daimler MKII Ferret and am starting the restoration on it. Here is a picture as it sits. Glad to have found this forum as there is lots of information here. Hope I can add to the discussions. I am located in Michigan USA. CaptMax
