stronghold Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 Still a fair price considering one of these is road registered !! we are bidding on both with other stuff. Looks like will be few other bidders also.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andym Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 07EB53 was once a nicely restored Abbot with all the hard to find bits and pieces in the turret. In the second photo it's the one on the left. (I'm bidding on the Abbot pack, by the way.) Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daleheywoodtanks Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 Here is a brief video of the Abbot and the 432. Hope it helps. Regards Dale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daleheywoodtanks Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 Same Abbot climbing a berm. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stronghold Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 Great Videos there Dale :):) Than you. Tell me any sign of the choice Dial sight or direct fire sight in the turret by any chance ? ? Not physically seen these as yet so will be just taking punt around market value. Thanks also Andy great 2 pictures there and all good info ++ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daleheywoodtanks Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 Its a while since i have worked on these vehicles, but i think the road registered one had the dial sight. Internal fittings are 'mostly' present, but missing gun rules. Let me know if there is anything else you need to know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andym Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 I'm pretty sure that 07EB53 had a dial sight, not sure if it's still there. Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Rowe Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 Anyone got a spare regulator for one of these, (Abbott) Not sure of part number, but I am sure there is an expert out there that could tell us, Thanks Andrew. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could you define "regulator"? Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Rowe Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 Yes , I suppose I should have said for the generating side. A friend has an Abbott and he seems to think this is the problem with his charging of the batteries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A friend has an Abbott and he seems to think this is the problem with his charging of the batteries. So, "Control Panel, Alternator, No.1 Mk.1, FV342587, NSN 2590-99-881-6460"? This getting distinctly off-topic, but has he tried running the alternators individually and swapping control boxes to locate the problem? The charging voltage across the batteries should be 28.5V +/- 0.5V. Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Rowe Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 Thanks for the info, will talk to him and advise, cheers Andrew. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
