Surveyor

No Perth Road, opposite Harris Academy. Which building are you thinking of in Bell Street?

Hope he got the recognition he deserved, sign writers frequently did not, I knew one who was in the RAF

Thanks for this, it jogs a memory and asks a question. In Dundee, there was a building, now owned by the University which had what looked like divisional flash's on the stone entrance columns, is there similar guidance. My father was the Maintenance Officer and pointed them out to me, they appear to have gone now

Bought it from a reputable supplier said NATO engine blue so assumed okay, paint from them has had no issues before, even the black paint which was on the cylinder head has gone

Thanks, the cylinder head was new and painted black sprayed the engine blue straight on and mechanics fitted it, noticed today after first 25 miles when checking for a run tommorrow

Sorry to hijack this thread, I sprayed my engine casing with the blue paint, ran engine and the paint has stripped off, any suggestions?

Managed to get home and amongst my readily available cook books is "Feeding Tommy", it does show a Soyer stove, its written by Andrew Robertshaw, it says he is the Director of the Royal Logistic Corps Museum. There is no indication of sizes etc. The book was published in 2013. There is a reference to "Manual of Military Cooking and Dietary 1918"

Please see below from the SMVF secretary; Please take the time to read this important message and the attachment from the Federation - they explain how the future use of our historic vehicles may be at risk and the action you can take to help correct issues within the proposed Transport Scotland Bill. The attachment is quite long at three pages but it fully exlains the issues and contains advice on how to help on page 3. Time is very short as representations must be with your MSPs 'before' 4th June. You can find e-mail contact details for your MSPs at https://www.parliament.scot/msps.aspx and note that in addition to your own constituency MSP you will have a number of regional MSPs representing your area who you could write to.

Sounds good, any pictures

Chris Family is more important look after them. Also good that you have a team to support you. Richard

I have just received the attached and thought of interest DfT Letter with Press Release 26.04.19.docx FBHVC Press Release 26.04.19 Police Clarify Their Stance on Historic Vehicle MOT Exemptions.docx

Any clues as what's it towing

Wonder what is the estimate?

Many thanks for the information Richard

Rob Had a site of the asset plate says FFR, the only thing is the picture supplied show no candle stick holders, wing attachment or the sleeve in the rear Richard

That may be the answer thanks

Thanks, sent email last night to get more information Richard

David Many thanks think this is what I expected Need to sort out how the thing is registered Richard

I will be contacting the DVLA to get some advice, but appreciate comments to assist from the forum. Looking at the vehicle and checking on type it appears the rear seats have been removed, asking for what is on V5. I have no indication when done. The question is assuming the DVLA say no record is it okay to replace seats Next thought, if removed prior to civie registration but restoring to original how do I stand

Ruxy Many thanks does answer some questions Richard

Thanks, I suppose that the MoD would buy a hard top and not look at changing to a soft top and vice versa

Gents Thanks, I have a Land Rover which is fitted with Wolf Wheels and trying to see what I need to replace the tyres Richard

Sorry trying to get clarification, why say Land Rover has Wolf wheel, as if I pick you up correctly there is no difference. As I have both MoD and looking at civie want to make sure can use both or neither Richard

Still learning. What's the difference between Wolf Tyres and normal Land Rover Tyres Richard

Many thanks I am not really mechanical so learning which helps me Richard
