  1. Interesting what people leave behind https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/uknews/motorist-sparks-outrage-after-he-parks-a-military-tank-on-a-residential-street-in-manchester-for-months/ar-BBTdtlJ?ocid=spartanntp
  2. I seem to recall the chocolate wrappers had Arabic writing on them, there used to be a joke they were left over from Suez, especially if they hadn't been stored correctly
  3. Thanks, wish was heading that way, going north instead, may be next year
  4. The planes were on wires, I think this was filmed at Scarbourgh, I don't have sound, seem to recall they were still doing it till about ten years ago,
  5. Are the ends concreted shut or are there ducts out? Looking initially I thought of a service duct hence question Also following on from post above, what was based there, how old the hanger, as if built at time of hanger it may help. There is a guide to tell how old the hanger http://www.rafmonument.nl/_files/file/raf-hangars.pdf
  6. Reading the description wonder if they ever did receive the history file
  7. Lower version of the Cuthbertson Land Rover https://silodrome.com/tracked-cuthbertson-land-rover/
  8. Stupid question but has it been dyed from the original pattern underneath?
  9. I have finally decided on the layout I am going for, taken from Army Code 61590 “Clansman Radio Installation for Trucks” pictured below, looking around will gradually collect the bits I need before starting to assemble. There are a few questions as I am not a radio person and was hoping members could help. 1. I assume there are bolt holes etc to fix the parts to the rack, what size are these bolts 2. Regarding the RT 353 and DMU unit how are these fixed to the table 3. The RT 320 unit appears to have a plate which seems to fit on the radio and then onto the racking or the rucksack frame, is this correct? 4. I have noticed some set ups have a lamp over the area would this be normal? 5. I am assuming there would be a screen between the driver’s section and the radio section, is this made up or an issued part? Any other advice would be appreciated. 20190124084118.pdf
  10. Hope who ever bought them will post on here, will be nice to follow up
  11. The description says brand new, look carefully it looks like a photocopy
  12. Clive Many thanks for a comprehensive list Richard
  13. Been trawling through pictures on line, there seems to be a range of different layouts, including one which seems to have the "man pack" fitted. does any one have an idea if there were variants from the hand book? Think I may end up deciding on what looks right for me, not wanting it to be operational just look as though I know what I am doing
  14. I hope to get pictures as well. He has a good reputation and not tied in with Land Rover
  15. I have eventually decided to fit the back of the Tithonous with a Clansman Radio kit. Can anyone help. What kit would be there? And what would the layout be? have a diagram which may be right Thanks in anticipation
  16. Well at last funds are now available, just need to arrange to get to garage
  17. Always interested in documents to show the history
  18. Have you found out the history similar to a Merlin report, that would be good to see
  19. Wasn't there discussions regarding the type of hitch the trailer had as some wouldn't fit the recovery vehicle
  20. Just read this on the BBC, a reminder that the First World War affected people after the Armistice. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-46522918
