  1. Chris, well that would be nice to see, whatever state it's in. I was told about 15 years ago that there was something left of a FV426 on the IoW. But I have doubts that a vehicle got that far in development. I think it will be just as elusive or unlikely to be made as the FV4010 Heavy tank destroyer. Go on Chris please tell me someone has got one of those as well!
  2. Alan wow, you is de man! Never seen that before, so I assume that is FV421 ie a load carrier & perhaps FV420 was the APC? I can see how the FV426 would lend itself to that parentage. The Orange Williams were fired out of the sides of it & great emphasis was made on its wading capabilities. I'll go & read up the specs again.
  3. No telephone, electric, water or maintenance role. Reo, is it? I have no idea! These 23 things are mounted on planks 1ft high & 12ft long each side.
  4. Ah with you Mark, funny noises or messages to go home because your wife or partner is having an affair? Nope nothing like that.
  5. Graham, they do look as if they should do something like that. But they are not circuit breakers, fuses, or sockets nor for lighting or speaker systems.
  6. Neil, you've not exhausted all possibilities yet! There are 23 of these things on each side of the truck.

    WW1 Steam?

    Marcel, I think the first traction engine used by the ASC was in 1904. The uniforms look more of that period than WW1.
  8. Correct Correct Correct Correct Not fluid connections Not junction boxes Not a shower or washing unit
  9. It does look something like that, but nope.
  10. Yup Nope Yup Yes, but could be anything. This is a cargo truck.
  11. No milk or dairy products involved.
  12. Ah Wednesday I forgot, Marmite on toast? Nope US
  13. I think I saw you walking around with it at Dallas :thumbsup:
  14. Ah yes, but when was it taken? I know what you mean about the mobile phones, there have been cases of soldiers fitting mobile chargers into vehicles resulting in electrical fires!
  15. Well even a pic of FV421 would be nice to see. I have the design spec for the FV426, but even the PRO has no illustration of it. I was in contact with someone who drew his interpretation of what FV426 would look like based on the specs & what must have been a FV421. It did have a very Stalwart look to it. BTW my avatar is Orange William, hence the interest.
  16. Oh come on John, RF is still cooking his beans on toast. You can't give in already!
  17. I believe garlic is secreted through sweat so that might be the giveaway. (Although I cook my own curries, I pick & choose which ingredients I use. I use no garlic or onions, which is in total contrast to those awful supermarket ready made ones, which consist of little else!)
  18. I think dietary prejudice is raising it's ugly head here Richard! Speaking as someone who eats about 6-7 curries a week, there is no problem (generally). But those who are not digestively aclimatised, are the ones who are susceptible to later difficulties.
