    I think I may have some input shafts.

    It may be easier to either have some made, or make them yourself. They are a femmer item.

    It has been reported that that the iconic Carolyn Grace has been killed in a motoring accident. Her son was also injured I hope he makes a full recovery. May her Spitfire keep flying along with her spirt. May she rest in peace. Condolences to her family.

    Bygone Bedford bits. Your local filter supplier should be able to cross reference your filters.

    All of the experts said a certain Roman emperor did not exist now they are having to eat their words.

    One thing you know the gearbox will be full of water. Great find. How long before that flat head runs?

    Get the kettle on, and the biscuits out.

    This is now a game of patience, the parts you want are out there it's just a matter of finding them in the world stores. There was a rumour I heard a couple of years ago of three of these vehicles parked in a timber yard in the Scottish boarders. Have you put a wanted advert on Facebook, Soft skinned military vehicles?

    It's going to be hard finding parts.

    I always had a couple of blocks of wood with me for when it stepped out of the track chains. It was a bit more difficult on the ones with a rope blade. Fast on scrapper work.

    I think the one I know of was purchased running about 3 years ago for £600. There had been a few people looking at it.

    I seem to remember a double joint in the ball behind the transfer box.

    If it is just a prop shaft people like Propshaft services will make you a new one as long as the splined ends are O.K. Do a bit more investigating before you attack the enclosed shaft.

    I know of a similar unit the small excitor generator is used to start the lister. Unscrew all of the large knurled nut decompressors then with it spinning over close them. If it has fuel it should start.

    Getting the torque tube apart is a filthy and awkward job.

    There are quite a few firms that will reline your plate.

    It is nearly 24 hours since the United Kingdom lost its long serving Monarch. We will never see another one like her. Thank you for your time. R.I.P. your majesty.

    Does anyone know what these are for? I can only find RPC 917 a number on the tag.

    You already have made friends with a Landy
