I get all my paints from RR services but War Paint and Jeffery Engineering use the same supplier, they can get most colours you need, the quality is good also, and postage costs are reasonable. Hope this helps. Tyler.

Hi Mick, enjoy the site. Tyler.

Hi Mick, how are you? Good to see you on here their a very helpfull lot on here, I'll give you a ring tomorrow about this months storage £. Tyler.

Very nice. Tyler.

Hi Richard, That must be one hell of a site to see, not to mention one hell of an expreience to drive that lot down the road, looking at the Militant in your pics I'd never have thought it was 16tonnes, like they say "pics dont do them justice". Tyler.

Hi Laura, hope you enjoy the site. Tyler.

So is anyone using Windows messenger at all? Tyler.

Hi Ratchet, hope you enjoy the site. Tyler.

I think that you/we can never do too much to promote the movement, but it really gets me when so called supporters/members nit pick etc at certain types of MVs, for instance in a recent issue of CMV a writer stated his dissaprovall at how many Landrovers were at a MV show, for staters I only got into the hobby because of landys as they were/are a cheep way to get into the hobby (as have/will alot of other people do) , seacondly any MV that turns up to a show has to be a bonus, and that there is so much diversity in any one make/type of MV that the amount of a certain MV should not matter it should be the content, anyway enough ramblings I just think that yes we can do more to promote the movement and that Sites such as this are a step in the right direction, so good on you Jack and everyone else that contributes to this and other sites. Thanks. Tyler.

Hi, welcome and hope you enjoy the site. Tyler.

Thanks for that info Chris. Tyler.

Hi just found another marking on the Shorland, I say "just" it's taken a whole day to carefully uncover it, here's a pic I have no idea what it means, also in the next week theres a big update on the Shorland Blog, and it will have its first coat of paint by the end of the month, (close up) http://img343.imageshack.us/img343/2880/aa2rh.jpg Thanks. Tyler.

Degsy don't do it! plead Diminished responsibility instead :lol:

Ive seen your photos before there very good and there's some interesting MV's, as are the rest of your pics on your site. Tyler.

Promises Promises never put them in writing :lol:

Yeh Jack :wink: you can't really suggest and set up a seaction for Restoration Blogs and then not do one yourself :lol:

That was a long post but a very interesting one also, Ive never been to one of the tender sale as I don't trust myself, but a post like that helps people understand how they work. Tyler.

Hi and welcome. Tyler

Ive only ever broken down once, at a petrol station because a dead battery, no problem you'd think someone must have some jump leads at a garage full of people and cars, well you'd be wrong it seems that noone these days carries them, so we push started it, and I also didnt have jump leads "I do now", like the topic title says "Isn't it funny!!!!!!" Tyler.

It sounds like a good idea, it would be worth a try at least. Tyler.
