Anybody going to the show at the Town and Country Festival at Stoneleigh in August

Bank holiday weekend the Military Vehicle section is back on again this used to be a cracking show with loads to do for the kids and partners the last few years some other

organisers took over and messed it up big style but apparently the old team are back

with a vengance the North Staffs MVT are going with 20 plus vehicles as of yet booked

Commander

So what would be the price of these beauties if one or the other turned up for sale

or is it a case that they don't

Commander

If you look at the bonnet is that the invasion star I can see

which would make this picture after 1943 i.e. after mid 1944

In my poor opinion you need nuts on there asap those are designed to take twin wheels and as such the nuts go on the outside all that is retaining the wheel is a small sleeve on the stud you only need one to come loose and he presto bye bye wheel but then again I only drive a real truck a Dodge :-D

Commander

It depends on how many go up to 25 vehicles and we stay on the municipal camp site

at St Mere Eglise any over that and we have to use the municipal camp site at Carentan

which is bigger but the facilities are very good at both sites

Commander

Our group the N.S.M.V.T. are visiting Normandy again in 2008

if anyone is intereted in joining us drop me a line

:? :? :?

BSA WM20's were still in service into the 1960's, before the B40 was called up. I do not remember the oily old Norton lasting that long :evil:

 

Not biased of course, only owned BSA's since 1969 :tup:

Now that's what you call a real mans bike

BSA's etccc... are for wimps

By the way I'm not biased of course

I had this happen earlier in the year on a Hotchkiss Jeep solved the problem by

using a decent extending magnetic probe the little blade which had sheared off

came out on the end , then being a tight git just got one of the lads to weld a new

lump on the end then got it machined to fit still running on the jeep now with no

problems and repaired at a pittance

Commander

Thanks for the rapid responce to my query
