    I think it looks brilliant Kevin. I don't think it looks over weathered, just very realistic.

    Some very sensible advice. I have always been told not less than 10 degrees and definately not when there is damp in the air.

    Its a great find, huge amount of work required but so rare it needs to be done.

    Thats interesting Ted, so it is a K3. I had assumed it to be a K4 probably like many others would have.

    Was it in Norway?

    The posts are quite old now, I know of the Karrier initially in the thread but wonder whats happened to the one posted in December 2016 by GeirM?

    Agreed, it will be a K4. A ladder escape unit.

    That is a nice looking Austin.

    You would need an aircraft hanger!

    An already very heavy machine, I wonder how much extra weight the armour plating added!

    The Riker thread has just been talking about machines used during the Boer war!

    Absolutely superb. I really do like the look of this truck. Would like to see it in the flesh at Evesham.

    In 1902 it was cavalry and foot. Machine guns were in use by then, British and Austrailians using the Maxim and the Boers using the Colt 95. Iirc it was nicknamed the potato digger but I could be wrong.

    Absolutely brilliant! Very much a well done to you guys. The detail is superb.

    That really does look a good source of spares. Even the smallest items are invaluable to a restoration project. How did the tractor dealer come about it?

    It does look very good, I agree being locked down near your vehicle is ideal!

    So in short, if you know of an interesting project on the continent get a move on and get it snapped up!
  19. Rootes75
    It looks really good, such a good use of your time whilst on Furlough!
  20. Rootes75
    Looking very good.

    Well Al that does sound like some progress in tacking it down. Did the chap give you any leads to the owners who have had her since he did?
  22. Rootes75
    Now that does look good, well done on a very good job.
  23. Rootes75
    Great picture.
  24. Rootes75
    Its a lovely truck, I presume it must simply be the price holding buyers off?
  25. Rootes75
    You can say that again, that is a fine sight and some superb workmanship.
