Wolfy

Hi Paul,

A COC is only needed for vehicles under 10 years of age.   When I registered my Wolf way back in 2006 I managed to get Land Rover to write a build date letter and in that it stated Military vehicles are exempt from type approval.  I don't know if they still do this but if you have the release paperwork that should be enough.

LHD come up fairly frequently you should find one ok, here for example -

Does anyone have information on the variants of missile?   I have 6 mk1 missiles and they all vary slightly, things like opening panels, tail fins, nosecone etc...  As a mancave piece of art you cant beat them, despite what my partner says 🤣

Send me a pm

Im in Australia and have an acquaintance who owns one and is looking for a waterpump, can anyone help as these vehicles are not in  great numbers over here so parts are a little hard to source, please contact me at tonyscott@live.com,  thankyou

I have a water pump for sale.

Saw it on the Facebook group, a little bit different to the Austin clamp  bolt.

Sad times, I've enjoyed those glossy magazines for decades but the latest and presumably last says on the front cover World Wide Arms are to cease trading on May 25th.  😒

Presumably partly due to the ever increasing complexities of the Deac  market and also the passing of the founder?

Apologies Steve just seen your message, here's one item, the rest you can see in 'See other items'.  I do have a spare hitch but not listed currently.

I have all this stuff including frame, will be on ebay next week.

The same type of trailer just sold has a rear compartment door and the view of trailer expert Louis (who's friend bought this) is that this was for a generator set so that it could be accessed easily. He has a picture of a wartime chassis plate for this type of trailer and thinks they were re-plated post war but retained the low 5 digit chassis number. He feels this was a wartime chassis with a late war or early post war body (Not to add fuel to the general obsession over war/post war question!)      Simon mentioned the British Army Data Book of Wheeled Vehicles including a 6kv generator on the standard 10cwt chassis used for GS, mortar and DF trailers.    I believe this is that type of trailer.

Still working my way around it but seems ok to me.    I am pretty sure its just a matter of time and it will bed in ok, change is always stressful for many.   I dont visit nearly as frequently now though like another comment above.  

Test using Richards method from your pc file not a hosting option.

Success!!

I'll give them a call thanks

The Missile is part of a display so sooner or later someone may decide to be awkward.

I have opened up the warhead to show its empty and will do my own cert.

Thanks.

Hi Folks,

Where can one obtain an FFE certificate without paying silly money please?

Its for an inert missile which I know is FFE but I'd prefer to have a certificate.

Thanks

Welcome

What a mess and very sad.

At Stoneleigh 2 weeks ago as far as I could tell there was no difference to a year ago ie - all specs were being sold Business as usual.

I did notice some new spec Thompsons with a tiny blob of weld holding the magazine in place, looked utterly ridiculous.

Very cool like it.

Makes perfect sense, keep us posted on updates.:-)

A friend sent me this link to an upcoming MV auction in Belgium

Online sale of GMC, Willy Jeep’s, Diamond, DAF, Dodge, Ward LaFrance Military trucks; Frauhauf, Ben Hur trailers; large quantity of parts on behalf of stakeholder

Great work Ron I really like these 2 pounders and theyre hard to come by.

Whats the wheel stud arrangement as it looks like 6 stud similar to British trailers?

I supplied some 'easy clean' wheels to a friend restoring one and I'm sure they were 5 stud Morris wheels. I know they came with solid wheels also.

Great news we love the old Hop Farm venue.

Can it become great again? I really hope so.

Lovely work, looks like a great design and fit.

Hi Marco its Carleton, great progress I saw pictures on Facebook also.

Nice picture of a GS trailer, my favourite type.

Possibly a signals unit.

Welcome. A lot of Oerlikons seem to have ended their service days in NZ. Beautiful Weapon.
