restoration Leyland Martian Fv1103A
marvinthemartian replied to marvinthemartian's topic in Blogs of MV restorations
Next, n/s strip and repair. Remove woodwork first, most of which needs replacing. Job for later. Remove all the old rusty steelwork, and replace with new. -
restoration Leyland Martian Fv1103A

Well, not updated this for awhile. So cracking on again, started to repair rear body steelwork. O/s first then strip n/s to do same. Also stripping back flaky paint from the chassis and coating in a good cover of red oxide. Favourite tool is the needle descaler. Quality rot as you can see. And in with the new. -
Keruing Wood may be worth looking at for replacements.

Hi Rob, welcome aboard.

Would anyone know what the RAL or BS number is for the colour of the no 2 and 3 cookers. Not the original vulgar green but later one. Looking at colour charts the closest it seems to me is BS 284 Spruce Green, but is it? TIA Simon

Looking good Sam. -
I have a load of ht leads that I don't know what they fit. Four types of lead. Firstly, these are approx 23" long, braided under the black covering. Secondly, these are approx 14.5" long. Thirdly, these are approx 10" to the elbow, all are marked 1 on the band. I think maybe Land Rover? Lastly these two are approx 24" long. All help appreciated.

I've had these in the shed for quite a while, can anyone shed(no pun intended) any light on which gun they were for, or a general use item. Several different pieces, size etc.
