    I have a V5C for a 'Alvis Scorpion Tank'. The vehicle has long been gone to the Americas some 25 years ago. Worth a thought.....

    Thank you both. It is bit grim and I note that it has been around for 37 years, it could be 'done up' though.

    Here is my .30 cal tripod that I wish to sell. It appears that our wonderful friends at Ebay do not wish to avail themselves of my business, perhaps they have too much money.... It is in good order with the pintle mount and the elevation/traversing apparatus. £280 will purchase it.

    This shows the starting apparatus that is used to spin the B61 Ferret (ish) engine over,

    Today I have had one briskly turning over by two 12v battery's. I have yet to have a go with the others, however I am not attempting to start them.

    Richard I had heard that they were used for starting jet engines. I have no idea how that was accomplished. There seemed to be a few around as I saw about half a dozen at a farm near Chester a few years ago.

    This is the best B61 out of the four that I have. It was reconditioned in 1974, you see it as it done then ready for service.
  10. Bob Grundy
    Thank you for that, I will e-mail now....
  11. Bob Grundy

    A friend is restoring T16 Carrier and wishes to know>>>> What is the correct new type alloy radiator he should obtain ?
  15. Bob Grundy
    I and some friends made two vehicles: German A7V and a Carden Loyd MG Carrier. Nothing wrong with that at all. Just don't pass them off as real ones.....

    The Rolls Royce B61 is more powerful than the B60 used in Ferrets and Pigs. B60 4.2lt & 120bhp and the B61 is 4.8lt & 140bhp. Would any one be interested in the B61, I will be getting some take-outs shortly.

    GMC

    Bob Grundy posted a topic in American Vehicles

    On Sunday I went to visit a woman I have known since the 1960's. In her paddock she has this GMC that was a runner before it was sheeted up. I recall tat she said that it was used on the film Saving Private Ryan. It is located near St Helens, Lancashire. She may sell it. PM me if of interest.

    Thank you both. Is it any use to someone, its no use to me.

    I have discovered this gun part wrapped up and in grease. There is a label with it but I cannot make out what it reads. There is number '5002428', Possibly a Bofors part, but I am unsure....
  21. Bob Grundy
    I missed the very short word 'to'..........

    I am looking for a complete set of 432/Abbot track pads (180), can anyone help please ?
  24. Bob Grundy
    I went to view yesterday, all items pretty grim. I worked if you spent £1000 then there would be an additional £380. I will not bother at all,
