Enigma

So its partly CRAP?🤣

I already thought it was wrong.....to have it in there.😳

Butt (😚),  who am I to judge.

I like the weathering and action that goes on. Well done

Like it. You don't see those in the flesh a lot so cool to see a model of it.

Dragon wagon for sure.

They look like repro's from seller Cunnard on ebay to me.

Hope Jon's OK, he's not been online for a while now. 

Hopefully he's ok.

Well, not that bad but my hands were black and greasy after helping removing the gearbox from my brothers jeep.

Things do tend to get a bit too busy at times don't they. Especially with too many projects.

You could even circumvent it by filming your screen. Not the best quality but still.

Looking good.

Just goes to show that you can keep busy on the same vehicle. if you want.

That is impressive, great to see a vehicle doing what it was intended for.

The transporter I presume, not the tank. People might get upset when you use a tank for its intended purpose...

OK, I'll get my coat.😳

IIRC WW2 Dodge and GMC windscreen has the same profile.

My brothers M201 had something similar. From memory...It ran until the batterys were discharged after first loosing headlamps.

It wasn't charging. I think it was the regulator? The rectangular electricity box of magic tricks...

After Brexit I wonder how many exhibitors and traders from the mainland would attend anyway.

IIRC we asked and got a refund last year.

Hi Jane, we must be cousins somewhat removed, Sidney was a cousin of my grandmother Florence.

If you have any info regarding Sidney you may sent me a message.

Bugger... I meant we didn't in WW1 (Great war).😳

Many French,German,Belgian, Dutch farmers at the start of WW2 would have been trained  'tankers' during WW1  & after.    Start of WW2 I would say these blokes could all drive whatever tanks were available at short notice .  They could have been civvy/army trained mechanics or used their own farm agricultural tractor experience. If not a loader/gunner - there were a few methods of direct fire using  "Open-sights" - so yes , your story-line is very plausible.

The Dutch didn't fight in WW2 and in 1940 we had 1 (one!) tank which we were testing for practicle usage. A FT17.

I seen 43rd and 53rd divs. Both of which fought near my town.

Cool models, well done.

I know the feeling. I'm part way through at least 4 vehicle projects, it's not always easy to stay motivated!

I agree. Restoration or fabrication can look like a hill too big to climb. Good luck.

HT's like these  were still in operation as such when 1 of our Apaches ran into powerlines in 2007

Guess I am a young person now..

It is possible to use of the shelve eyelets like you find in supermarkets sometimes.

Looks OK on one side and works.

A pity it won't be recoverd. As it was intentionally scuttled instead of sunk with crew its not a war grave. But a historical find none the less.

Its a good thing some scammers are just plain stupid.
