i was there a couple of years ago and the 3 arv's were still there as well as the gun tank without the gun. i can't see them being moved due to there shear size.

cheers

due to get it dropped off on saturday so will have a proper shufti at it then and get some pics up. seems ideal with diff locks and a pto on the box and a design weight of 55 ton but plated at 44t

i've just aquired a 6x4 foden with perkins engine and fuller gearbox, which should do nicely once i've got it through MOT. so still looking for a trailer if anyone has any leads i'd appreciate it. cheers rick

i was told by a mate they wanted 12 scout carriers, good luck with that

welcome and keep up the good work, i've just bought an A 10 cruiser wreck which would make an ideal paper model kit

thanks al

new track often comes with a black bitumen preservative coating. when i rebuilt my T16 i used roofing bitumen paint with a bit of black gloss chucked in and thinned down with petrol. the end result looked great, black but not "painted" looking and the new owner tells me the tracks still look good 2 years later

2 on otterburn near the milan range

thanks, i was hoping someone would do a before and after pic

great pics of the churchill. i hope to recover it one day. cheers

i'd love to get on kirkcudbright one day

kirkcudbright is probably the best range in the uk for ww2 british vehicles. i look forward to your posts. cheers rick

i'd like to take the cromwell. would this be possible ? rick

shaun hindle is restoring it at this moment and if it's not that one then it's very similar or at least was

thanks nick i already have the trailer saved in myebay i missed out on another trailer a few days ago. just got to get some cash together

still looking although i don't have the money yet but i'll scratch it up from somewhere. anyway the plan so far is to buy a 6x2 tractor unit with enough mot left to get me through to the end of the season. that's a fairly simple process as there's plenty around for under £5k. the tricky bit is getting a low loader with mot for the right money. if anyone knows of any could you let me know. cheers i was talking to a friend that drives for a living and he loves his stralis so i might go down that route, although i don't think you can go far wrong with any modern truck as long as it has plenty of test left on it

i know rex cadman had some barrels not long ago.

andrew is certainly setting the standard for valentine resto's. i think the army just took off what they needed and everyone else did the rest

salt water and steel don't mix. but fresh water isn't as bad this valentine came out of a river in india

cavalier on morfa beach near port talbot. apparently the tank got stuck whilst making the propaganda film "nine men"

another matilda on braunton burrows

tanks on beaches. here's the remains of a matilda. somewhere in scotland i think.

i'll soon be working on a tank with the same suspension and just wanted to say you're pictures and detailed explanantions will be a great help. thank you for taking the time to be so thorough. rick
