    you thinking of getting one the data plate is on the left side of the fighting compartment wall about 12" down from the centre of the turret ring and is a flat plate about 6"x3" rick

    i feel for you with that engine, i'm having a flathead rebuilt and it's costing me a small fortune but if it's any consolation i've always thought that if you do it right first time you never have to do it again. hey! it's only money rick

    13 grand for a good one so it might be worthwhile if someone has the time.

    last year i dragged a couple of other fella's off the forum to go and have a look for the other tank but after a days search in the most likely areas we found nothing, which isn't surprising as the trees were planted very close together and you can only see a few feet, on the bright side it looked like they were clearing the forest so it might turn up one day soon. the kids that saw the tank described it as the "one with the small turret" maybe a covenanter ? i hope somebody finds it and restores it rick

    Bob the "following orders" excuse didn't work at nuremburg, so you've bugger all chance of it working in wigan. let's just say we were both led astray by another well known tanker. anyway it's steel not kryptonite so it'll go back on easily enough. rick ps. thanks adrian
  21. eddy8men

    that will be the post war mods coming off, like the tow bracket and exhaust fishtails on the back and the tow rope stowage brackets on the front but apart from that, nothing to report rick
  23. eddy8men
    nothing to report i'm afraid, we're still waiting to get the hull blasted and painted then things can start to move on again. rick
