Will be for sale, but want to know more about it first

Anyone know any thing about this instrument? For what kind of artillery?
How common is it?

Hello

Would I be allowed to use some of your photos in the Norwegian MV magaine Mud & Snow for an article about vehicles in Norway pre WWII ? The magaine is the clubmagaine of the norwegian MV club, so not a commercial magazine.

redits will of course be given, and an example of the magazine can be sent to you

BEst regards

We relocated the Dennis today driving it 61 miles to its new home in Leicester.

As readers will remember lack of storage space has been a problem for us so it has been residing with our very good friend Mick in Gamlingay for the last year or so. On Saturday it was driven about 25 miles to Woburn Sands and today we took it to its new home. It was an tiring but trouble free journey up the A5 and took about 4 hours to complete with one quick stop on the way to fill up with water. Here are a few photos of the day:

Good to see you back Rolf - we were just about to auction off your pint glass that's in the Clubhouse Bar!

Thanks Jack, but remember, never sell a walking mans pint glass...

Thanks Hanno

I even have bought me a C15 and getting it home sometime in the spring. But will not have time for it until late fall...

Ohh... and do still have some of my other vehicles, and got a pile of motorcycles... so definitly back

Rolf

David, e-mail you street adress.

Rolf

Hello folks. I am back

To you who have tried to contact me via e-mail, I have lost all my e-mails and adresses, so please try once more at rolf@hustegning.no

I will slowly put out some MCC parts when I find time to do so, and have put up for sale Pistons in the for sale part here at HMVF, so check out.

I will not have time to search in the stock for special items due to much work and hopefully building my new house, so be patient and check in for sale part here.

And to you who bought some pistons earlier, I have found a new scrapper ring for you so please e-mail me and it will be in the postal system asap.

Rolf

Do you have a part number for the seal?

Perhaps I have some in my stock.

Rolf

An idea to get broken bolts out is to weld a nut on it... that means put a nut on top and weld inside it.. but guess that is not an option in thsi case since you would not use heat due to the rubber boot.

And I do have some od bolts and things that followed the MCC parts I did buy. Perhaps I have one bolt for you if you put out a picture and size og it..

Rolf

Jukka

Many very nice pirctures you have taken. I am always so amased seeing all the big dioramas people put up.

Would be nice to bring my Chevrolet to Beltring one Year. Hopefully the ferry from Norway to Newcastle is back soon....

But perhaps I must do with an airfligt to England one Year soon, and just camp in a little tent at the show.

Rolf

Just marvelouse

Here are a few of today, ill do some more tomorrow.

Hi JeeperFINN

Nice to know there will be more Chevrolets up and going

Last time I was at Beltring was back in 2007 and did take pictures of all the Chevrolets I didd find. I think there might be 8 to 10 Chevrolets there every Year so theyh are not that many of them.

I do not know of any extra bed for them, but for sure if I find one I'll inform you.

Make sure you take a lot of pictures at the show and put them out here.

Have a nice trip to the worlds biggest show

Rolf

That I appreciate very much !!!!

I plan to start restoration on my Chev 1,5 ton so it would be nice to be able to kit it out with some cargo too...

And at our meeting last month, somebody finaly started with dioramas. And this have given me a kick to get all my stuff down from the shelfs and show them and make a diorama of some sort..

Rolf

q: does this jeep have four whell drive only on the rear wheels or also four wheel drive on the front wheels too??

And since I live in Norway a right hand driven Chevrolet C60L is not that common... But when I was polled over by the road legals for an inspection they did not bother to check if there was any light on the truck. Their consern was that "why are you sitting on that side?" Well the steering wheel is her I told them... Answer: "yeah I see that, but you must sit on the left side when driving it..."

And then he wanted to check it to see if it had any good working brakes... So I climed out, and he in.. And nothing happend... "The gaspedal is not working" he told me.... I think you are allredy testing the brakes I replied.. The gas pedal is in the middel.. Then he just looked at me and climbed out.. "Have a nice trip" and he went away...

Rolf

Hi all

Wish I could be at the War and Peace Show.. but perhaps another Year...

What I hope many of you do, is to take many pictures off all the dioramas that use to be there... and put them out here..

And that someone also takes pictures off all the wooden crates and the markings on them.. I want to make some... so something on the pictures that make me able to get the size of the crates would be nice ;-) And I am "looking for" those crates that are a bit bigger than the ration crates..

Have a very nice stay at the show !!!!

Rolf

That is a nice list Radek

I did clean up the German can, and did even find the "20" that denotes the wight of it full. It is 20 for gasoline and 24 for water. But my mark is on top of it. Did read some where it was supposed to be down at one of the wide sides....

Regarding the square can, a friend of mine here in Norway told me that he did think it could be a Canadian can. Or a post war Norwegian since he did think they also was produced here for a short while...

Well have been able to clean up some of my US cans and had a coating off OD on to them. Guess I need to order some stencils :-)

Hi Gordon and Howard

Yes it is too nice to sit and rot. The bloke who owns it is not into MV's, but he for sure knows what he wants for it. I will try to get there and have a better look at it early next month. And then get some better pictures.

And since I am trying to sell my two GMC's I am stuck with a tiny Chevrolet 1,5 ton so it is out of the question to be able to use the trailer.

So perhaps it should have been brought to Beltring as soon as the ferry starts up once more... That is, the ferry from Bergen to Newcastel..

Here is another picture of the trailer.

Hi Rolf I'm looking for an 'NG' or 'PSC' British Jerry can if you can help ? 1944 prefered. Thanks Ian

Hi Ian

I only have BMB and W&W cans.. Sorry

Rolf

I think that is cheap. We pay from £10 - 15 and upwards for a nice jerrycan.. That is for a wartime. German cans of course the most expensive. I do have managed to get a few english POW cans too, but they seem to be a bit more far between here in Norway. But you guys have lots of them..

Rolf

Hi Ian

I have several british jerrycans and will have a look for what you want...

Rolf

Hey

Did have a look at some of my jerrycans today. And have dessided to give them some tlc...

The first one I have never seen elsewhere...

The second one with Teresso on also have a nice spout (?). I think Teresso is some sort of lubrication for generators..

The last one still have its original paint. A little wash and it looks great I think..

Any ideas??

Hi folks.. long time since last

I was offered this Fruehauf a few days ago. Will go and have a closer look at it sometime this summer. But my problem is I do not have any Diamond T to haul it... and not the proper lisence to drive such a big truck... hmm what to do then.. ??

Would be nice if it could be used with a fifth wheel on a truck.. then I actually could drive it legaly I think... if it combined is not more than 12,5 tonnes including the load..

Rolf

I am not fine, because I will not be at Beltring this year.

But would be better if it was a web cam or two at the show....

Anyone ever been thinking of this?

Rolf
