I am selling my cvrw polecat as a rolling braking  vehicle. the engine has been sold and there is interest on the gearbox. It has 0nly done 132 miles so its almost new .I don't wish to scrap it  at present but offer it as a   non runner display /exhibit. It is a lot lighter and can be moved with a vehicle like a Austin Champ or loaded onto a tilt lorry for shows. I am open to offers over £5000 before its listed on ebay

Hi  Richard

I Have decided to partly break the vehicle. The engine is sold, the gearbox has interest on it .The rest of the vehicleI would like to sell as a rolling  ,steering ,braking unit.

With it looking   like a  whole vehicle it could be transported to as a standing exhibit, It  is a lot lighter without the engine and gearbox  , I push it around with my champ so it could  go on a trailer  or as a display on a military lorry. It is open to offers  on HMVF before I list it on Ebay

Also try [ many landrovers ] on this site  he has an engine

Thanks Richard

It may get me out of a hole

Hi Richard

When I pull the engine off the gearbox and looking  where the fluid leaked from I found a hair line crack in the aluminium case. Once I investigated further and took off the cover it just broke in half .I have done lots of vehicles and have never seen this before,  The fluid coupling just moves oil so I think it must have been a flaw from new in the alloy as this vehicle has only done around 153 miles,  This was 293 of the 300 foxes made. and was at the tank museum 30 years ago

I am pondering to sell my  Fox polecat for spares . It has only done 153 miles road registered unfortunately it lost drive the fluid flywheel broke in half . At my age I dont want the hassel The Jaguar J 60 engine started ist time every time   and like all the vehicle  is almost new . there is a peak engineered turret with smoke launches.tyres still have the mould pips on them

The gearbox is excellent  and now is a rare item . If there is a keen interest this may be the rout i may take.

I  will appreciate comment on interest

I owned a CVRW Fox for many years and replaced the engine and gearbox with new ones .the gearbox was probably the last one  around as I have not seen them since. After selling it I got withdrawal  systems .and managed to get a CVRW

FOX POLECAT which is an amazing vehicle and has a peak engineered turret which  takes the top heaviness away from the vehicle. It was No 295 out of 300 foxes made. There does not seem any problems with the vehicle and its only done 

353 miles . It must have cost a fortune to build then it was sold off . 

Bit of an odd one for the forum I have a replica  musket      Its mostly cast alloy with realistic plastic wood. Looks good cocks and trigger closes . used as a toy or  re-enactment / theater 

there is a small  screw missing open  to offers over £10

thanks

Hi

I have always used copper grease on wheels , slit rims brake levers and anything that I will strip or the next person strips.

I use high temperature  spray oil on exhausts  . Lubrication make life easier.  

I  have a couple of boxes  of NOS hub gears eg sun wheels ,I think annulus, 2 hub s planet holders bearings .I also have a box of various hub parts covered in grease old stock probably need cleaning.  I have done a few centre bins for my Ferrets and friends Ferrets but they are a pain  and use a lot of sheet steel and take about  2 weeks to do. If you are interested I will send you some pictures

Laurence

Good luck with the v5 if you are doing it yourself.  DVLA will have you going around in circles. Get a club  or MVT involved, save time ,  and effort. It is so hard now
