Bodge Deep

Welcome, one beep to another!

There's plenty of us on here blessed with the beauties of of the Mount Road plant.

We'll probably cross paths at some event or other as I seem to get over to the N. East in mine from time to time... you'll know it when y'see it...:cool2:

...Well it's good,:-D,..... but NOT a Ferret, ~no spare wheel

~no drivers hatch

~front slope of hull wrong shape/angle

 

It looks rather like an Italian Autoblinda armoured car, I think.....

I'm hoping my girl will make me a Saracen cake for my 42nd, this year....:-D:cool2:

Huh... bl**dy lentil counters :noyay::whistle:

Thanksch for the great Commentsch Guysch,

 

Not Schure if you are just being Schilly, or really taking the Pisch...........

 

I like that about the Schpeeeeeedos LOl !

Schtop it... all of you

...ran !:mad:

Nothing to do with a jeep, but i've always liked this one as well, could be good for a caption competition...

Ken

Monty: Your face is familiar... do I know you :cool2:

Whilst the ball joints are not clear, this has been a favourite in the collection for a long time.

Ken

thats the one I was thinking of

Looks to have had an eventful war

Clearly a very brave chap.

Bless him...

...bless 'em all

I don't know if there was a sheet for fitting one... I've had mine on and off a few times... still got it, though the canvas has long since given up the ghost... I used bolts n wingnuts for on-and-offyness. There should be bars that bolt through the windscreen frame and the cab sides that the doors hang from and they latch through the frame... Still got all mine so yell if you get stuck and i can photograph bits if you need.

That'd be a shame... an ammunition trailer looks pretty solid too

the fully enclosed-with-doors-and-windows one?

Welcome Mathew

I'm sure you'll find what you're looking for amongst these pages...

Refuellers, follow me jeeps, bomb tractors, Flying Control Trucks...allsorts :cool2:

I can tell you where Monty's Rolls is.

In Monty's packed lunch?

Done...

Last I heard it was still there

Ken Smalls book The Forgotten Dead

is an excellent read and shows that determination can do wonders

highly recommended

From one Rupert to another, welcome :wave:

ISTR a photo of german prisoners being led away as Monty rides past in the back of a jeep...

One of the prisoners is doing a double take looking at Monty...:shocked:

He will have had one I just doubt that these are off it :-X

A chap in our group had one a while back. I'll pick his brain when I see him next...

Welcome Dan

Take a seat and enjoy

Welcome Martin

If buying big trucks is silly then you're in some pretty good company on here... silly away :cool2:

maybe we could trade for a bit... or stand around together and reenact the number 10 :cool2:

Im not short...:n00b:

You're just jealous of my Divine body...

Divining body, was that? :angel:

Most people buy flowers or chocs on Valentines day. Guess what I bought?.......................A US 81mm M1 Mortar complete! (Went to a Militaria fair first! Go to get your priorities right!)

She was not overly impressed.....I cant see the problem myself!???

Who's not Romantic? I, love it..............:nut:

You spoil that girl :kissoncheek:

Funny you should say that...

Bought this at an auto jumble yesterday...

not because I needed John Bull brand Control lever rubbers for a 30's motorbike

but because of the instructions... :cool2:

what lamp post?

I'm not sure when they (or even if they) went out of use...this is the British Army after all:cool2:

Ive got a couple and they're both 45 dated... although I've taken all the webbing off mine to make a radio rack :red:
