Hopefully this helps?

Some videos of the coming home event: Saracen 88 but not to its last resting place, it will be used for MOTH parades and events. Maintenance Saturdays will be a lot of fun!

More pics

Saracen on its way Saturday to its last resting place at the Gondar MOTH's Shellhole. More pics and videos to follow.

Saracen on its way Saturday to its last resting place at the Gondar MOTH's Shellhole

Sorry if there are duplicates. I maybe need to change the title?

Came across this today. Looks real nice! 2 x South African Saracen 88's.

A parade with all sorts!

Very nice

 

Are they still operated by the military or privately owned?

 

Cheers,

Terry

Military vehicles from a military museum.

South African parade,Saracens an some other interesting vehicles. I have more pics of other vehicles from the same parade but am hesitant to load it.

Long time, no see!

More pics of South African Saracens, two of which are Saracen 88's

Hi Terry,

I have no idea where you got these stock numbers from because neither the FV or NSN is shown in my Saracen parts book (Army code no 12259). But if they are for complete wheel stations then there is an error there, as they are grouped in mixes of left hand and right hand, Wrong! Left side has LH threads on wheels studs and Right side has RH threads. You had best check this out.

The master speaks! Thanks Richard!

More to follow.!

It looks a bit easier to work on, only just, compared to the Saracen! Looking good!

I think Rolls stuffed up with their Tech Manual photo, locking plate is wrong way around!

Experience shows! Good one on the noise though!

I entered "Tiger Moth plane" under Google and then selected "Images" Lots and lots of pics, some here and there with hangers in the background. I copied the link for you but it does not want to work here.

Yet another Saracen 88

Thanks, much appreciated! Amazing, why would they be different and in this order?

Not yet, we are more or less on the same par.

A garry for good measure and yet another Saracen 88

What's happening with yours, Montie?

Not too much lately, it has been winter but the weather is changing.

Saracen 88's rotting away!
