I have the cards from The Tank Museum [ATTACH=CONFIG]77939[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]77940[/ATTACH]

What about military tent heaters with a flue?? I have one of those I wouldn't use it overnight myself its just plain common sense. I bought mine to keep me warm in the winter while I was working under canvas. I've experienced carbon monoxide poisoning from an old house not fun.

If its cotton canvas I wouldn't like to power wash it all that will do is destroy the fibres and more importantly wash any waterproofing off. If its been sealed / waterproofed before the dirt might be ingrained or stuck to the canvas.

Not sure if its a radial engine or an inline engine if it was the first I suspect that most of the cylinders would be removed in the ditching. At the moment it doesn't look that good and I'll be surprised if it doesn't soak up more money than expected. I would like to hope that they had a contingency plan for any unexpected issues. I do hope that it is better than it looks at first glance now that they have raised it from the sea. I only wish that it looked as good as some of the aircraft that have been raised from the Norwegian Fjords and Russia. This is one of the aircraft I was thinking about just for how it looks visually http://navalairhistory.com/2012/11/23/heinkel-he115-brought-into-the-sun-at-sola/

Not that good it looks to be falling apart. Crash damage or raising? http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2339105/Ghost-plane-flies-deep-Last-WW2-Dornier-bomber-plucked-seabed-Kent-73-years-shot-down.html

Bumpers and winches have been about plus the transfer box? have been available as well, I'm sure someone will have one advertise on Milweb.

I just bin them same as the bank ones, its fishing trip

Commander in the turret with comms should be the last resort in this case then! As a thought try walking backwards with an AFV trundling along behind you not easy as you're trying to marshal a vehicle moving forwards and looking forward at the same time. An extra bod walking behind the vehicle watching the crowd might be useful? Comms in vehicles I have seen people driving about in AFV's without them on at War and Peace and the like its worth having them as an extra pair of eyes who can communicate with the driver if something untoward happened.

No under run bars needed mine doesn't have them fitted and its been to a VOSA testing station and subsequent MOT's for its MOT. Different VOSA stations interpret the rules how they feel :banghead:

As soon as you have it at home insure the vehicle on the chassis number. Contact VOSA they will talk you through how to register with them for the first MOT you will need the chassis number for this. If it passes the MOT you should be on the way to registering the vehicle with the DVLA. As an aside NOVA is bobbing along in the background see here which might make it difficult for you to register the RB44 you really need the cast certificate or I sense trouble ahead. Get onto to Withams and pester them for the cast form. No cast form no money MVT verification officer will be able to say when it was built and supply that to the DVLA.

Nice and tidy

If its off Withams it should have the cast certificate which normally is needed to register the beast. It can be done another way through the MVT vehicle verification officer local to you for a fee. Withams for some reason seem not to want to pass this on. The plates for vehicle weights, axle loadings and chassis / vin number is on the drivers side step area. Its worth taking a pictures of the various plates to forward to the DVLA / Vosa. Do you plan on converting into a camper or r you planning on leaving it as it is? Is the comms body empty or full of Clansman type of equipment? Depending on what you want to do it will either have to be MOT'd and plated at a VOSA test station or if converted into a camper and then MOT'd as a class 7 motor home.

Thats where the shock wave came in they didn't mention that they were at home when EOD detonated it

Not very well it would seem, I went past the regional office near old trafford football ground in Stretford (not Manchester) and the queue was out the front door and around the side of the building. Still a need for regional offices yet the public will be fobbed off with someone on the phone at the DVLA in Swansea.

I have a few bits to touch up and if I had enough paint I would spray the box body sides again. I wish I had sprayed the faded flaps that cover the sockets for the Clansman plugs. [ATTACH=CONFIG]77578[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]77579[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]77580[/ATTACH]

Painted for the most part the box body still needs repairing but its painted. The fact that a blind mans or womans guide dog could have sprayed it to higher standard than I could is here nor the.... pic to follow

Privatise them maybe they will start to work for us instead of against us

Booked in with the RB44

This could happen to any of us at a show, you have to feel for the family and the driver. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-cornwall-22801383

I was eluding to it :angel:

Yes you guessed it its the Daily Mail commentating on a film set in Northern Ireland but filmed in Blackburn Lancashire http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2336722/Blackburn-street-transformed-Belfast-1970s-create-hellish-scenes-sectarian-violence-height-The-Troubles-new-film.html

Let me just go and find one of those smiley face jobbies :banghead::banghead::banghead: Talk about overkill

Its being painted over tomorrow

Thanks the aluminium is holed The paint on the vehicle not the comms body is nato green but when I sand it down even just lightly it changes to a red colour weird (IIR paint)??
