Oh to be a kid again, I don't think pester power would ever have bought a mini tank though...... The giant pool in the catalogues never appeared so what hope for a tank

A good reason to buy one then :-D

Corsec has the right to criticise and air his views on whether he thinks its right and wrong, thats his right its supposedly what our Grandfathers, Grandmothers and relatives fought for in WW2 plus the wars that came after. You don't have to agree with him. I can't see the point of building a replica when you can find one on the seabed, if you had to build another Do 17 it would cost far in access off £300000 if you had to pay the full price up front without volunteer helpers. Whether what comes up from the seabed is worth £300000 only time will tell, the museum certainly won't say that it is junk they will ask for more money to help with the restoration.

We have Metrolink tram lines on the main road now all fully energised and trams running upon them. So no aerials on the Ferret any more.

Its your vehicle if you want to do the mods so be it I hope they make life easier which is obviously the intention.

Surely it will be a coffee from a well known chain invading the country. Jack you are getting paid to advertise them aren't you

No worries Tony I'm happy that you could help me out

He might as well have done with it and have a onesy or whatever its called called made with costa coffee splashed all over it.

When I was a nipper the lady next door and her husband used to say that during the Manchester blitz they had to run out at night and cover the incendiary (spelling)? bombs with sandbags. They have both passed away (thirty years ago) that little snippet almost died with them. More of those mundane things have already gone out of living memory. I know where corsec is coming from I'm not particularly in favour of the Tank Museums efforts with the Tiger Tank when we have British vehicles not running and rusting in the storage yards. As collecting goes I can understand where the RAF museum and the Tank Museum our coming from, they want a complete collection that shows the victors side and the losing side of WW2.

I have had the receipt for the vehicle off Withams it doesn't come with the cast note as I suspect that was supplied to ABRO when it was sold to them. I asked Withams over the phone specifically if they would supply the cast certificate they said they would over the phone, they haven't.

Great pictures they might come in handy :-D

Rap never was music its just shouting and some turkey constantly bashing a drum loudly all the way through. Just my opinion I didn't like it when I was a kid still don't Facebook has a place it just might not be your kind of place. All the pictures you upload to Face/book, twitt/er, you-tube and others become the property of the company hosting the pictures. Its in the small print for face-book when you sign up Nothing for free they all have shareholders who want you're pictures and videos and behaviour on line for marketing purposes.

I've towed the wide and narrow tracked 'sankey' trailers in the position it is on you're RB without any issues. Do you plan to do any major off roading with the trailer attached?

Rick Bondo-ing it not likely to expensive when you can use plaster that's readily available

Try blipping the accelerator pedal before you put it in 2nd gear, also change the oil in the gearbox. I found that I had issues with it going in gear from 2nd to 3rd and blipping the throttle made it easier. When the oil in the gearbox was changed it also helped with gear changes. Its probably a good idea to change as many fluids as you can as you don't know when they were last changed. Some RB44's had been sat for years before they moved to Withams.

Nice one looks great, the gearbox takes a bit of getting used to

Slick :-)

Looks good a bit of work with the needle gun and it will look great

Agreed on that one

What about originality lol

Never got round to fitting it, its somewhere in my bits honest :-D

Hi Tony, Big thanks its appreciated Andy

Matt let me put temptation in your way http://www.mod-sales.com/auction/vehicle/related/53878/AFV_-_Striker_CVR(T).htm You know you want too

Its that MVT group in Manchester tracked vehicles everywhere, if you don't have a tracked vehicle you feel left out :nut:
