  1. i didn´t got it " bed last" yes, it means wide load, the t-34 is 3 meters and the rogers is 2,90 without load. over 2,60 needs bred last sign.
  2. its called jumbo trailer. we are alowed to have 24 meters truck-trailers also 2.60 wide. on cars and trucks older than 1976 we don need to have amber turnsignals front and rear. i put mine in the brake light bulb in the rear and in the blackoutlight in the front. i take uot the blackoutlens and replace it wit a clear glasslens.
  3. yes, they are mine. they came from somset. no problem with wife, i tell her i invest in diamonds. life is too short to have some wife to run your life and what you are interested of but you have to tell them from the beginning what kind of guy you are.
  4. a truckload of diamond t:s in the harbour of gothenburg, sweden august 2011.
  5. nice diamonds you got there. do you sell them or keep them after restoring?
  6. i have a new .040 piston but no rings and i have a used .020 with used rings.
  7. hi. i saw that in an ad for some years ago. i was thinking how it could run in normal speed because the rear ends are very sensitive higher speed. somebody told me that 40-45 km/h i the limit on the 11:66 ratio. please visit me when you are in sweden. im 100 km north helsingborg on E4 around markaryd.
  8. this is how an 981 radiator can look when you remove the top tank. i had to remove the bottom tank also because most cells were stuck with rust. it took a couple of hour to go thru it with different dipsticks and a tiny drill.
  9. this is no 4. it has a bad rod bearing. it is for this one i need an engine. i found one,thanks to ruggyjohn. we gonna change motor i this one in januray. it also need canvas & markings but that is on the shelf. the reason for the bearing failure was that previus owner drove it without oilpressure. problem was a clogged screen in the pan. wen i buy one i alwas check screen in pan and the radiator with often also is clogged or full of rustpieces from inside top tank.
  10. yes, thats the one that was on beltring. its an chevrolet el camino -59 on a volvo sugga chassie. 454 engine and a th400 transmission + volvos high & low transfercase. tire is 44". i built this -78.
  11. they are stored for the winter at 3 different places. i can take more pictures. the first one i bought was a 981 open thats still under frame of restauration.no 2 is the one with the barrel. it has no barrel anymore. no 3 is an open top bought from malmköping military museum here in sweden. no 4 is bought from england. its the one with the rogers and the t34. no 5 also bought from england. an open top. that is the one im restoring on previus pictures. no 6 and 7 from the same place in england. 2 open top, one need paint and canvas, the other one is very good, only need some tlc. i have decided to stop there when it comes to 981. i also look forward to line up 7 diamonds at my place. maybee we can have a meeting here.
  12. this is from the diamond t 981 im restoring now. the cab was very rusted. its not a bolt and nut restoration but it had been stripped down to the frame. i left the axles, engine and the transmissions in the frame.
