If that is the case... how does this company sell armoured vehicles? https://www.panzer-handel.de/ Presumably nothing they sell is covered by the scope of the law? Tim

Yep... stick to the Centaur stuff please!

Any Firefly Gun parts are of interest. Top of the list is a breech block. Cheers Tim

From the booking form... A £35 facility fee is payable for each military vehicle entry. Each vehicle entry entitles you to two adult passes Extra passes above the 2 adults are available @ £30 per adult, Children are free with an adult (0-15 inclusive). Support vehicles – There will be a fee of £30* for anyone bringing a support vehicle and these will be parked in the designated on-site parking area. So, I read that as £35 per MV entered - which includes 2 x adult passes, with Children under 16 free... and £30 per support vehicle, with £30 per additional adult not on the MV entry.

Put a wanted advert on Milweb.net and see who contacts you.

Hmm... I wonder if that would fit on the coax mount on the Firefly!

There are some documents which link the T number with the vehicle serial number... but you'll be damn lucky to find one with the serial number you have... stuff like vehicle inspection reports and vehicle log books. The Canadian archives are quite good for vehicle documents - maybe you will be lucky there - if it has known Canadian history of course. Tim

Whatever you stick on top... make sure it is suitably covered when out on the road - or better still not mounted. Don't want to scare the hell out of some member of the public... the last thing any of us need is a new set of regulations concerning what we can or cannot do with our kit.

Surely you just need to spread a load of towels out to claim your patch ;-)

Wow... lovely to see in such untouched condition... hope it goes to a good home and not someone hell-bent on a complete rebuild which will lose the originality.

This one too... WS18 Mk1 I think given the battery plug cover on the side under the aerial mount.

Just did a quick search on google for "Radio operator Walcheren" - which produced this pic - not the one I was thinking of - but similar... hope this helps... note top of WS18 radio.

IIRC, the right angled mouth-pieces are more correct for WW2 period... certainly were found on the microphone for the WS11 and WS18 in period photos.

I have had these in original paint and Brown over the years - might have a pic still - will have a rummage.

mmmm..... nice!

Definitely 75mm Pack Howitzer case.

I have enough projects at the moment... consider me if you ever change your mind. Cheers Tim

If it were me... I'd have moved the wall to the other end of their garage.

Nice find. Might be tempted if you plan to part with it. It looks cosy and moderately practical. Tim

Ok. No probs. Am sure it will do the job just fine.

Do you have a better photo of the Microphone in this set up please. Would be useful to know before I go rummaging for the one I have which may be what you need. Tim

Pretty sure I have the hand microphone for that tannoy setup. Tim
