  1. Have you emailed the Signals Museum. They have volunteers who are excellent with info and details.
  2. Your not wrong, the Char came back when building was complete. It had been originally used by the Germans on the Island so had some relevence. There is a Kubelwagon in air-con storage held by the Guernsey war tunnels trust/museum.
  3. Sounds like the plot for a Clive Cussler Novel.

    Your vehicles wouldn't look out of place, as there are quite a few post war vehicles in the display. It's a nice show except when it rains.

    But aren't you a student at the moment? I think there is a bye law concerning drink and being a student. And not being allowed to abstain.
  7. RAF Regiment had small detachment of Rapier.
  8. We enjoyed it, although problem with the routemaster and went on the coach. Had reet problems dragging my three year old daughter away.

    Yes, missed an opportunity.:red:

  11. I don't think foreign governments, bar the major arms dealers have got the same mind set about selling off surplus. Also depends on deals made with the manufacturer. Land Rover/MOD might have insisted on scrapping at end of service life so not to flood a potential market for new vehicles. I have the MOD Disposals Policy, and it is sell sell sell, as you are probably aware when looking at Withams/Jacksons et al.
  12. Sharky, they are available, they have fits and bursts of price fluctuations. At present they are about £150. try the British Ordnance Collectors forum. Or if desperate, i can ask a friend of mine who seems to be able to source ordnance. pm if interested.
  13. Mr. Pearson, i think you are the one with the knowledge to do a Valentine one.

    Hi there, i went along to the show. Not bad, nice vehicles. My three year old daughter said i can buy a bus.
  16. I am in awe at the standard of conservation and reconstruction of vehicles such as this. In a related way, I have been searching for a piece of film about a project I have on at the moment and found this footage on the Pathe film archive. Therefore this film isn't for the feint hearted. http://www.britishpathe.com/record.php?id=3327
