  5. Hi Terryo Jim's Mrs here,I've just made one for his Sankey (pics if u want).I could you make another but have no idea what they are worth. don't have army canvas though, we use PVC (fully waterproof+ rot-proof), various colours available. Post may be rather expensive; we're in the Pennines. Have trailer for measurements.

  6. looking for drive sprockets. wheel rims. track parts. warning plate of dash. headlights and a wombat.

    FORUMS FORUM has lots of very good info but wrong side of pond for for parts .tyres seem to be a problem original sizes 600x100 and 400x4 6ply, this one will only be a toy so going to try vauxhall space saver 115x70x16 and moblity scooter 400x4 4ply tyres .if spockets not available i can make them out of u.h.m.w.p.e which is a hard plastic, or can cast them in ally.
