Hello all,

I am after long term workshop & storage for my vehicles and collection, also have two shipping containers that would need to be placed outside. Anywhere around Ripon would be good. Anything condsidered.

Thanks

Dan

Gents,

Thanks, yes I might have a go at repairing it myself, I suppose I could make the strips where needed....

Is there any places where I can have a ww2 cam net repair carried out?

Thanks

Dan

Gents,

Just want to say thank you all your links...great help!

Regards,

Danny

Not for me but a local military museum, they are trying to locate one of these flamethrowers or parts of. I would imagine they are very rare but thought I would ask the question. You never know someone might have one in their shed

Thanks,

Dan

Gents,

Thanks for the emails and confirming how many there are, loads, I will check on line and see what I can come up with.

Adrain, just wondering if you got my g503 email?

Thanks again for your time on this matter,

Danny

Thanks Adrian,

I knew you would come to the rescue! I have also sent you a PM on G503 letting you know about the front fenders, but from this post they would be for a M4A4.

Thanks,

Danny

Hello all,

I am sure Adrain can give the number......I am trying to find originals, reprints, disk examples of Sherman M4A4 manuals, but unsure how many there actually are, service manuls, spare parts etc.

Thanks for looking and your time.

Regards,

Danny

I am trying tp find a engineering company in the north of England that can machine and work brass well? The fuel filter I have requires rebuilding on the bottom half as it has completely corroded and the out casing needs to be re- made. I have the inner piece tho.

Any advice?

Thank

If you can help please reply.

I would certain not normally do this!!! Due to time constraints this year with work I am not going to have time to complete some work needed on my DAC chassis( Already shot blasted). Sadly the gentleman who I would trust and want to do this work is very busy so after someone with the same ability, consideration of the vehicle, and sensible costing to do the work. The job itself would have to put into two phase, please note there is no fast timeline for this work to be completed by.

1) March I can get the chassis delivered.

weld cross member to chassis

shim steering unit up

fixed metal banding on rubber seal on wheel station

weld and repair to cracks on chassis

fit rear steering unit

free handbrake button

fit new rubber bump stops

Phase 2 -Fit brake parts and wheel stations brought down refurb late this year.

Fit new brake lines

Brake unit COMPLETE, inc pedals, pipes, units

refit and wheel stations. Refurbed

Stud snapped on outer bevel unit

If you can help I look forward to your reply. Please message and not ring as away at present and can give you more details.

Thanks

Danny

Iain,

They were part of the Falklands defences from WW2, they were left there by the Yorkshire Regiment and were bogged in, they are in a real remote part of the mountains.

Thanks

Danny

Good day to you all,

At the beginning of this year I was freezing my bits off down in the Falklands with work,whilst there I did some work with the defence force guys down there. One of its members was a keen military vehicle restorer and had some Argey captured vehicles and had also restored some pieces for the museum at Stanley. We exchanged contact details but I have mislaid them.

If the gentleman is on here or anyone knows him could they please PM me.

Thanks

Danny

Hiya all,

I am trying to track a old boy down that lives near Conway, N Wales, I am not sure if he is on here but somebody might know him. Cannot even remember his name but can describe him!

If you would like to ping me a PM I will explain abit more.

Thanks

Dan,

Hiya,

Singe,

I thought you would be replying to this thread, thanks. If you have any gauges for sale please let me know? The other big thing I need is a engine cover.

Thanks,

Danny

Need to get a full set of dials including speedo for my DAC. I know Jaeger made these but was wondering what is the official name for the types of gauges needed to go in. It's so when I speak to the companies I can give them the correct info.

Thanks,

Danny
