    It certainly has age to it. Bit of browning to edges and creases. It was actually in a WW2 US technical manual book.

    Any idea what sort of time period this would be?

    Found this in a old book and wondered if it has any worth or use.

    Hi guys, can someone id this bag for me. Thought it might be for mess can but can`t find a similar one

    That seat nut should be internal not on the outside of the tubing. I think all Mb`s from 43 onwards had the spare wheel rest fitted so yes there should be a pre drilled hole however a lot of repro jeep panels come without holes.

    Had similar problem, used Castrol 20/50 classic and tick over pressure is fine now. Probably is as Nick said your oil getting thin when hot.

    Been looking into these for a while but no joy identifying what they are. Tried US militaria forum and no help. I thought muzzle covers, they measure about 4" wide by 7" long. Any ideas?

    Have a look at this link https://forums.g503.com/viewtopic.php?t=171612 Talks about higher numbers, might help. Is there any over paint on data plates? if not it may suggest they have been of before repaint.

    I had a similar problem with a jeep that had sat for 18 months. turned it over but didn`t get any fuel to the pots. Tried everything but no joy. towed it behind the van and it fired after about 10 seconds! not sure what the problem was but doubt e10 would be the reason

    Tent repair

    phil.c replied to phil.c's topic in MV Chatter

    Think so but a few numerous bad repairs and a Couple of big rips. Would be ok if I had a long arm sewing machine.

    Tent repair

    Hi, looking for some tips on repairing a US canvas tent. What glue is suitable

    Thanks, had a good look into it. Possibly white rope has been changed as its about 9mm thick.

    Thanks, can`t see anything in their listings that look quite the same. will drop them a email.

    Hi fellas, trying to match up a few missing ropes for my small wall tent door flaps. Think they are around 3/8, 9mm thick? Can only find nylon rope but still not in right size. Any idea what original is made of? Phil

    I want to rewire my Bantam trailer but not sure on what wire to use. Does 6v have to be thicker? would appreciate any advice and where I might get some. Phil

    Hi all, picked up the above bike a while ago with intention of refurbing and maybe passing it on but have realised a lot of its parts may be the same as the para bike. Wheels, brake grips, handle bars, crank etc seem to be right. Am I wasting my time for someone just to strip it afterwards.

    A company called crossfire do a half decent steel copy at a reasonable price, based down in Sussex I think

    Trying to source a 3 core cable similar to the one on my trailer. Its around 12mm overall thickness with rubber sleeve, I managed to slip over a asphalt sleeve which looks good. Problem is the wiring is getting a bit old and could do with changing. All i can find in the right size is stuff like cooker cable. Would this be any good for a 6v system?

    Will be looking for a few spares for BC1000 if anyone wants to sell, Handset and probably straps to start with. Phil

    Just found another one for sale on Milweb for £750,
  24. phil.c
    It probably was, there is one on Ebay asking price £2361.79! from a guy in Sebia
  25. phil.c
    That sounds cheap. I have found a sale for £1000 over a year ago, admittedly it had all the extras. Have prices slumped or was that over the top?
