a ac/dc TIG is really the best thing but £££'s .... before you do anything clean with something like brake cleaner , to make it really clean , and don't touch it afterwards the grease from your hands will contaminate it .... i use the wurth panel bond , 3M do a similar kit but i can't remember the part number , it works very well on non structual areas .. swage it and bond it can be rubbed/sanded down when it's set and is very strong , they use it for bonding roof skins/quater panels on a lot of cars ...

hi thanks i'm only guessing at 'supacat ' , i found one sticker on it but it had been painted over/ rubbed away , all my best tricks to recover the writing didn't work unfortunatly ....

hi could anybody shed any light on my 6x6 , i think it maybe a supacat , but can't find any pics or info .... it runs a 2 cylinder citroen engine and gearbox, it also appears to have a drive coupling from the engine pully , its a full skid steer the front wheels are fixed straight ( ie they dont turn like later supacats ) ,chain drive , an ally hull , the back (not shown) it flat and hinges upward from the rear .... i've made up most of it by matching parts , cleaning and servicing bits and making bits from scratch , i'll post up some more pics at the weekend when i can get it out in the open..... any help would be great , many thanks phil :-D

i can't find any makers mark , i've got a badly stamped number on the body though , the 2 cylinder (2CV i quess ) look's like the genuine artical ,the exhaust ,mounts,etc all look pretty manufactured rather than made up ....

:laugh: workshop in matfield , home in the woods robertsbridge :-)

thanks :-) it's not the biggest bit of kit but should be fun , i just need to work out what it is , and where to post it on here , what do you think it should come under? ... tracked :nut: :-)

i think i've worked it out

just a quick hello from down in east suusex i run my own bodyshop 3 miles away from the war and peace site and having worked on a few military vehicles and camped at the show a few times i thought i'd better get my own vehicle .... so i started off with a vw beetle staff car replica , then a swb land rover and now a ...... well i'm not sure what it is :nut: it seems to be a french argo cat ?? 6 wheel drive, skid steer with an ally hull and 2cv mechanics , i'll get some pics up once i've worked out the pic bit ..... so i'll be bothering everyone for info and help , sorry in advance .... phil
