it looks like two four cylinder engine combined back to back. As the exhaust ports in the cylinder open into the crankcase-is the exhaust vented out through a hollow driveshaft?

Hi Bob, L3A1 is the british practice grenade, I think the screw in fuse/ handle top has slots either side of the flange that this would fit into. but I may be wrong!...... terry

check out the cute Steyr-puch Haflinger or its bigger brother the Pinzgauer both have incredible off road capability. Pinzgauer is still in use with the MoD but quite recently some really nice condition late turbo diesels were auctioned off by withams at reasonable prices

big guns at st margarets, kent
terryb replied to terryb's topic in Archaeology - WW1 to the end of the cold war
thank you-I never knew they used small tugs and trolleys! but it does make sense. National Trust now owns large areas at st margarets and its good to see gunsites Jane and Clem now being excavated and restored -
ok, no one else has rumbled this-lets see.....analy retentive council planning officers? three tubs of vaseline ? anyone know of a suitable ending........

big guns at st margarets, kent
terryb posted a topic in Archaeology - WW1 to the end of the cold war
There were quite a few very large calibre gun installations at the st margarets, and bearing in mind the hilly terrain, how did they get such large calibre ammunition to the batteries, and how was it moved from the magazines to the guns? The gun sites are open to the public, but its a puzzle as to how they shifted 15" shells around? -
nice 432 just now advertised on milweb-asking 16500. Be quick if you're serious otherwise it will be gone (probably for a conversion).........

a lot of maybes, plenty of scaremongering, and a whole load of new additional fees just waiting in the wings. lets just hope we impose those same new tarifs on traffic entering.

Does anyone know what it sold for?
-
its so compact-slip on a bell housing, clutch and gearbox, that would make one awesome custom!
-
Brilliant-look forward to it-thanks ploughman.

wow! $122500 profit! and I thought my estate agent was being greedy!
-
wow they had some really good toys then-how on earth was it all done without modern electronics-especially the planes!

both have their pros and cons, personally I love CVRT's to drive but track supply is extremely difficult. Famously a cvrt was demonstrated doing a full throttle neutral turn at Bovington. It started turning with brand new track fitted. 24 minutes later the track pads were worn down to the steel ribs! brand new production 432 track pads are readily available to joe public at around a tenner each, held in by one nut and easily and quickly changed. although cvrt's can fetch north of £28000, a good 432 can still be found for under £20k

It may not be the AVR, as all they do is sense output voltage and vary excitation voltage to suit. Most AVRs are totally sealed against moisture and have a protection fuse. Could be the windings at fault. There is a simple quick test that will show if your AVR is duff and demonstrate what the alternator is capable of producing get a competent person to do this first so you know where the fault lies

does anyone know why they were taken out of service? I have seen two in a scrapyard in remarkably complete condition
-
first of the Warthogs is now being offered by Brightwells-be interesting to see what it sells for!
-
highly unlikely to get out of the country without paying some 'fees' at the border!
-
out walking this afternoon and found this in the woods. there is more in the denser undergrowth, maybe another vehicle?
-
pretty much everything then towers I think refers to turrets
-
service personnell and equipment is closely controlled and monitored and so much less likely to go awray, there is no control over privately owned vehicles, who as a tiny minority as easy targets. Either way, you can't predict or legislate against someone going nuts

remember the german pensioner with a running and driving WWII Panther IV (oh that by the way is probably worth millions) well, now they can legally confiscate that, and anything else worth having. strange how on one hand they are doing this, but sold off german army Leopards, Marders, and Gepards at knock down prices to anyone????????
