    I can remember years ago when that radar trailer was still complete..ish in a poor state then, and well vandellised,. it was then burnt out in a large fire, which burnt the tyres and reduced the body to the pile of twisted rusty scrap it is now ...below is a link to a complete rusty but Original identical radar trailer that has been saved and still had most of its radar equipment intact too so made it a feaseable proposition to restore http://www.anti-aircraft.co.uk/restoration_No3Mk2radar.html

    Birmingham LEZ, due to commence in June Exempts Historic 40 year old vehicles, .more recent vehicles will have to pay the charge,...think this will be the case in most other LEZ's ..same as in the London ULEZ https://www.brumbreathes.co.uk/info/5/exemptions-additional-support/21/apply-exemption/8

    Alas looks like you have another CJ Propshaft, their rear props are shorter than an MB/GPW owing to the larger diff housing,.. look in the link below for prop lengths https://forums.g503.com/viewtopic.php?t=154947

    that would be a Civilian RB as used by Utility companies, and as Fire engines, its Not Military, is it a V6 Ford engine ? what year is it? to be Historic Exempt 40year old it has to be pre 1980. otherwise It will Not be ULEZ compliant, must be Euro 4 petrol, or pay £12.50 a day. but it can still be used ok outside of the ULEZ, which expands out to the North & South circular roads in October this year

    a Military RB 44 with the original Perkins Phaser engine Cannot enter London ! .. the requirment for the recent Inner London ULEZ is Euro 6 diesel...the old 1990's Perkins engine is Not even LEZ compliant ! the minimum for LEZ is Euro 3 diesel made from 2001 on, so it Cannot enter the Outer London LEZ, that area covers virtually everywhere inside the M25. An RB is not older enough to be exempt Historic.

    A few years back IWM Duxford announced plans to Demolish the Land Warfare hall, which in recent years had been closed to visitors, and replace it with more aircraft exhibit hangers and reduce the vehicle exhibits IWM last year were granted planning permission to build a 160 room Hilton hotel on their site, beside the Airspace building
