    It was all good fun then...my Range rover based racer was one previous owner, chassis number 335 long since scrapped, would have been a collectors item now
  5. Nick Johns
    But the average Landrover enthusiast would think an Explorer was something made by Ford !

    I was there too yesterday, the Cinema unit will be in the same location as last year in the living history field ..Bigger tent, bigger screen, more seats, this year, look out for us. Spoke to Barbara about the future at Beltring and she dispelled any rumours of it being the last show, apparently the new site owners want the show to continue

    Dodge 1/2 ton WC9 ambulance, very rare, my brother restored a complete wreck some 35 years ago, wonder if its the same one?

    It wasn't only British army to fit rifle clips, the screen is frame from an earlier Jeep without the gun rack brackets, it had been fitted with some crudely made tin clips fitted post war whilst in service with the Greek army, ...now been consigned to the scrap bin !

    They do tend to seize in the block if not moved for a while, I remember one of my first Jeeps many years ago the dizzy was seized so never had the clamp bolt in place, one day driving along the engine started running rough lost power and died on a hill...lo the distributor had freed itself and spun around twisting the plug leads up !
  21. Nick Johns
    If I had bigger storage facilities I'd certainly have some bigger toys, but Jeeps are the easiest to work on and the most practical...plus the best investment
  22. Nick Johns
    And think youll find all visiting military vehicles have to be pre registered with the local authorities where you are staying
