  1. Depends what their licence says. The musuem itself may qualify as secure storage. Also are they on a civvy licence? There are also showmans licences.
  2. He can consider himself lucky. My son was nearly born ina Land Rover. Great news!! Now you have ab excuse to buy all the toys you..er..HE wants.
  3. Found on a sight near RAF Biscter. The site was used to dismatle equipment immdiatley post war. So what else is there?
  4. Well you've gto to sleep somewhere at shows! There are a number of troop carriers, with a box built under the tilt. Very comfortable, and get round all sorts of problems.
  5. Batteries don't go flat on Pathfinder, and it's...almost... Jack proof.
  6. You proably made somones day then! :-D Most excitment they'd had in years. The good side is you've marked your card with local Police as a sensible person.
  7. Welcome in, please post pictures. Military archeticture pre WW2 is a area we haven't started on yet! Most amiss! I'll start posting pictures Martello towers.
  8. Section 5 of the Firearms Act is the , anything we don't like or don't want section. You can get a Section 5 licence. But you have to convince the Secratary of State at the Home Office you need one. It also covers such things as Pepper Spray and Blowguns. My Vet has limited section five licence. He uses a blow gun to anthtise animals. The drug in the dart is a 'noxious liquid' - read '99% fatal if it gets on human skin, 100% if it gets under the skin- so that comes under Section 5
  9. They are FAC section One. Depends as said where you live what the attitude is. the main concern that I've come across is the firing pin. That must be removed and kept in a lock box.
  10. Try your local agricultural or truck merchants, there used on artic and farm trailers.
  11. If you can find it 'Braver Men Walk Away' by Peter Gurney, ATO, and then Cheif Explosive Officer for Met Police at the height of the IRA campaings.
  12. Problem is the dropper circuit requires power in its own right. Then the out put goes right down. I've got the circutry to do it but you need the cell running at top efficency. There are cells available that will do the job but they are very expensive, in the £100+ range. A decent enough trickle solar charger in 12 volt, the cheapest I've seen, again Maplin special offer was £9.99, it works well enough though. I'd reccomend one for any vehicle.
  13. All siting down? Degsey is totally correct! The clubs have a place, but the forum allows almost instant communication and a very real world of knowledge. How many times have we all posted in a panic and got answers almost immedatiley?
  14. True, pity I can't find a six volt solar charger though. They are very useful kit. On that Maplin's are doing a 4 watt solar panel for 325. that is powerful enough to bring a battery up from flat.
  15. Not nessacarily, my 101 was 9 foot 6 inch to the top of the beacon, find an understanding test place with a high door.Depending on body type, a Campeing vehicle might be the way to go.There are MOT class regulations that may help you avoid haveing to have a HGV plate.
  16. You can buy trailer slides that fit plates, but that would be one set or the other.
  17. Neil mate if you ever work them out. Let the rest of us know. Eastblock, go and have a chat with the local HGV garage, they deal with regulations all day. The agricultural loophole has been squezzed latley. Officially it always has tied you up, distance you can travel etc. But a lot of blind eyes were turned.
  18. Heavy duty velcro. Used it on the 101 for the last eight years. That was hiolding the civvy plates over the military, and no they never fell off.
  19. blame the Chinese! They are buying up scarp and batteries for their ** Electric bicycles! I've just bought two small 45ah hours for £149 delivered. They take the size of one large 6 volt battery. There is a reason for this! When I leave the vehicle I can series the two cells and put a 12 volt trickle solar charger on them.
  20. As most Pathfinder contributors are HMVF members . Lets get both working! Finally the MV world has a forum not run by committe! Mark comes a cross a s such a softie! :hug: Try getting a coma in the wrong place on an articale! :beatenup:
