The answer as usual is something is worth what someone will pay. If dealears won't sell, they go out of buissness. If you find a Muppet that will pay silly money, great. The trouble is what we view as important antiques or worthy of restoration, conservation, others see as junk. Would you leave the Mona Lisa out in feild to rot? :shake:

Thanks for that. While your over there, I'm trying to get a copy of Robinson Headley. -
Yeah its a weird layout, Still the beauty of this forum is we can all double check the obvious. The blackout curtains appear to be inside the end flaps. Trouble is I don't think any of us have all the actual parts to put one up! :argh:

Still a very common find on the Great War battlefeilds. There was also, excuse spelling, Machanocie, a tinned mutton vegtable stew and corned mutton. The big tins a square.

Scafold poles and plastic sheeting or second hand ply wood?

The posted drawing has the pole lengths and number of each required on it. I've compared my full my set to the drawing and it is the complete inventory. There are the odd poles that have a clip to attach to the side of the vehicle. Do you want pictures of those. I don't have the starining wires, but wonder if these are completly nesacary,

A lot of the tyres for that beast ended up on Monster trucks. Supposedly the most expensive tyres ever made. The latest idea along these lines are self guiding trucks. There is an annual event for teams, there was a TV proggramme on it. The trucks were expected to cover a twenty odd mile course over rough conditions, and some did!

Its the type of fiting, the number of each type and the angle that I need. From that I should be able to cobble something up.
-
I know!! definitley got your name on. :-D What it does need is a set of the spiders or at least a pattern to copy off. The angles are diffrent from a nine by nine. a decent drawing would help. (Hint BIG HINT)

OK font of all knowledge. Yes for the manufacturing at the time a remarkable achivment. Considering in the forties they were turning out Dodges about one every three minutes, how long did a Liberty take? I've also read that it was as a result of the Liberty's design by comitte that when re-armermaent camethe idea was approved to issue a basic requirment to the US motor industry and let them get on with it.
