Welcome, what a job you've got! Only an MV enthusiast would choose to collect over snow vehicles in Australia! You'll fit right in. As for Weasel being US, do bear in mind (which may be reinforced by a big stick) the inventor/designer was Geffory Pyke, English, in fact the archetypel English Ecentric (otherwise known by many at the time as 'a blithering lunatic) The Weaseal was for some bizzare reason security classified at the same level as the Atomic Bomb. The original conception was an air portable vehicle to carry troops to attack the German Heavy Water plant at Ryjukan.

I can see the argument for AFS and Police Coloum. Maybe the name should be changed to the Historic Military/ Goverment special use vehicle and any vaguley military subject of intrest of the world Forum? I do think there should be a gallery for the model makers on the forum to show thier superb work. Mind you The jeasousy their skill arouses in me. :argh:

The tester I have is a Harrington box that came from somewhere, built in load test. Not that it seems to worry the Onan. At least I know they are working, great bits of kit, It will proably spend most of its time at Frinmere so will be put to hard use.

I have finally got the generators back from Stone's place last week and have spent the afternoon playing. Both are as advertised fully operational. :yay::yay::yay: I put my Generator tester on them, both are giving out 280 to 300 volts, I presume this RMS. Does anyone know how to regulate the vopltae? Is it on the engine govenor or internal. For fun tried a load of a 1 kw heavy grinder, neither even stuttered when the grinder was started.

Tony B replied to Gary Murphy's topic in American Vehicles
Seeing as the vehicle came in in the 1960's, and was owned by someone else, I'd doubt there would be a problem over inmport duty. You have proof how you came by it? If inherited get a letter from the executor of the will.
