  1. Thanks Bob, The reason I asked about the name is that all the names and numbers are from either photographs, War Diaries and personal accounts, we have tried to be careful not to use museum / restored vehicle names and numbers unless they are backed up by a photograph or documents. As you said you once owned it I was unsure about the history of the name. Cheers Kevin
  2. Hi Bob, Was that an "official" name do you know? Cheers Kevin
  3. Hi B Series, Thank you for those. I am sure that I have seen a census number to VRN listing somewhere. I wonder too whether the LONDON BRIDGE bridgelayer is the same WW 2 AVRE. Cheers Kevin
  4. Hi Bob, Is this the one? Cheers Kevin
  5. High Bob, Thank you for pointing these out. I have added HIGHBURY and FIREFLY to the list which will be on V6 and credited to you. I have not added it to the list but I assume that lurking somewhere is a photo of a Matilda II and possibly a Sherman named HIGHBURY from 8RTR? Cheers Kevin
  6. Thanks Bob, at least we know the Mk and which listing it belongs to. Cheers Kevin
  7. Hi Bob, Thank you for checking that so we don't know if this is a post war Churchill. I will for ward to Dick Taylor to see where he thinks we should put this name. Cheers Kevin
  8. Hi, I am following your posts with interest as I am currently building a 1/35th model of the MWC by Gecko Models. Could I ask if you could post some more pictures of the engine, if you have any, as this would be a help to add additional details to the engine. Cheers Kevin
  9. Hi Bob, Thank you for that. This is exactly the sort of detail we are looking for. Do you know when the Churchill was recovered? I don't suppose the census number or any other markings such as div signs were on the AVRE? Normally we would ignore names and census numbers on museum restored vehicle as there a lot of spurious name / census number matches out there but as this is a recovered tank the name is obviously genuine. I will drop Dick a line and let him know. Thanks again and sorry for all the questions. Cheers Kevin
  10. ARMENTIERS changed for V6 DETERRANT was as spelt D DAY DODGERS ( D-DAY DODGERS ), probably 2 different vehicles with the latter probably III ( crew error ). Cheers Kevin

  13. Thanks for your kind words. It was 67Burwood's build that inspired me to do it. Cheers Kevin
  14. Thanks for your kind words. It was your build that inspired me to complete the kit, I think the only thing that is missing is a couple of round mirrors.
  15. Attached is a pdf file of names used by British, Canadian, Czech, Dutch, Polish and South African forces. basically a name used on any vehicle drawn from British / Commonwealth stocks. If can add anything or see any errors please let me know. Cheers Kevin WW2 Vehicle Names V5.pdf

  19. Hi Richard and B Series, The Resicast update set provides all of these with the exception of any hand tools or welding equipment although I do have additional sets covering these items. The only piece only machinery with a name on it is the bench drill by AJAX. The instructions include a small diagram of the layout, I have managed to find a larger clearer image, attached. Richard any additional pictures will be a great help, thank you. All I need know is to know how the machinery was cabled up. Thanks for your help. Cheers Kevin
  20. I am looking for information of the type and layout of machinery used on the WOT 6. I am working on ICM's 1/35th scale model with the Resicast X type Machinery update set. Having searched the internet for photos showing machinery, layout and wiring I am at a loss as there are very few on-line photos or data pages that are of any use. Attached is my attempt to correct the Resicast GS body for the WOT 6. Any help or suggestions are much appreciated.
  21. I am working on the Mirror Models 1/35th scale model of the Diamond T 969A hard cab Wrecker. I am looking for WWII photos and valid census numbers of the wreckers used in British / Canadian service. I am struggling to find either. Any help would be much appreciated. cheers Kevin
  22. I am doing a parallel build of AFV Club 1/35th scale A.E.C. Dorchester LP and HP. Can anyone help me with any photos or know of any restored vehicles. I do have the drawings pack from The Tank Museum which will be a great help. Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions. Cheers Kevin
  23. Any photos of restored Mk III's out there. I believe the hulls are welded and the engine covers are different too. cheers kevin
  24. Great. Thanks Adrian. I just to add some wiring detail around the engine so any additional info is most welcome. cheers Kevin
