    Nope - these guys have been mentioned more than once: www.pastparts.co.uk at Bury St.Edmunds, Suffolk. Not as costly as you might imagine. P.S. We've had you banned from the Clubhouse until this picture of the lurcher appears :coffee:

    About the same as the new SMART diesel car then :coffee: Oh sorry, you weren't talking about fuel were you....:-D

    How amazing - it looks such a calm and peaceful scene, as if nothing has been disturbed or damaged. Thanks for the info.

    Isn't it back to the point that straight oils are intended to dump out bits and stuff in the sump, and a only a proportion of the oil flow be filtered (bypass filtration) in the older engines, whilst multigrades are designed to carry all particles in suspension so that they can be separated in a full-flow filter as in modern engines? (That's what the very helpful man at Morris's told me)

    We just have to have a picture of your Greyhound Steve! Hall Scott = Dragon Wagon / Pacific tank transporter tractor for starters, but bound to be a larger engine than the bus??
  7. N.O.S.
    What materials have you used for the fuselage and wing cores and surface, Steve? Must be something pretty light but tough!

    So I'm guessing the smaller panel instruments must be about 1/2" dia.? A fair bit of work just detailing these - are the dial face photos of the real thing?

    Wonderful footage there Well done! The good state of preservation of the bikes is surprising, the Matador cabs more so, but what on earth has happened to the locomotive boiler? Surely the Stanier Preservation Group hasn't been down and half-inched it? :confused: Perhaps the scrapmen dived on it for the copper firebox :cool2:

    I thought this was a familiar story - check out a thread by a certain Mr. Artistsrifles back in Jan 2008, this gives the links to the aviation art website which tells the story. I used the HMVF Search facility, but "ye old pub" words are too short, so try "charlie brown"

    So was it the Kiwis who pioneered the fad of "super singles" on truck front axles then? (note the use of larger -14x20 - tyres on the front axle).

    If this is a long-winded way of you getting around to showing us a photo of the fourth one lurking in the back of your shed, Tom, please just get on with it :cool2:

    I'm struggling to find my way around the French auctioneer's website - does anyone know the results from this auction?
  18. N.O.S.
    I see the U.S. one is available in 1/2 sizes too, ideal where space is limited......
  19. N.O.S.
    Just found 3 copies - £250, £387, £414 :shocked: :sweat:Now where's the nearest library? :coffee:
  20. N.O.S.
    Aha - just visited their website and discovered they supply continuous hinge strip in various sizes, I'm going to be needing lots of that and was struggling to find a source.
  21. N.O.S.
    Not sure to be honest, how about we wait to see if it has a happy ending?
