  1. Great work! What type of searchlight is in the picture? David.
  2. It has green paint under the red if that helps?
  3. Hi all, Just wondering what this instrument panel would be from, it is american from looking at the gauges. Thanks, David
  4. Hi all, I have just started making an actuating shaft for a 2 pdr. (the shaft for actuating the breechblock as seen in the picture). Since I am making one, I might as well make a batch if there are more required to help reduce costs. Please let me know if you are interested. Cheers, David
  5. Hi Folks, I am after a Simms SRM4 Magneto for a Meadows 4 cylinder engine. I require a couple but I only require one for now. If anyone has one that they are willing to part with, please let me know David.
  6. Hi all, I am searching for a chassis mounted PTO driven generator to mount to a Guy FBAX searchlight chassis. The generator information I have obtained so far is that it is: -24kW (I do not know what voltage, current, or RPM) -That it is the same generator that the Leyland Retriever used (and I would assume any other searchlight/machinery chassis of the same basic design). Below is an image I obtained which shows the generator mounted to a Guy FBAX chassis. The searchlight is a 90cm searchlight which rolls on small tracks like this: So if anyone has any information about what type of generator it is with specs and where any are, it would be of great help to me for my restoration. And same with the 90cm searchlight (which isn't as much of a priority atm, but will be later on) Also, if there are any spare parts or books that anyone may have about Guy FBAX's, I would be interested to know as any sort of information about these trucks are scarce. Here are some Guy FBAX pictures for reference: Cheers, David Burr
  7. Thankyou for the new picture DesertBlooms88.
  8. Guy FBAX truck, as I have found it hard to find information on them, and I only know of 7 that are all non restored and are in New Zealand. David
  9. I would also like to find a copy of a Guy FBAX and Leyland Retriever Manual David.
  10. I went to the last Easter Rally with the NZMVCC at taranaki with the skippy, I am only just starting to get involved again, as my dad was involved heavily when I was younger, but has now got other commitments. Are you a member of the NZMVCC? Here are some photos of the Leyland I took today. David
  11. This looks like a good project, it looks to be in slightly better condition than my dads one! (which apparently it is a 1938 one that is ex military that was in New Zealand before WW2). David.
