  1. I will admit I have seen the ads for a while but wanted to see how sturdy they were in real life use ie some else getting one and giving it a good work out before I would be getting one .
  2. sounds sweet Mark , lets see how it holds up ? wont know about gifts until much later today as its only 7:06 am here just now
  3. found this clip of stills on you-tube fourth of four Something went wrong... verity of military and civilian
  4. and I thought that was one of santa's gifts dashaway dashaway all ?
  5. Mark you never heard of the United Kingdom Ward La France Owners Club magazine UKWLFOC !!
  6. colors for naval vessels and installations
  7. colors used for camouflage on British aircraft .
  8. I wasn't meaning to sound negative about Your work Tootall , I hope with all those new seals and Gaskets and things being tightened up correctly that there wouldn't be a chance for any leaks to be Honest ...its just that everyone says that MV's just seep or ooze or drip no matter what you do , that the only difference is they do those things faster when both the Vehicle and the air temps are high...... unless the things that are meant the have oil or fluids in them are empty . As for the handling I'd think that it will be much more stable and not as apt to wonder as it's traveling at speed , the rear bogie's should be much more flexable and hug the terrain better as well .
  9. That surely has been a huge amount of work , in a very short time! The WLF will have a completely different feel to it now!!how tattered were the old seals when you got down to them?So with all that renewed what do you figure for the oil consumption of the axles now ? a few drops a day compared to ounces ?
  10. was it attempt to "hide" the half track from aircraft? or just a post war junk yard photo? odd but I m sure I have never seen before
  11. so its establised as something military related in NI ?
  12. part of a mobile communications unit ?
  13. How " DO" they calculate the Value Added Tax ?
  14. thats the problem Jeeps couldn't have climbed it , the Dodge did ....but Then A CCKW wouldn't need to climb it , as with any other proper sized MV's would have simply run the tree over ! :-D :whistle: :angel:
  15. too small for a soldier to be in as... in a guard tower perhaps its a chimney for a portable water heating system of a vehicle perhaps?
  16. Sadly silly people will do silly things and others say "only by the grace of god go I "and refuse to punish those who drink and drive as severely as they should . We as humans pass laws and punishments for the use or abuse of fire arms but look the other way when it comes to Vehicles ......why should they be different . If you drive and are not in control and cause injury or death why is that less than shooting someone ? God bless those Souls who have the Jobs of dealing with the results, May this be the first Holiday they are not needed.
  17. something to do with the ventilation of army showers or latrines as I don't see a direct use for Humber Pigs just at the moment .
  18. Some kept is simple and clean others went for the combat collection of gear look both are fine ways to display .
  19. some very nice pieces of equipment every where you looked
  20. outstanding collection of photo's you have been finding thanks Radek
  21. can you give us a hint as to its size? could this be clue to its use?
