    That could be an interesting way of dealing with trespassers 'BANG!' "Now stay OFF of my land!" trevor

    Maybe your wife is simply prettier? I generally let my wife deal with such things, she just seems to have the knack of getting the desired result. trevor

    If where you live happens to be in Sussex, I can recommend this blog for all such things from that period: http://www.pillbox.org.uk/pillblogs/index.asp trevor

    OK, dumb questions of the day - what is a 'mag cut-off', and what is meant by 'volley sights'? :red: trevor
  5. GeePig
    I didn't realize that there would be such a great difference in size between the fronts and the rears! trevor

    It is always interesting to see when a collector steps beyond the pale - I wonder if they ever considered, say, the consequences of an electrical fire in their garages? :nut: trevor

    and what And pictures. Pictures are like caffeine to us. trevor

    Ah, that is how I like my engineering, clean and functional, none of that swirly-whirly twaddle trevor

    Sounds like a good idea and good use of manpower, and I look forward to the pictures! :-) trevor

    Hmm, sounds interesting Robert. Any chance of posting some pictures of the kind of things you would like photographed, so that people know what kind of things you need to see? trevor

    I find it interesting that the WD stamps are different, would this mean a different contract or even a different manufacturer? trevor
  12. GeePig
    My suggestion too would be the 1" drive, 66mm hex socket, tommy bar and the biggest hammer you can swing in there. What is it that you are actually working on, by the way? trevor
  13. GeePig
    I don't suppose it includes the vital contents of the rear axle, does it? trevor

    Have you seen this: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Send-a-Helmet/1464915183775829 trevor

    Ho ho, reminds me of the time I applied the brakes of my Honda 50 as I approached a bend, and a leaf stem caught in the cable at the front wheel end and prevented the brake from releasing. We bucked our way up onto the pavement before I could stop it.... trevor

    Ha ha, I only wish it was real... :-D trevor

    If that is 'Dayton' then that could be the wheel manufacturer. trevor

    Ah, I was getting a bit confused until this point! So, the chassis was shortened after removal of the original body, and a 5th-wheel clamped to the chassis rather than drilling the chassis to bolt one on, yes? Nice trailer! trevor

    Some kind of compressor, I thought, but it is hard to make out as someone has parked a Jeep on top of it :-D Trevor
  20. GeePig
    Well, that is interesting, so these could have been NOS running chasses that eventually were sold off and exported? trevor
  21. GeePig
    Oh good, I always enjoy a Morris, always reminds me of the works breakdown vehicle, when I was an apprentice all those years ago. trevor
  22. GeePig
    Was the truck new in 1954, or simply exported with the cab removed? trevor
  23. GeePig
    What kind of problem: grip, tyres flexing under cornering, rapid wear, loosening on the wheel, gravel adhesion, or something else? I admit I don't have a lot of experience, the last solid tyre vehicle I used was my first bicycle :-D trevor
  24. GeePig
    Ho ho, when I did my degree in auto engineering, sharing our building were those doing theirs in 'Transport Management and Planning' - now I know where they found employment trevor
  25. GeePig
    That is a great way of dealing with that common problem of disintegrating top tanks you have used, I would not have guessed what had been done if I were looking at the truck. trevor
