  1. I don't get mad,a lot of armour is over in Europe and deserves to be where they fought at...You people over there went thru hell during the war and I can only hope the new generations post WW2 will appreciate what you all went thru...We all have a common bond of keeping history alive thru our hobby... I know all the people I ever talked to said once they fought in WW2 and came home they never really wanted to see that stuff again.....I wonder how many are still here in someone's buildings...Over here they are constantly finding so called barn finds of 60 year old plus cars that were simply put away... I say keep up the hobby and educate people how important it is...Vote those idiot politicians out of office... Popular Mechanics is a great read but never heard about the tanks..
  2. Ok,,I always thought Super Mods had a Sherman or main battle tank..At least one..
  3. Click on REPLY TO THREAD then scroll down a little and click on MANAGE ATTACHMENTS then in upper right corner click on ADD FILES then in upper corner click on SELECT FILES...Then just take your time and select a photo or two (it will take about 1 minute for each photo to upload) and a few more steps that you'll be able to figure out....Write all this down then it's easier to remember...
  4. It sure is a beauty..I'll never be in that money bracket...I do really love my 1954 Ferret MK1... Here in the USA the Shermans cost approximately $300,000.00 US dollars...
  5. I live in the USA and we have similar problems at times with government...I think just the opposite that it's about time people learn and be more understanding and respectful about people in general...The tank is a reminder of the many wars that we have all been thru in an attempt to preserve our individual rights...The owner of the tank was respectful in the way he was protesting... People all over have had enough of stupid politicians.... I wish the people the very best in a fair outcome to them...
  6. Scout Car,Liaison,Ferret MK1 and MK1/1...Referred to as Illustrated Parts Catalog..Page F4 has the Bevel Box and Propellor Shaft exploded parts view...
  7. Joe,I am looking in my parts catalogue at the bevel box and cannot with certainty give you the right part number without seeing the part...Perhaps you can post up a picture of it and another member here can help.... Also since you are a Ferret owner you absolutely will need the 4 manuals for it...The only place in the USA that I know of that sells the manuals is www.khakicorpsimports.com ...Call him and order them...It usually takes a few days to get an answer as he is a small company and greatly overworked... Wish I could help more but I am very limited in my mechanical ability.... The very best to you... Joe in Illinois
  8. From all the way over in the USA a BIG WOW !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you for posting it...
  9. Welcome from the USA...People from all over the world are on here...Normandy is one of the most important areas in history..I hope all is well over there for you... Joe in Illinois USA
  10. Duffy, I wonder where my 1954 Canadian Army Ferret MK1 54-82586 is in that picture..UNEF 1216...Still looking for any information about mine..I sure would like to honor any crewman...
  11. You sure have been working...Hope someone on here can help you with the timing issue...
  12. I feel the same way Tim about my Ferret...I have been looking about 14 months now for the past crew or any history of pictures of my 1954 Canadian Army Ferret MK1...54-82586...I would like to honor anyone that served with it...Once I find the history i will paint it in the colors of it in the 50's...I hope some day to show it at car shows here in the USA and have an information board by it so all may see about it's history...
  13. Outstanding Tim...Thank you once again for sharing the amazing videos....Is your life settling down a bit now ?
  14. Very interesting...Thank you for sharing the pictures...
  15. Gear box same as engine oil 30 wt detergent...Transfer case EP90-GL4 not GL5 additive as it can cause harm to the bronze inside...
  16. Tim, Thank you for sharing your pictures with us...Most importantly I am glad you made it back from satans land...
  17. Great video thanks for sharing....Hope you have a lot of land nearby that you can take it out for a great ride...Your neighbor looked really interested maybe he'll get one !
  18. I am wondering if a good soaking in a bucket filled with penetrating oil for a week would loosed up that rust.... I hope the more knowledgeable mechanics will come on with ideas for this problem...
  19. There is a 106mm recoilless rifle for sale at www.armyjeeps.net it has been for sale for quite awhile...
  20. I can't imagine the G Force to drivers neck !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
