  1. How about a forum where we can post our pictures that have been. "Aged". He's mine if you want to start it of....
  2. Thank you, it seems too much for me to be able to do outside my house. I would never get the turret off without some sort of hoist. I think it will have to be an auxillery tank inside one of the flotation boxes ! is that right, the pedal lays flat on the floor until you put it into forward or reverse ? sorry to be. Dumb, but I know nothing about ferrets other than what's in the manual
  3. Ok , I got this old mk4 running on the button now, but having to use an external fuel tank as the proper one is completely filthy and blocked. Just checked the fluids in the gearbox, transfer box and fluid drive thingy and they are all full of beautifully clean oil. The Trouble is that the gear change pedal is laying flat on the floor and there's no sign of pressure like a normal pedal. it just doesn't do anything. It's Ll connected up ok and the shaft where it goes into the gearbox operates. is this wrong and something's broke, or am I doing something wrong ? also , how do I get the fuel tank out ? thanks
  4. Look at that lightning..... Defiantly one for the " best of British " club. I remember them at Coltishall, scrambling for the Ruskie bears that were snooping about
  5. ready to press the button already
  6. Its objecting to being painted quacky yellow.. GMCs have feelings too you know. :laugh:
  7. I would like to check the oil pressure on my ferret. Does anyone know the best place to connect up a mechanical oil pump.? could seem to find a suitable place in the manual
  8. A good spot indeed. too grainy as you say to do a proper I.d. But look at the trailing edges of the wings.. Famously elliptical !
  9. I agree with Jack, I once too hit a high speed in my truck, and it was really a new underpants experience. Especially after in developed a death wobble too. Then there's the question of stopping all that weight at a speed it wasnt designed for in an emergency (possibly in the wet )
  10. Can anyone remember this film It was about an American plane that crashed in the desert, and the crew were trying to survive. One by one they died and turned into ghosts. maybe it was based on the true story of the lady be good B24 i saw this film maybe 40 years ago but always wanted to see it again. any ideas ?

    A dakota

    That's a great picture
  12. A bit of water in the fuel ?
  13. Nice bumpers on that, BUT ! the Landy would be better as its ... cheaper to run more reliable less to maintain nobody would try to nick it every time you went out always look the same even as it got older. always take you home , rather than let you find your own way. in the garage and not in your face. thats just for starters..... but as a GMC owner , I will risk trying the driver !
  14. Hey ! I wonder if they will let me take my ferret across next year?
  15. I say ! Made me big ends rattle for a moment
  16. I am really pleased for you. some people only dream of such things, whilst others go for it in life.:saluting:
  17. Eberspatcher made into a portable unit. Very toastie
