  1. 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

  2. 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

  3. 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

  4. 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 ?

  5. 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 !

  6. Well she finally arrived safely today. I do need a lesson in adding pics on this forum. Its nice to finally own a White Halftrack & a White scout car :-)

    I am really pleased for you.

    some people only dream of such things, whilst others go for it in life.:saluting:

  7. No it was just a quick fix that the owner came up with prior to the show, it looks well though and I'm sure similar things were done in wartime. Thanks to everyone who took pictures of our little enclave with the ambulance and halftrack, if its ok can I borrow them as my camera has had a problem and none of my pics have come out?

    I am happy if you wanna use any of mine, but I'm no David bailey
