Oh that means its on its way here then. Luckily I live across the road to where we work but I am secretly looking forward to pulling the locals out of the ditch with my winch:D

The best prediction at the moment seems to be 'Look out the window'.

Yes sir, I agree with that!

Welcome to the forum, good luck for when you get plodder .. you'll love it !

I have given up with the met office forecasts. I use the weather channel app. It seems more accurate. However both are forecasting snow here this weekend. :saluting:

Love your truck, looking forward to seeing more pictures

Welcome from Essex. Diamond T... One of my favourites !

and what about Alf Garnett !

Well lads, I have heard they are making another dads army. With a WOMAN playing the role of Captain Mannering .

Now we know the country is In state with lots of issues, but this would be pushing the populous of our shores too far.

i for one, would don my tin hat, Zulu spear , and sandwiches and march on Westminster. ( if it wasn't raining of course ).

But I wonder... Does it mean they can't say "they don't like it up 'em" anymore ?

How's this ?

Welcome to the forum, from Essex England

and the licence for the VHF !

There's one on eBay right now

A proper picture of proper people.

The T on the fin may be group markings similar to what you see on the B-17s B24-s etc ?

Personally I would not try, but good luck if you do . Don't forget it's not a case of point and go, you need to plot the course with the wind and tide taken into consideration. But I guess if your attempting this you know these things already.

Good luck anyway !

MV Enthusiasts are generally very friendly, go and buy a veteran car and see what they are like, rattlesnakes are friendly in comparison....

Yes I know , I have two. Different kettle of fish

Hello from Essex

Hello and welcome from Essex

Great to have you aboard

I am a newbie having got my first military vehicle a few weeks ago. ( gmc 353 dump ). I have sort of rushed into a bit.!

however I found a Jimmy I was interested in and went to view. The seller wasn't in when I arrived to view it, as I was a bit earlier than the agreed time. I could see the truck parked in the drive but thought it proper to wait till the guy got home so waited in the car. Next thing I know was this lady came out with tea and biscuits while we waited. Very nice thank you !

anyway, the guy turns up and what a great guy he was. Very honest in his description and gave us loads of info. Hence we drove home with our new Jimmy, in the snow.

Next I decided to buy a gun ring. So I saw one advertised and duly went off to buy it.well, what a lovely bloke he turned out to be also. Gave us lots of time and Showed us all over his vehicles gave us lots of tips and advice also. I think we will end up as mates.

i also phoned Rex Ward and polity asked for some spare parts " bugger off" says he. Turns out however he was very helpful and me bits turned up next day. All very good.

next it was stencils from Axholme. Very nice chap there, was very interested in doing the job exactly right for my vehicle.

so all in all, my first impressions with military vehicle enthusiasts was excellent and I look forward to meeting lots of you at various shows this year.

cheers !

Water cannons ?...

Ah !! Is it for pushing landing craft / ships back off the beach ?...

if it isn't then it should be !!

Personally I would keep it as is. It's original history

I think andy has got it !

its all clear now, the adjustable arms are for regulating the tension on the elastic which fires the projectile.
