    I can't remember where I read it, but I'm sure I've seen somewhere that leaded fuel was brought in later in the war specifically for tank engines, and most vehicles would run unleaded.

    I've escorted a modelmaker around a vehicle at Duxford before. I even held the tape measure

    The one at the front is an early CMP. The one at the back has a Guy Ant look about it but looks a longer wheelbase than I'd have expected for one. It may be a late CMP but it doesn't look quite right to me.

    No, there was a mix. The jerry can is a better design but it wasn't universally introduced, so both types of can were in use.

    It looks like "Ernie" on the mudflap to me. Maybe the name of the jeep?

    I hope you're referring to the tank and not the other half
  7. Lauren Child
    Thanks all! It is indeed Cromwell and a my little pony on the other side

    Here's a better pic of the tank.

    Chrissy and I got married on the 23rd! To mark the occasion we had a special cake topper made, and I thought it was worth posting here

    Welcome along - good luck with your purchase

    Don't go mad now, you need to pace yourself lest the multitude of possibility overcome you. Welcome in

    Are there any numbers on it?
  13. Lauren Child
    Wow that's an interesting beastie.

    Just stumbled on this wikipedia article on the Schofield tank. The photo shows the same type of suspension (I think) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schofield_tank

    Nice video. What's the first tank - I don't recognise it?

    It looks like you can see a little bit of lump at the base of the barrel. If so that probably rules out the straight M10. The barrel doesn't look too tapered at the base, so my money's on Achilles. That would tie in with the name as well. Welcome along by the way
  17. Lauren Child
    Could be M10 Wolverine, Achilles, or M36 Jackson.
  18. Lauren Child
    Ah that might be it, yup.

    The smaller one seems quite hard to come by. I'm guessing that the change to the middle one was to be the same thickness as a jerry can for stacking but I've not had one to compare. IIRC the one on the left is the right size to fit two in place of a POW can in vehicle racks.

    Awesome!

    This might be worth a try - it sounds like they can make them by number http://www.triple-c.com/Original_Wilmot_Breedon_Keys.cfm

    Nice one - good luck!
  23. Lauren Child
    That's not to say that it's not worth trying mind you, just balance it with a realistic appraisal of chances - I do hope you get somewhere.

    I'm sorry to say that I wouldn't hold out much hope. I had a similar query with regard to a program on a different channel and didn't get very far. I suspect TV companies get a lot of queries.

    Nice truck For those that couldn't see this is the first URL that was pasted in http://s914.photobucket.com/user/Clint328/media/Fordson%20Thames%20ET6/20140704_143419_zps83601ff0.jpg.html
