I thought that I might make a small update on the Humber, the chassis is almost finish. the hull has been blasted and painted. It runs and drives nicely. we hope to be finish by july.

Oh that is in a nice condition, where all the finish like that? Was it a big job restoring the WOT6, I saw it last year and the cab look pretty bad? cheers

Is it the Fordson to the right? of the trailer.... and more pictures of the charioteer please :blush:

I know its models but they are really nicely made

The lorry with the roundel looks a lot like a Bedford Ql

Yep you would have had some competion......... :cool2: very nice could you by any chance make a scan of it ?

I might have spent a hour or two skipping through all of them

I think it is a M31 grant ARV

I think these are of polish and british forces in Italy. http://www.cultura.marche.it/cultura/mostraguerra/default_sik.asp?page=1&order=id%3F there is a round 7000 picture. including a lot of M10s, FWD HAR, CMPs and Sherman Tanks

It looks like it is copy form the Fairbairn Sykes fighting knife of WW2 http://www.jcmilitaria.com/details.asp?ID=5221

Here is the coming Explorer model

They are really good. I have a couple my self and have seen many build. they are much better than plastic models, but more difficult to build.

I would recon that it was an engine test, I just found the pictures on the net, I think it is from Isle of wight military museum this site might be of interest www.churchilltank.com there is also some pictures here http://www.asphm.com/moteurs/moteur_churchill_mk_v_II_crocodile/moteur_churchill_mk_v_II_crocodile.html

This schould be an engine

Finding one of the two Danish used, Scammell TRMU 30 with trailer.

Hi I will take the measurements next time I se my Amazon. My one has the wire raising of the crane but it is temporarely removed due to the hight problems I think there where different types of coles cranes, but from what I know all was made at coles .

Hi I have an amazon, but its a long wheel base, so the crane might be longer. What do you need measurements of ? But http://www.yorkshireairmuseum.co.uk/ has a short wheel base version on display which might be closer to you.

Some, if not all, Amazons had a stowage frame on top of the cab.. I think that it is correct that many Amazons had a stowage frame, but my one has a roof hatch which look original and no signs of a frame, and all The danish ones I have seen pictures of did not have a frame.

Sorry but no, the airfix model it is a short wheel base amazon. The long wheel base amazon has a small flat bed between the cab and crane.
