  1. Tanks for the memories! Armoured vehicle is turned into a HEARSE so military enthusiasts can go out with a bang:- http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3279473/Tanks-memories-Armoured-vehicle-turned-HEARSE-military-enthusiasts-bang.html
  2. Steve, I can't remember but is the sump plug magnetic. As we all know, it is not a replacement for a filter but it is amazing the amount that the magnet catches.
  3. A Columbia Military Bicycle:- https://www.dominicwinter.co.uk/sale/-col18a/lot-529 A Columbia Military Bicycle:- https://www.dominicwinter.co.uk/sale/-col18a/lot-530 A Condor MO-05 Swiss Army Bicycle:- https://www.dominicwinter.co.uk/sale/-col18a/lot-531 10am Thursday 17th May Mallard House, Broadway Lane, South Cerney, Cirencester, GL7 5UQ
  4. If you search "Bedford RL parts book" you will find a number of them to choose from.
  5. From 2012 but worth reading as it covers DIY stitching:- http://farmingforum.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?3309-Metal-stitching
  6. Just found this on the Army Guide site (http://www.army-guide.com/eng/product967.html):- The Fox has now been phased out of service with the British Army with some of the turrets removed and fitted on to Alvis Scorpion CVR(T)s which have had their turrets removed. These vehicles are then known as the Sabre. AND A small number of Fox turrets were fitted on FV432 full tracked armoured personnel carriers. Perhaps Brightwells were confused because:- All of the welded aluminium turrets for the Fox light armoured car were manufactured by Alvis Vehicles.
  7. Army Equipment Support Publication - image and list of switches and dials:- https://www.ebay.com/itm/Bedford-TM-8-ton-4x4-Truck-Cargo-Platform-Winch-Operating-Information-/310813829703
  8. Can the speed limiter be re-calibrated to 55mph? If yes, would this affect the insurance as the DROPS is no longer to the original military specification?
  9. Both Jeeps have been imported from the Philippines:- https://www.brightwells.com/classic-motoring/leominster-classic-vintage/leominster-classic-vintage-16th-may-2018/leominster-classic-car-catalogue-16th-may-2018/ Brightwells, Leominster Classic & Vintage Cars and Motorcycles, 16th May 2018
  10. If you haven't seen this document already it is well worth reading:- https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/519226/DE_S_FOI2016_03001___Attachment-_Truck_Load_Handling_DROPS_15_Tonne_8x6_LHD_MMLC.pdf
  11. No idea of value but it is the oven from Cooker Outfit No.4 Mk 2 Trailer Mounted. Drawing of oven in Chapter 2 Page 26:- https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/624039/2017-05241.pdf
  12. Have you seen these in The Netherlands? https://www.simonsoldmotorcycleparts.com/filter/?_sft_category=diverse-onderdelen-motor&_sft_brand=smiths
  13. I doubt, that many members of the general public are going to know that it is copy unless you tell them and having the correct receiver, morse key and headphones will really add to the display.
  14. Just to add confusion, the cover is 20' x 15' here:- http://www.mapleleafup.net/forums/showthread.php?t=14783 Not an original photo (see post #67) but it may help:- https://forums.spacebattles.com/threads/pick-a-wwii-tank-and-drive-it-across-europe.585541/page-3

  16. This it is why it is a shame that some members have left/use the forum less since the format changed. Now I'm used to the new forum, if I was given the choice of bringing back the old one, I would say NO THANK YOU!!
  17. Luckily, we never had the Nuclear Holocaust, only the fear of one. So you surely can't have a museum named after an event that didn't happen.
  18. Sorry, no idea as I didn't go to the sale.
  19. Mercury Tug Tractor:- https://machinerysales.cheffins.co.uk/m/lot-details/index/catalog/291/lot/144861/?url=%2Fm%2Fview-auctions%2Fcatalog%2Fid%2F291%2F%3Fpage%3D5 Machinery Saleground, Sutton, Ely, Cambs, CB6 2Q 21/04/2018 10:00 AM BST
