Amazing image by the way !

unusually it is an FV610 Armoured Command Post, a bit thin on the ground now.

Heres a pic of mine for comparison, (during a refurb) battery boxes removed from the sides.

The above diagram should help.

Thanks for posting.

Headset connector pin-out:

Probably best to connect speaker output to pins D and G, ground to E.

 

The sockets to fit a standard Clansman headphone plug do turn up on e-Bay. Or you could salvage them from an audio box e.g. item 111956680559

You won't need the Pressil box if not using the microphone.

I am trying to figure how to have an MP3 player running on "B Set" whilst the 353 is listening for traffic on "A set"

I think thats what i'm trying to explain ?

This supplier is in Wakefield, he has worked wonders for me, incorporating civvy bits into old casings etc.

He will be able to supply and generally help !

He deals in civvy and old school, however his mainstay is clansman.

Message him and let him know your needs.

I guess he will be buying a set of ANR headsets as well !

Welcome in Jim,

Get your Ferret over to Heywood in September, for yesteryear festival, we'll show you how to drive it on a spare 100 acres !

Regards Dale

NOW it is starting to make sense, thank you for the update.

Personally i had never heard of the FBHVC before, which is what prompted my scepticism.

I had better start filling the form in 18 times i guess, maybe not all tonight !

Hmmmm ?

Call me mister paranoid if you like !

is it ok if i include all my pin numbers and passwords to help with your survey ?

(Forgive ignorance, Trakmark ? )

The internal padding. It seems to be one of the first things to deteriorate.

i will let you know when I am passing and call in for a visit if that is ok with you.

i may be able to offer some help, not sure. But it would be nice to take a look.

Saracen looks great, thanks for putting the pics up. Trakmark inside looks complete which is rare.

Looks like it has some radio fittings, is it all working ?

Well done.

What kind of help are you looking for Gary.

How is the Saracen, do you have any photo's

Happy now Adrain ?

I would like to put my name forward, for membership of the

Ordnance Powered, Turret Beaching Club.

What level of Hard Hat should be donned ?

What does the Abbot Network Interface Box look like, any pics ?

I dont suppose anybody has any F.A.C.E. boxes from a FV 610 Saracen, or any details about them ?

when does it need moving ?

can you wait a few weeks ?

September is the closest i have yet John.

Dont suppose you have a spare drivers side final drive for a 434 ?

In any case, well done David, glad to see you still have endless patience !

Sorry Bob, but that would involve some forward thinking and realising the value of some of our assets, something the higher ups are not good at !

Just throw them away and buy something else when we need it !

Nice to hear from you Jim, welcome, from Dale at heywood tanks, not far from you !

have a look at our website and we will see you at yesteryear festival ?

There are two of us that need to get this done sometime this year.

For now, Happy new year to you and i will be in touch.

A nice thought Monty, well done.

Well done Datadawg, don't worry about the oil leaks, you'll get used to that !Track it back to where it is coming from, put some photos on here, maybe it is nothing to stress about and an easy fix.I am very glad i got mine, great fun !Very well done to Cold War Collection, very inspiring !A pic of mine. Just have to install wing mounted generator, periscopes and NOS battery boxes on rear wings (and a few other bits here and there)Hours of fun !

Peter,

Please contact Dave at the heywoodtanks Facebook page and he will post something on our website.

I'm glad you stayed up late Dougy,

thank you very much, just what i was looking for.

Is there ANYTHING you DONT have photo's of ?

in fact, forget i said that, it would start a whole new thread !

Some nostalgia for you in exchange Dougy !

Remember when you used to come up and play ?

Come back soon !
