    I have a friend who makes them for me, i dont know how much you were planning to pay, would you let me know. If he can do it for that money it 'WILL' be better. I didnt bother finding out the price for either company because i had seen both products before and didnt want either, I certainly didnt want a washer partly welded to the end of the tube off centre ! I will find better pics if you like, (and with less germans)

    Its the Heywood 1940;s day all the usual suspects will be there, and a drive around town, then back to the farm for camp overs etc

    I dont know, i'll take a look around. My concern is that it got a bit carried away last year, and it seems to be getting bigger for this year, i am already losing track of who is coming and what they are bringing. In total there is 100 acres, and we are going to be using a lot more of it for driving this year rather than just a big parade oval. we also have a couple of fly by's arranged, waiting to find out if the chinook is bringing his hummvee again ?

    With a Chieftain on the dyson, sounds like a plan

    I have tried reversing this trailer whilst attached to a 432, it would have been quicker to disassemble the thing and rebuild it in the next field blindfolded. i obviously do not have the necessaries !

    Many thanks for the welcome John, still figuring my way round, Yes the extravaganza is August but there is also the 40's weekend in Heywood June 28-29 another minor point, its not 17 acres, its 100 acres, and we will have no option but to be using it all in June and August, we are talking about a more challenging tank track that will involve water and a knife-edge to balance on, should be fun for more experienced drivers, newbies and 'wheeled people' can still use the big oval. The level of interest is already surprising !

    The Goddess is currently housed at Rochdale Fire Station Museum as we do not really do much with her, I have plenty of other jobs to do. One thing i am trying to do is find out what kind of hydraulic pump is attached to a chieftain Mk10 gen' engine,as i have one missing, i need this pump and the 'gen' working to operate powered turret traverse and elevation

    Hi, My name is Dale from Heywood, Lancashire. I am in the fortunate position of having access to multiple Tanks, APC's, SPG's and other military vehicles to drive and maintain in my spare time. I do this with a couple of friends, generally at weekends. Now and then we do a bit of fund raising, etc, and generally enjoy the vehicles. You can get a better idea at http://www.HeywoodTanks/Facebook We are always happy to receive 'Likes" and any comments or questions Regards Dale
