Cheers Adrian,

that was a very interesting and informative answer. I wondered why it didn't run at the weekend! It was looking pretty good outside, it seemed to have been primed with a red gloss? Bovingtons Comet didn't look too healthy inside.

Cheers,

Luke

I thought I recognised you there Jack! You walked past us on the grass embankment as the Matilda I was about, eating an ice cream! I did not see the GMC though!

Will you be catching up with the restorations from the IoW?

I will be there on the Sunday to see the Crusader mainly, hope to see some of you guys and your kit there:shocked:

I may also go up to Blandford Camp on the Saturday if I can snatch a lift.

Seen a few pictures of this in this book. Great aquistion hope to see it around!

Any news on future prices? I am hoping for less than a 1999 Peugeot 106 with 87k on the clock!!!!!

Cheers nice pictures after doloading the program there is no mention of it on the actual parade display but I suppose it was still a very important British used tank!

Does anyone know if this will be at Bovvy at the weekend?

I cannot believe tht Army would put all of those old Shermans and Comets etc. on the ranges! Could they not just sell them to ther countries e.g Finland (Comets) instead!

Thanks for clarifying that, I was also wondering how would you go about purchasing something like that from an MOD range?

Cheers Adrian, very informative I have seen it at several shows and have often wondered about its history, do you know if it will ever be fully restored?

Slightly off topic- I must praise you for the amazing restoration job on your Sherman, I have seen it in the flesh and in several magazines it looks fantastic :yay: I see you have a Cromwell as well how goes that?

Here are a few pictures that I took whilst at this local show. The first link will take you too my PictureTrail Page and you can view the rest from there.

Hi all,

I was wondering if there are any sites dedicated to the M3 Grant that has been rescued from an army range and has been seen at many shows. It is the same one that is in my avatar and is in several photo's all over the site. If anyone has any info on it I would be most grateful.

Cheers,

Luke

That Quad and limber was at the 2007 GDSF too!

No butI have seen a few Jeeps and a 101FC round here plus at the local shows alot of R J Shephards collection. His Israeli halftrack is quite nice:-D, but I have never seen the Boss's GMC around:cry:

Cheers Guys I have read the thread on your GMC Restoration Jack, it looks fantastic now!

Hi all,

Luke here,

I have a keen interest in MV's and try to attend all my local shows such as Tankfest, GDSF, TOSR and the big un's such as W&P. We currently have no MV's but my dad is looking to get a WC 51/52 in the forseeable future.

Cheers from a rainy Blandford:-D
