fesm_ndt Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 As discussed I was told by my friends and colleagues that it would be in poor taste to work on the Pinz on Christmas day. So I had a special day with the wife as I took her to the Army museum. I know, I'm a softy :cool2: So, of course I took piccy's of the MV's First a Stonefield Goomba Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Farrant Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 Mike, Good photos, thanks. The first photo of a Ferret was mysterious, I see it did not have an engine or transmission, but think it may have been a diesel conversion, maybe by GKL who are based in your region. The telling point is the silencer is on the opposite side. What you thought might be a Staghound is actually a Daimler Armoured Car. Happy Christmas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil munga Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 Hi, that looks to be a very good museum , my other half would not be pleased at the best of times if I was to take her to a place like that or any place with mechanical objects for that matter ,,, as for working Xmas day I don't think I'd get away with changing an engine like in the past , But like I say to her "the animals still need feeding" , All the best Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Christmas I thought there would be some quirks on the versions here. For some reason I was having a very close look at that. Then I came back and saw the post regarding a Ferret silencer repair!! Making silencers here, in stainless is peanuts.... I should start a business shipping them :-D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
