Jack Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 And who is the madman who own's the dragon wagon :schocked: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mick.wilson Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 And who is the madman who owns the dragon wagon :schocked: Nice isn’t she, it lives only 5 miles from the event and has only been on show twice, both times at the Victory show, its the only one in the UK with the original engine in (same engine at the Motor Torpedo Boats :schocked:) got a ride in it (sounds great) but the 4 gallons to the mile puts me off getting one. The same guy owns about 7 Diamond T's and lots of other goodies and lends us some of his trucks for our display. We also had one of his Diamond T that was on the original Red Ball Express 8-) 8-) 8-) Mick. http://www.514th.co.uk/images/Victory2006/99.jpg[/img] http://www.514th.co.uk/images/Victory2006/100.jpg[/img] http://www.514th.co.uk/images/Victory2006/101.jpg[/img] http://www.514th.co.uk/images/Victory2006/102.jpg[/img] http://www.514th.co.uk/images/Victory2006/103.jpg[/img] http://www.514th.co.uk/images/Victory2006/104.jpg[/img] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
