JoelH Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 I really enjoyed that video - it seems a great deal more manoeuvrable than a Chieftain ARV. I wasn't aware of the REME Museum until this thread - it seems like an amazing collection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't aware of the REME Museum until this thread - it seems like an amazing collection. going by numbers of vehicles i would say we are the second biggest collection after bovingdon and yes its a great deal more manoverable than cheiftain and even the cent arv,my favorite tracked vehicle to drive,if all go,s to plan we will be out and about next year with it and the m74 at selected shows Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

norton 1926 Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 I enjoyed your photos of the conqueror it brought back a lot of memories. did you see the conqueror in my photos. it was one of the 1st batch to come into Germany in late 1954 or early 1955 I think. there was 4 or 5, I cannot remember exactly it was a long time ago. we transported it from hamburg to witten-annen nr Dortmund Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

landyandy Posted August 8, 2011 Author Share Posted August 8, 2011 Was that a Ferret on a trailer in the parking lot in the back ground at 0:56 ? its a fixed load on drops body,all hatches are missing but engine and gearbox still there so would make a nice resto project but it probably will be scrapped Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robin craig Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 Ahah, another sale at Withams perhaps "Rare last one ever" as the advertsing blurb or will it go down the road to the local scrap merchant with a standing offer for waste metals? Be interesting to keep tabs on it, as it would generate parts for someone. R Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
