Adrian Barrell Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 As requested, some pics of my vehilcles. Thought I'd post them here rather than continuing in the welcome page. My 1942 M4A4 Sherman. Before, after and the engine just prior to fitting. [attachment deleted by admin] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 Fantastic work Adrian, thank you very much for posting........... Have you written any articles on the restoration of the Sherman? If so, we can we find them/it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrian Barrell Posted November 18, 2006 Author Share Posted November 18, 2006 Jack, there is a short photo record at http://www.geocities.com/sherman_sn5271/ courtesy of Hanno Spoelstra. It only seems to let you look at a few pages at a time though....... I have a fuller photo record but it's in an album (a real one)!

Enigma Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 Just looked at the link. Must have been very difficult to even think where to start the restauration. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tugger Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 Some....sorry, all really great pics, Fantastic work and such dedication, I really wouldn't have the faintest idea about how to go about something like that and have nothing but utmost admiration for someone who is prepared to undertake such a feat. *doffs cap* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcspool Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 there is a short photo record at http://www.geocities.com/sherman_sn5271/ courtesy of Hanno Spoelstra. It only seems to let you look at a few pages at a time though....... It's a free website, so when traffic is high (lots of people having a look at the same time) it it temporarily unavailable. Just bookmark the page and check it out later - it's well worth a look! Hanno Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rlangham Posted December 16, 2006 Share Posted December 16, 2006 Very nice - how's the Cromwell coming along? Are you taking any of the vehicles to war and peace? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 Where the hell do you find things like the Sherman? Some people are crazy, so are mad, and some just like to inflict years of sorrow onto themselves by restoring military vehicles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adrian Barrell Posted December 21, 2006 Author Share Posted December 21, 2006 I recovered the Sherman from a range. Nine years gathering parts, five years work and approx. 4000 hrs later, it's all restored! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
