Gary Allen Posted February 29, 2012 Author Share Posted February 29, 2012 YES at the moment it is the floor we are stuck on, so that would be great. Is it possible to speak to you on the phone? How far along are you with yours? Gary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joris Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 Oh my god, that can hardly be called half a vehicle, let alone a half-track! Good luck restoring them, will you keep us updated? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevenivers Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 I'm in awe of the skills of some of the people on this forum. Before i joined i would have thought the half track in the hedge was worthless scrap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamie meachin Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 Funny enough, the lorry driver who picked it up out the hedge asked if it was going to Sims scrap yard. He thought I was mad buying it to restore. I plan to make a good one out of this one and the other I have. The way iv been looking at it is keeping the cost as low down as I can which so far, I have spent about £3000 on both halftracks I have and 16 NOS boggie wheels coming next month.

That "hedge track" is worthless scrap, until someone skilled and determined enough makes something worthwhile out of it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It hurts to have to admit this...... but you are probably the only "sane" person on here....... thank goodness the rest of us "nutters" love to see something come back to life.
