Purple Tom Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Hi, My name is Tom, I'm 30 and I'm from Derby. I've been a long time lurker on this forum and my interest in historic military vehicles started when I was around 3 or 4 years old due to my Dad taking part in many heavy trials (off road) back in the 1980's, firstly with a 1957 ex-AFS Bedford RL and latterly with an Alvis Salamander. Later on he owned a 1955 Scammell Constructor (20-ton ballast tractor version) complete with Meadows petrol engine. I guess I've a little bit got it in the blood too, my Dad had a few Austin Champs before I was even born! I don't own any of my own at the moment, I'm still cutting my teeth on modern cars etc but I can see a day coming where I may own something. For now I'm enjoying marvelling at some of the armour builds on this forum as well as all the other interesting vehicles on here. Thanks for reading.
