GaryS Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 My name is Gary Stapleton, I am the founder of the Victoria Cross Trust and I also run our museum Ashworth Barracks, which is based in Doncaster. All of our staff are veterans ( unfortunately, with little experience of working on military vehicles ) We are building a nice collection, but not all are in top condition. Always open to assistance and help when offered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GaryS Posted February 22, 2016 Author Share Posted February 22, 2016 The Saracen is a challenge as none of us really have much experience of them and we are very much flying blind, but it does run well and looks to be in good condition. 05FF39 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daleheywoodtanks Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Saracen looks great, thanks for putting the pics up. Trakmark inside looks complete which is rare. Looks like it has some radio fittings, is it all working ? Well done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaryS Posted February 23, 2016 Author Share Posted February 23, 2016 We don't know about the comms yet Dale, to be honest we haven't had time, although we have a lot of Larkspur kit that we got from the REME Museum prior to their recent move.

daleheywoodtanks Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 (Forgive ignorance, Trakmark ? ) The internal padding. It seems to be one of the first things to deteriorate. i will let you know when I am passing and call in for a visit if that is ok with you. i may be able to offer some help, not sure. But it would be nice to take a look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
