david052 Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 Hi folks Just been reminded to introduce myself. Proud owner of a CVR(T) Sultan, not far off being roadworthy (well, we all have hopeful moments!), Land Rover Series III Piglet, MK12 Bristol Bofors L60/40, a dozen or more ex-Army battery chargers - there was a good reason for collecting them (!) and various odds and ends. The Sultan is my main effort at the moment, and if anybody has any info on Bofors LAA then that would be gratefully received. It is all in the wilds of Aberdeenshire so it is doubtful you will be seeing any of it at Beltring any time soon... Many thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick W Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 Welcome aboard- we all like to see pics though! ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snapper Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 When he says 'pics' - he means of your vehicles. Don't be alarmed. Even in the wilds of Aberdeenshire you do not escape clubhouse cleaning duties. Keep your Sultan off the dahlias. Jack does his nut when his hardy perennials get squished. Welcome aboard.

Mark Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 Welcome here David, have you got a sore head from celebrating last night, well Jack will not tolerate that football behaviour in the club house, so best keep it in the closet.

84KB11 Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 Welcome to the forum, Nice to see another Sultan owner about, had mine a little over a year now and can't help but feel they are the most unloved CVRT! If you need any advice/help PM me and I'd be pleased to help. Check out my website (see user profile) for some reference pics of mine.

Grasshopper Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 We loved your Sultan when we had it. We only sold it because you could offer it a shed..... :whistle: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david052 Posted September 14, 2007 Author Share Posted September 14, 2007 And I managed to forget the rustiest item in the shed - a 1944 CMP Ford F60S LAAT for towing the Bofors! Too much celebrating! One of my acqaintances up here has a Centurion ARV - marvellous thing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joris Posted September 14, 2007 Share Posted September 14, 2007 Wow you sure have a collection!! Welcome aboard mate, I'm sure you'll like it here! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bodge Deep Posted September 14, 2007 Share Posted September 14, 2007 Seee! Not all the cool stuff is darn sarf :whistle: Get yerself on the members map New cleaning rotas will be pinned up later this afternoon once the engineer has been and fixed the photocopier... Please stop using it for THAT Jack It wastes paper, the glass cant take the weight and we don't want that sort of thing in the canteen... puts the girls off their bottling up duties :whistle: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snapper Posted September 14, 2007 Share Posted September 14, 2007 The cracks are starting to appear. The conspiracy is working....after a fashion. I worked with a lady once who was happy to sit on the photocopier after the odd lunchtime snifter. Horrible wet thing it was, the ink used to go everywhere....made by Gestetner of Tottenham. Long gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bodge Deep Posted September 14, 2007 Share Posted September 14, 2007 ... & what was the photocopier like :dunno: :whistle: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
84KB11 Posted September 14, 2007 Share Posted September 14, 2007 Hi Grasshopper, Sultans doing well in its new home. There is still space in the shed, I could start a sanctuary...... Regards David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
