2ndArmourMad Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 I decided to add another vehicle to my horde, this time a 1956 green goddess. lovely condition and pretty much complete, I need to replace the roof felt and clean up the lockers etc but no welding or major work needed, first up will be sticker removal and a good wash/polish. lovely. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rootes75 Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 Someone sounds keen! 100 miles thats a long old journey, a good run to try her out and make sure there are no problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh there are issues but nothing a good strip, clean and adjust can’t sort. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2ndArmourMad Posted May 26, 2020 Author Share Posted May 26, 2020 Pulling off the stickers revealed a number 23, I think I’ll never know when this was done but I’ll add it back on once it’s been repainted. It has had a Repaint at some point, which is now failing in some areas, I will give it a full repaint in its original BS colour code. Them nasty stickers are also not helping pulling off the paint when being removed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you ever heard of The Green Machine book - will be of interest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rootes75 Posted June 17, 2020 Share Posted June 17, 2020 Thats a shame, putting the money towards new projects? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2ndArmourMad Posted June 17, 2020 Author Share Posted June 17, 2020 No, this COVID 19 business has made me realise that having many military vehicles is a strain and I cannot drive them all. I’m down scaling to enjoy the simpler things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
