fv1609 Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 I think that is the T.V. 1000 from 1959 at the time thought to be the most powerful wheeled vehicle in existence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FV1604A Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 The good news is that it is still around. Wally Dugan is the man to know, it was in the Museum of Army Transport at Beverley for many years, until the museum sadly closed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Farrant Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 It was not a Stalwart prototype, it was a test bed for skid steering and other ideas. On display in The Tank Museum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

REME 245 Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Was this vehicle on a plinth at Leconfield at one stage. I seem to remember seeing when I was on a course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radiomike7 Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 DVLA have it as a Rhino with the reg UXM312. Built in 1959, registered in 1984 and currently untaxed, it was (is?) on display at Bovington. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REME 245 Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 (edited) I am talking about probably 30+ years ago. Prior to Bovington it was at Beverley. They must have acquired it from somewhere. Leconfield at the time was the Army School of Mechanical Transport. Edited January 16, 2023 by REME 245 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Ellis Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 XW is a London registration. I wonder if it's one of the registrations linked with FVRDE. GX is a London Registration that was reserved for official use, including FVRDE. The prototype Saladins by Crossley were RGX reghttps://sites.google.com/view/alvis-stalwart-hmlc-files/development-of-the-punt-hull Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
