fv1609 32 Posted November 10, 2007 Share Posted November 10, 2007 Well for my 60th this is meant to be a difficult one, but who knows you are all getting far too good.

This is only part of it, I will reveal more as the days go by. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v684/fv1620/NBC-carcass-incinerator.jpg[/img] Link to post Share on other sites

The trouble is I don't know precisely what this vehicle is! Other than knowing what it probably isn't! Can you expand? Link to post Share on other sites
