Markheliops Posted August 8, 2008 Posted August 8, 2008 Thanks Andy - top pictures mate. Any chance you can whizz them down to me when you get a spare minute. Markheliops Quote
AndyFowler Posted August 8, 2008 Author Posted August 8, 2008 Seen at Gaydon a few years back ! Quote
N.O.S. Posted August 8, 2008 Posted August 8, 2008 didant see eny ward la frances doin the war and peac trial did u bernard ?:rofl: Every WLF needs an Explorer as a mate, to take the winch rope out to the thing stuck in doodoo :-D:-D:-D Quote
AndyFowler Posted August 8, 2008 Author Posted August 8, 2008 I can see a few oil stained gauntlets being thrown down for next years War and Peace at this rate ! :-D Quote
Markheliops Posted August 9, 2008 Posted August 9, 2008 didant see eny ward la frances doin the war and peac trial did u bernard ?:rofl: To be honest - I'd be quite happy to have a go at the off road trials but the Ward La France was never meant to be on off road wrecker. It can handle off road as it has decent ground clearance and selectable 6 wheel drive. Certainly not as good as a Scammell but then again - I just LOVE my powered crane. LOL Markheliops Quote

les freathy Posted August 10, 2008 Posted August 10, 2008 This little gimmick appeared at Duxford about 12 years ago or maybe even further back, looks like one of those Mobo pedal jeeps in the air Quote
abn deuce Posted August 10, 2008 Posted August 10, 2008 And you did'nt think they would shrink when they got wet ! Quote
chambers101 Posted August 15, 2008 Posted August 15, 2008 The off road course is pretty easy unless you don't try any of the silly holes. No problem for any vehicle really. Quote
TooTallMike Posted August 17, 2008 Posted August 17, 2008 Here's a proper WLF !!! There's one of those in Army Cars' museum with trailer and M60... :wow: Quote
Grasshopper Posted August 18, 2008 Posted August 18, 2008 Museum wasn't finished and we were not allowed to take photos when we went. Quote
N.O.S. Posted August 18, 2008 Posted August 18, 2008 Anyway Grasshopper, your hands were frozen to the linings of your pockets :-D Quote
Grasshopper Posted August 18, 2008 Posted August 18, 2008 Thats why mike had lots of folded paper insulating his pockets then..... Quote
antar Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 Museum wasn't finished and we were not allowed to take photos when we went. Are you sure it was an M746, they do have an M911 with M747 trailer which I saw a couple of years ago. The M911 is later and far greater production numbers. Only 193 M746's were ever built. USA 125 and Morocco 68. 75 of the USA ones were "sold" to Turkey mid 90's. Quote

The M911 is a very different beast: conventional for a start. I doubt an M911 would have fitted under the door lintel as they are huge! - Mike Quote
Nick Johns Posted August 26, 2008 Posted August 26, 2008 (edited) This ex Swiss Army one was at the E. Mids Evesham event, still petrol powered, the vertical pipe is raised air intake to overcome fuel vapourising problems Edited August 26, 2008 by Nick Johns Quote
