FoolsHumor Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 Greetings from yet another newcomer, My name is Bob and I am from the heartland of the USA. Yes, sorry, another one. Some of you have put up with me for a number of years on both the old and new Ferret Forums. I should have left well enough alone with the Ferrets, but now I have recently purchased a Saracen with some gearbox problems and that new project has led me to this group. I have tried to search the archives so I do not go back over too many of the same old topics. Apologies when I do. Aside from the military vehicles I also have more other mechanical interests than I have either time or money to properly support. I am sure many of you suffer the same type of afflictions. God help us all. It currently includes a brace of Ferrets, a Saracen, a Land Rover for the Lady of the House, a 1949 International KB-2 truck, an E-Type Jag, old Gravely 2 wheeled mowing equipment. a 1940 Aeronca Chief airplane, and a bunch of things that shoot. The most recent of which is a Sterling Mk4. I have also owned an assortment of MG’s, Triumphs, and several 441 Victor BSA motorcycles. Thanks to the Moderators for allowing me into the group. Kind Regards, Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowtracdave Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 Welcome aboard Bob . With a stable like yours it sounds like you could be kept pretty busy - if only taking them all out for exercise . Enjoy your time on here , you'll find plenty of others similarly afflicted . Davie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony B Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 Hi Bob, bettween you and Paul the clubhouse will need a new runway. Our approach to UK planning enquires is normally armoured, so you won't have to circle long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snapper Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 Welcome to the Friendly Forum, Bob. Looks like you know a few people already. Your key to the clubhouse is in the post. Post up some snaps of your fleet so we can admire them from afar. MB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FoolsHumor Posted June 26, 2009 Author Share Posted June 26, 2009 Gentlemen, Thank you all for the warm welcome. Much appreciated. Chris, Mike, good to have some familiar voices out there. As to Mark's request for some photos, I will do that as soon as I sort out how its done. The one problem is then you will all see how poorly maintained most of my projects are. Except the old airplane, I try not to scrimpt there for obvious reasons. Regards, Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
