Tremendous progress Kevin, do you have much range damage to attend to? My Loyd has been nothing but heart ache, with even the most complete part being subtly distorted and requiring remedial work. There was a complete liberty V12 available from Dave Arnold, but it may have been sold when he shifted the Cavalier.

Hi Alister, This was mostly splashed with artillary shrapnel, no penetrations to the hull, it had took a close round next to it which bent a side armour plate, (see first pic when still on the range), Also the front drivers foot plate looks like it has been fired at constantly with a heavy machine gun which has pushed it in, this will need replacing in the long run. I have seen that liberty but its a little out of my price range. and it would need a rebuild.
been working on the swing arm 'bump' stops and finished refurbishing them all today with NOS rubbers, will post some pics. kevin.

Ben
Its already nicely wrapped and nearly Christmas, Do you think it would help with domestic harmony, if he put a big ribbon on it?

Rick, She was sent shopping in Norwich with some cash on the day of the arrival, she figured something was up, I did talk her round and even said it would make a great outside 'Jacuzzi' which thinking about it is not actually a bad idea!!
 She did take this picture a week earlier while standing on a bollard so this must prove she has a slight interest ????. kev.

Easo,
Yes, but they did manage to totaly destroy the engine bay and land one right in the middle of the top of the turret that was on it when I dragged it off the range! That turret is being used in another restoration leaving Clive with a rather big hole.... ARV I wonder? David
