Hi Barry,

You don't have to worry about Sally Anne, She went to Normandy last year and has just had a tune up ready for Guernsey's 70th liberation celebrations in May.


And John, if you're going to go all that way make sure you come back loaded! In Weatherby we were pushing tyres under the LAAT, stacking them on the limber. We used up every strap I have. Can't wait till Monday for the big unload !

James

Looks good, looking forward to more pictures, you are going to need more room!
Are you picking up something in March or having a month off?
What is in the white wrapping under the LAAT?

The engine and gearbox are under the sheet, tucked below the body and as for March, you will just have to wait and see !!!!!

As requested some more pictures:

The F60 tucked up in the workshop.

Some of the parts unloaded and the rest still to come.
