Most certainly is Mike a fine gentleman indeed, knees a little sore so his first Anzac day without marching. He was sitting in our Austin Champ the same model that he drove in 1 Armoured in the 60's.

Ooops my powers of recognition slipped, an Austin Champ it is indeed!

John still enjoys swinging a spanner: he's in the process of installing a replacement Meteor in a Centurion (with a little help from his mates).

Thumbs down

It is a small world indeed.

He most certainly is working on the Armoured Musuems Cent, a very talented man indeed. Has just retrieved a NOS anxillary motor from the Musuem and is installing that at the moment.

Would you like me to pass on your regards to John?


All is forgiven for calling a Champ a Jeep just dont make the mistake again.

Dave.

Yes, please, I would like you to do that.
