Who thinks they purchased the best bargains?
I know Colin Jones was very happy with his purchase. Maybe he could share his story.

My mum was happy with her ceramic chook!
And even though I came home empty handed I was happy to see money in my wallet at the end of the day. A days entertainment. ![]() Hey Anthony, you should have told me before hand! Probably walked straight past each other. |

I was amazed by the number of MLU people in attendance and very few indicated they would be attending. People came from far and wide. I know of 3 from New Zealand, one from Darwin, another from Queensland and one from Western Australia along with numerous people from South Australia, New South Wales and Victoria.

![]() Sounds like a bit of competition for the Grant side mantlet. Matilda and Grant and Stag might have similar size turret rings but Stuarts have a gear in the turret and rollers on the top deck...does anyone know which tank it was for? If Grant it'd comprise about 3 rings plus the ring gear plus bearings and brass bearing spreaders all bolted together to form a unit. Stag is similar to Grant except has a sloping lower-outer face and the gear is cut from that same ring instead of being a seperate boltable item. Also the Stag top deck has a weld most of the way around the ring so if the ring was cut out you'd see the shiny weld bead around the edge. Regards Alex |

Hi Alex, I can definately say it was not for a Stuart so my guess is it was for a Matilda. Very, Very, cheap. Purchased by Mr Bellfield.
