Tony, the only bits I have left from Tims conversion are the cut out panels (painted Formply) for either side of the cab.

Bob,
Not one to name someone else's truck, But.....

PROJECT HARRY!


Harry Callahan: I know what you're thinking. "Did he fire six shots or only five?" Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement I kind of lost track myself. But being as this is a 40mm Bofors, the most powerful Blitz in the world, and would blow your head clean off, you've got to ask yourself one question: Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya, punk?

Default The Target Vehicle

Hi all - you must admit this looks pretty awesome. Leaves the Oz version for dead.

Default Most important information

Above all, remember to log out of MLU when you've finished a session on the home computer and never, NEVER divulge your password.

Cheers

Default already done!

I recall year ago John B had a gun on the back of a FGT. I suspect Tony Wheeler may know were it ended up. Not sure what became of the gun.

Hi Bob

Those photos look fantastic, I can already see the finished vehicle in your CMP stable. I think a good name for the new project should be, "PROJECT ADA" that could help bring her onside. As you know the "Little Jo" project worked for me.

Cheers

Tony

Hi Keith

That's a good idea, but I must add a password for complete privacy.

Cheers

Tony

I think you might cop a bit of Flak if you try to name an Anti-Aircraft Gun after your wife. But then again, if your already cop Flak from your Wife, you could nickname her "Bofors"!
