Default loved the video

Jeff
Great video !!!

When my son was young he traveled in the gunners seat. I always made him wear a hat (War time tin helmet). first he moaned he didn't want to wear it. So I showed him some old wartime pictures of men with them on
and I adapted the inside with some foam to make it fit.
Them at a show whilst travelling around the carrier bucked over some uneven ground. He fell forward onto the front armour, putting a huge dent in the helmet.

Easy to get a new helmet, cost £10.

Now I wear a helmet when I''m driving, so do my passengers. It looks authentic to.
