Striker day van tank has its windows fitted and I got bored waiting for bank of Scotland to answer my call so developed a hands free system. As of today our 8 Rottweilers are on dog food and not amused. But a good day.
Finished the first snatch, new mot but waiting for V5 20,000 kilometres drives great, everything works as it should.looking for £12,000 for a vehicle that costs close to quarter of a mill.
Another day on the Striker, was pretty productive. Even Mr Smith can get in the Drivers seat.
Lots of work on the Striker kiddy camper, love the new opening for your bigger driver. With a bit of luck we should get the new side opening drivers hatch from Allweld and the tigging ( alloy welding ) on the repositioned hinges won’t be to neat and blend in with the rest of the vehicle. I noticed a bald bit on the back of my head from Mrs Mead’s haircut, hmmmmm.
I went for a walk today, Get some fresh air in my lungs, thought you’d like to see the little gems that are resting, not rusting 😉☺️
Well I was in two minds about tastefully turning the striker in to a kiddy day van. I decided to ring a someone with a young family who would give me an opinion that I would value. He was very enthusiastic, paused then said ‘ could I buy it ‘ well you can’t say fairer than that.
First phone call,Crack on boys.
WHAT DO YOU THINK !
I’m keen to make this striker in to a day van basically cut three windows, strip out the back and carpet it in green crocodile pattern. Then make up some seats for young kids. Personally I think lots of guys with young family’s would love the idea of going to shows with something that appeals to the kids. It would be possible to make some steel plates that slide in to channels to cover the windows when it was doing poppy day parades.
I need every ones views on this before I hack away with the grinder.
Lots of jobs all at once in and outside of the Afghan workshops.Do we make the Striker in to a day van, some thing to take your kids out in.
After a 25 mile excursion in my new Ferrett all around Banbury ,when I get back I find Commander Kate mead, head of filming had been sitting in the turret grinning and forgotten to take one single movie of bemused Polish people we encountered on our refuelling recce. Court marshal or enthusiastic spanking later on, obviously guilty, yep spanking it is.
Things are seriously quiet, all those fun and crazy jobs that we are asked to do with tanks seem like distant memories.
Lots of interest in sales and some scary customers to.
Me thinks I better tread carefully on who gets tanked up.
Took a large deposit last Saturday on Margaret thatchers armoured bus built for her and her cabinet after the Brighton bombings at a cost of many millions even back then. Now he’s not returning my messages or calls. His loss somebody else’s gain. It’s available with her Union Jack boots and Union Jack umbrella . A one off piece of British history with very low milage.could come in very handy in the not so distant future.
What do tank fixers do in the middle of a pandemic, well they fix tanks of course. not sure if we will need them but hate to see a new vehicle not ready for anything. Who knows we could be asked to escourt toilet roll lorries to retail outlets. We’ve been asked to do stranger things here at tanks a lot.
The truth is I don’t really like tanks an guns, I only ever wanted my own luxury toilet roll factory. It’s hard and expensive to start a factory like that from scratch so I have had an idea on just recycling used toilet roll. Could every one just stop flushing it away and save it for me. I can collect on a monthly basis door to door by Tanklimo.
What’s better than a huge green one, possibly a huge yellow one. Basically it’s all about huge with girls.
Decided to combat the corona virus by planting fruit trees all along our public footpath. Notice who does all the digging.
A real fun day doing a corporate day. Thank you Montague Evans for getting us out of the workshops. Thank you Nigel for doing the cooking, it’s been over 4 hours since I’ve eaten and I’m feeling fine. Great driving in tough conditions and a quality car crush by Tom our winner but only with a bonus point from his team winning the Bren strip.
Thanks team, pretty smooth day, thanks tanks for not blowing your boilers in all that mud.
Three more vehicles arrived today, which do you think I like best. Young Robert learnt a valuable lesson on track tension and Mr smith ruined his own birthday present I had bought him.
Plus Forces radio filmed me all day, forces radio filming, am I missing something.
Up at 5.30am only to wait 5 hours to get a railway thingy unloaded so we could go and pick up another Abbott.
MADE IN FRANCE these railway machines and nobody knows how to start them.
Won’t make it home, ran out of driving hours, but I know a little beauty who will come and find me and take me home xxxx
Endured the boredom of putting adverts together for the website today, but good news on the fist full of Land Rover wolf vV5’s that arrived today from DVLA .We plan to drop the prices and make some space,lots to choose from.
More progress on our new Abbott, the broken turret traverse shaft is being copied and should be back by Monday and a shock absorber is on the right front swing arm now so mechanically she should be ready very soon Picking up another Abbott on Monday so we need to crack on.
What a day! The ‘Spartan’ leaves for America and I brought a T16 Bren gun carrier in the states, that’s a first for Tanks a lot.
Some progress made replacing track links and shockers on the new Abbott.
The Springer is ready to go and will be advertised on the website shortly!
Won a very low miles / hours 439.
And me fat fingers also won a one off hand built sports car while I was testing my i bidder. Loosely based on a Rover p6 3.5 V8
If nothing else, it would make a great VIP car crush.
Tods giving £50 to the first person who spots his deliberate mistake ring.01280704552
Pleased with the new Abbott, already cracking on with a few jobs on it.Track bashing our speciality tomorrow I’m shock absorber hunting and hopefully find the right drop arm that should be fitted.
A mixed and busy day. The Beach monster is back from snettisham safely and a Springer arrived on the Lowloader to from the auction, they lost my shovels and the term V5 applied for means we haven’t bothered do it yourself without a 654 mod release form and DVLA rejection letter in the paper work, a nice big cheers to who ever wrote the Springer description.
An Abbott with good potential was bought as well to day. Some Smoke dischargers adapted for the
Striker and the Hagglund almost ready to spray.
Military auctions, don’t you just love them. Wife had her own ideas on what she wanted for Christmas and birthday.
