Very sadly not, sold her for an other project. Since selling her we found our Gt Gt Uncle (the only Jamaican born Aircrewman to fly in the BoB) flying Blenhiems was based at RAF St Eval where she came from. She is now at the Cornwall at War museum where many more people can see her

@@Kit_The_Fist I often watch your video. I have a Standard myself, I just love to hear them start. Mines the exact same, 3 pulls on choke, slight splutter, Back off to half 2 more pulls and up he goes. Mines a boy! Very charismatic

@@09amusement Thank you, we should post more of the other vehicles really. Yes it's a wonderful noise & a lovely historical vehicle to mess around with. I miss looking after it a great deal & if we can we'll get another one day. A fair amount of restoration had to be done, one rare feature was the hand cut front wheel cross bar, only a few had that due to bombing & shortages. The numbers were my Uncles Squadron & the number is my Grandmothers Birthday. We used the funds to buy a GMC CCKW from a freind which really looked after us, my son & I had a wonderful trip to Normandy in. If you look closely in the Brad Pitt film 'Allied' you can see 'Nan' & I in it towing a full bomb load, we have some wonderful pictures. Must admit if we'd known the Family connection to the Airfield she worked on it would never have been sold but perhaps its fitting & in a much better place where many can see her so I'm happy in many ways that happened

Il n'y a pas ici que des CCKW mais aussi des command-cars Dodge et des jeeps.

what is abt the save max maintainable road speed?
@Kit_The_Fist3 жыл бұрын
This was just cruising to the pub, it did 18mph with the govnr, ungovn’d 28-30mph, there were a few accidents on airfields so they limited them. Quite a handful even at 17/18
