I've got several diecast Ford Model Ts that would lend themselves to conversion to other variations.? Was wondering if anyone has drawings or sketches (incl dimensions) of a Model-T ambulance? Al
Hi all, I'm looking for a scale drawings of british tank tracks for MkI-IV preferable individual plates for both narrow and wide track and grousers, this is with a view to producing my own in thin sheet metal to a resonable scale thickness ..........cheers
The Mk V Tank 'America' presented to Cornell University by the British War office as the "gift of a nation to a nation" had the WD no T9128 - what did the T represent? The tank also had?the letters CS on the front horns.
? ?Cheers gentlemen, ?A little?bit off-topic; but the undoubtely related to their? WW1 ancestors,? these armored cars from the 20?s and 30?s are the subject of my latest effort. ?Here I tried a decent aproximation to the so called " SUMIDA RAILWAY ARMORED CAR" a solution to the long dista...
Hi Hi Folks, ??????????? I recently browsed through some old threads discussing recovery of Beute Panzer which mentioned the old Keilcraft 1/72nd scale kits. I managed to obtain the Fowler Showman's engine, for little money, on Ebay, and have had a crack at producing a German version using the info...
?Masters here: http://www.miniknight.com/images/H034/IMG_0001.jpg In my view these are, like the Germans, a bit too neat. And too many wearing the veste without the greatcoat, which was normally only done behind the lines or in very hot weather. In fact, if I remember correctly, it was obligato...
Hi, I am new here so I maybe treading old ground [even after a quick 'search']. I'm really interested in building a detailed 1:35 [based on Tauro A7V] or larger [scratch] UBERLANDWAGEN but cannot find plans anywhere on the net. Plans have been alluded to as appearing in a book, which appears to be out of...
?? I am a volunteer at Kingsbury Aerodrome, Kingsbury Texas where WWI replica planes are built (some really nice planes have been built and are being built) but it is also a museum in the making with lots of stuff in storage or just sitting in the hangar WWI ambulances, quad "truck", 1918 Ind...
This photo, which appears in another thread that I can't find at the moment, looks to be a Mk I male sans sponsons. It is in fact our old friend Mk II WD 785. After rechecking, I noticed three points that are identical with Bovington's Mk II as it is now. 1. The battle damage below the rear track roller next t...
Always loved the look of WWI motorcycles, especially the Clyno motorcycle and sidecar with the mounted Vickers MG. Does anyone know of a company (except the very expensive Scalelink one!) of a WWI era motorcycle, with or without a sidecar? Don't mind what scale, I know similar looking motorcycles w...
I have at last uploaded a few pictures of my Ford T (RPM) in 1/35th depicting an Australian Light Patrol Car in Palestine 1917.? All comments are welcome, good or bad ? ?They can be seen at http://flickr.com/photos/14279774@N03/? ?Paul
I recently visited Hungary and picked up a book on "Foreign AFVs in Hungarian service 1920-1945". This book is written by? Biro Adam, Eder Miklos and Sarhidai Gyula, as far as Im told, well known researchers in Hungary. In this book there is some info on LK II in hungarian service, I havent g...
Not realy a military vehicle but in the same mould (snow instead of mud, crevasses instead of trenches) see this item on the 1939 Antarctic Snow Cruiser. Tritton might have been proud of it (and it even carried its own aircraft). This actually got built.

Attached photo shows a very odd vehicle - a morane aircraft converted into a tender/firetruck. Now how was it steered? which wasy did it go - was it used as a pusher or tractor? The position of the crew suggests its going backwards.
Not another mutilated morane, but nevertheless an interesting photo at: Axis History Forum / The end of the Ottoman Empire 1908-1923/http://forum.axishistory.com/files/phoenizischer_baederexpress_194.jpg
There seems to be a lot going on at H?T that they're not telling us about through the usual channels. These are masters for Indian Troops, certainly late 19th, possibly early 20th, century. Someone who seems to know says they're Punjabi. I don't know enough to say whether these would be suitable for 19...
Further to the many discussions about the Studebaker, I came across another version of one of the?two pics of it.?In Pic 1 there's some sort of vehicle in the background, and Pic 2 is usually cropped so you can't see the other vehicle. However, in this version you can see what looks like the rear sprocke...
Can be seen here: http://www.ww1remembered.org/displayarea.htm This is clearly a substantial museum. Anyone recognise it? -- Edited by James H at 12:09, 2007-10-02
