No grey, not period correct for a late production model.

Get yourself some of those lovely reference books you were looking at here, really helped me decide where 223 should head in the mods department.....if she stays..... :haha:

It's really too bad I'll never make it to the UK, because I would say I've provided enough assistance on this one to expect I'd be allowed to drive that Bad Boy, at least once. @) @) @)

Great acquisition, and I bet it's loads of fun to play with. I can't wait to see more videos. Do you plan any changes to anything?

I want to upgrade it to 24volt.....but first I need to fix up the tiger...then add sound to my stuart then upgrade the puma so I have a full plate..and empty bank account
This is the Stuart I'm detailing...if you ever want to come over to England you can stay at my place..my wife is from North Carolina

As for my tiger barrel I managed to hit one end with a plank of wood and crack the mole I'd made to fix it in the first place..I then managed to pull the barrel out to its right size and re set it in p40 so I'll have a pic up tomorrow once it's set..so no more stumpy tiger..that saved me £150 on a new one..
