Apparently yes 😀 Most likely because it's a historic vehicle over 40 years old. Can't wait to drive it into Brum city centre, should cause a commotion...... sdkrc, sutty2006, richardmorris and 5 others 3 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sutty2006 Posted June 20, 2021 Share Posted June 20, 2021 I love a stolly. Can’t wait to see it up and mobile. I do fancy another military vehicle one day, either an M35 Reo or an m923a2 truck. Mmmmmmm Heidel_Kakao and puddlethumper 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rod/b Posted June 20, 2021 Share Posted June 20, 2021 How much would it cost to rent one of these? I want to see how many Invacars I can jump in one. Ghosty, timolloyd, beko1987 and 7 others 1 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beko1987 Posted June 20, 2021 Share Posted June 20, 2021 Oh dear it didn't jump. Never mind... I do feel yo u should be thinking of the old YouTube destruction route too for added income. How many cars does it take to tow a stolly, how many cars can it drive through/over, taking a stolly to asda etc Heck you could film the routine maintenance and etc and monetise the lot. Might give you half the fuel money you need for a month for one! Heidel_Kakao and sporty-shite 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah the YouTube video possibilities are almost only limited by imagination, once I am settled I will be uploading at least one video a week, probably on a set day as people seem to like subscribing to channels that have a regular upload schedule.

I owned a 1978 series 3 Land Rover ambulance, ex Cyrus colours. Sold it just before they introduced the rolling tax/mot exemption because I was fed up of tax/moting it….. as you do….. unfortunatly no pictures on my phone to upload.

Sheefag Posted June 20, 2021 Share Posted June 20, 2021 Make your Stalwart stand out from all of the rest, whilst dispensing with all of the complexities of the drivetrain, with a simple bolt-on modification. brandersnatch, timolloyd, Heidel_Kakao and 3 others 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chadders Posted June 20, 2021 Share Posted June 20, 2021 If you wanted it to leap over things you could probably develop a thrust vectoring mechanism, use a heavily reinforced version of the V1 launching ramps or develop it along these lines. You might need to find a modern day Hanna Reitsch though. Heidel_Kakao 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like you are missing a tyre there dude, Nick at Tank's A Lot would be more than happy to sell you a replacement, tell him James sent you. Also why have you waited until this moment to let me know you are a fellow Stolly owner?
