Also, I found an article on there about Agressor F16s being painted in the latest Soviet schemes reminds me of the "what-if" paint schemes from my airfix days. My favourite was a Berkut painted in Flanker colours with some of its missiles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look a bit deeper on that one, most of the training prior to conflict action is now carried out by private companies in the US, aside from training private is the way the world now. In Iraq it was US forces as the largest consignment followed by US civilians with Private helicopters etc, war is big business ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Longbridge Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 On Arsebook. I remember a local farmer owned one of the first E plates years ago - I'd hazard a guess that E plates are pretty much extinct now, closely followed by F plates. XUD derv I'd assume, and looks bloody lovely for a smidge over 1k. Local Cornish plate, so it's never strayed far. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/2876782185704736/ BeEP, MorrisItalSLX, Tenmil Socket and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean you've never though of starting up your own Private Military Company? Once you've bought yourself some T62, Chieftains or even M60's, you surly have to expand to supply air support...

Seller sending pictures of strut towers in the morning, but reckons its solid and never been welded. Can’t work out why it’s so cheap, compared to any contemporary bread and butter saloons, from Itals, , Cavaliers to obvious things like Granada’s it seems massively undervalued .

Bit pricey for that though. Real shame it’s been vandalised, it looks like a very good one before that. A solid shell like that with a V6 will be like catnip to the banger brigade, I assume. Which is no worse a fate than me cutting it up for its engine and wheel arches, I suppose. Austat 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope you win this, it looks fantastic and a bargain, even at the buy it now price it is less than half what an equivalent Cortina would cost. Removing the pinstripes would make it look 100 times better. Great colour too, they also did them in orange which was fantastic. Good luck!!!
