Jacques Littlefield Collection, wouldn't I love to work for that group for a month or so.
When I visited the Vimy House of the Canadian War Museum in Ottawa in 2001, they were readying a German Panzer 1 for shipment to Littlefield in California. He'd traded two other vehicles for it. I can't remember what they were. High horse trading with expensive shipping!
Ok, I've had the pleasure of visiting this twice. No Cameras allowed, that said there are a few pics out there, but.
If your ever in Fla on the East Coast, if you can get a visit, go to

Otherwise known as the Reed Knight Museum.
Outstanding
Do a search and you will find a lot of other links and sites talking about it.

If ever in Fla try to work out a visit to his museum.
Both times we had to use golf carts to drive by the military vehicles part. Someday I would like to just try to walk by that area.
HUGE

I was there in '14 but in Miami. I guess a trip down just to consume Fla would have been more to the point.Quote:

My friend had an ex RUC (Northern Ireland Police) Dingo and tyres became a problem. He considered changing the wheels but got some genuine tyres from India via the good offices of the Indian Army Liaison Officer at Warminster
Probably the nicest and most complete Dingo in the world restored and driven on a regular basis by an acquantance of mine, David Gordon who lives here in Texas. WWII British Daimler Scout Car Features
The beginning of Dave's Dingo.

David did a great job with it.
THANKS for the updated site. Looking forward to spending some time reviewing the pics.
Mine might be 30 to 45 days out. Up to the shipping company. Bought a Jeep from the same estate.

Dingoes were made locally to here, at East Challow near Wantage. The old buildings were used by an MG restoration company in the 80's and 90's and the old 'trolley lines' were still set in the concrete floor where the 'boat' (the shell) was rolled and assembled
The stories that some old buildings could tell if they could talk.
A friend has been working on an old FAMILY house. Seems it's been in the "COLT" Family for years.
Can't wait to receive the Dingo. It might have to be the lead vehicle for a friends Abbot tank. Interesting street parade.
In contact with ‘Singe’ who has put together a great Dindo Master serial number master list. Getting our future Dingo records from him.
Sapper740 -- I've found David's website. Lots of stuff on it. Even found a few things to buy. So, will try to get in contact with him asap. Thanks.
Dream On.

You're very welcome. Yes, David has a ton of rare, interesting, and unique militaria for sale but you haven't seen anything yet until you see his personal collection.Quote:
