Looking great Diana!

Hi fountains of knowledge, I am still looking for a few items.

I need the straps to hold the gerry cans on the back.

Also need the little balls for the tip of the antennae.

Any ideas?

Diana

Hi Diana,
The FFR looks great.

I don't know what SIII jerry can holder straps look like but Perentie ones are available from LR. They may be similar?

The antennae balls and antennae hold down clips come as a set and are available from Fair Radios Sales in the US towars the bottom of this page; Fair Radio Sales Company, Inc. - Catalog.

I was lucky and bought mine when the $AU was high against the $US so they weren't too dear. I've got 2 spare sets (2 balls and 2 clips) if you can't find them elsewhere.

Found and ordered! Thanks John

Don't worry with a price of $US10 per kit the exchange rate is no drama, Last year I bought some 9.00 16 tyres from Pennsylvania the first 5 landed at just under $A300 each. I then went and purchased another 2 about 3 months later and they were $A457 each. In October I went to get another 2 and they were over $A500 each, those ones never came, at that price I'll put up with the Alliance Traction Lugs!

Hi Diana
Congrats on the resto
Question Is the step at the rear all peices of angle or the back part box section?

**Lotz-A-Landies** · 17th January 2009, 10:08 PM

The step is 3 bits of angle welded together and fixed to the bottom of the rear cross member. I was thinking that it is original ex-army as it was on the vehicle when the P.O. bought it from Warwick Lord.

**muddy** · 17th January 2009, 10:13 PM

Yes that is original but wasn't sure about the rear piece as they are angle pieces on mine

I had a look at Black Bill's Perentie prototype and they are different to the ones on my SIII. His go from the back to the aluminium tub over the can then down to the back side of the chassis bracket.

My SIII brackets seem to have a strap that goes from the front of the chassis bracket over the can back down to the back of the chassis bracket. and would therefore need to be about 20" longer.

So I don't know if the production Perenties have the same as BB's or mine. Does anyone know the answer?

I think we had this same discussion in the "REMLR General" forum regarding my No.5 Can someone identify this TAC sign? and I was having a little fun.

In that discussion we came to the same conclusion about armoured and hence my restoration to 2Cav.
I was thinking more of the TAC on the right - it doesn't seem to be listed in the books?
