How long did it take to find a screwdriver with a handle the right shape?

It was one of my dads, so it must be about 60 years old, maybe more.

My research lead up a dead end and so here is the Horse ambulance so far, I think I may have to do something about the signs.
The ramp does go up and down.

Hi Zak,

Ruddy marvellous!!

WWI really suits you, you just keep on going bringing us more surprizes.
Now what about a 1/35th German Observation Balloon!
Just a thought................
Bigkev

Too much hot air Kevin. (I know hydrogen really)
You may have noticed that I only have one German vehicle and even that is a captured one.
Perhaps a British spotting balloon.

It's time you thought about doing a WW1 battleship!
Haddock.

I did consider the Emden, then I looked at your ships and decided that I could not compete!
Seriously though I am sticking to British stuff at the moment and will have to keep my eyes open.
Trench scenes are also a temptation.
Even a change of scale to 1/32 tempts me, but I am trying to behave and stick to my 1/35 British theme.
Time will tell.

Progress on the Thornycroft.
Brass mudguards, I got fed up of heating up plastic - in truth finding a former the right size was difficult.
It will look ok when painted I hope.

Ha, ha.
Thanks for the offers.

A little more work done around the cab area, found a good walk round site, it is not the same but near enough. (http://wwimodeller.co.nz/walkaround-thorneycroft-j-type-lorry-with-13pdr-anti-aircraft-gun/)

The walk round site is interesting, but my question is; are you going to replicate the little blue box full of sand?

You have eyes like a hawk, I hadn't even spotted it.
Too busy looking at the other bits.
Is it made of plastic? Oh no, more research needed into ww1 plastics.
Only time will tell.
Did they have them during the First World war?
