Can anyone identify these 2 objects.

[A.J.M]

Friend has asked me if i can identify these two objects.

One is a militery tank or similar, age of it is unknown, or any other details, but we are quite curious about it.

The other is this engine, again, no real details, but we are allowed to sell it, and split the cash. I believe it was made in Newark though.

Anyone have any ideas on either, and a possible cash value on the engine, it is kept in storage and it runs and has been owned by the seller for over 40 years.

Can't help but...

That engine is amazing!
If I could fit it in my two bed house I'd have it and play with it everyday. In fact the only thing I'd want more is my own boobs.

1000rpm? That's very low revving, must be for industrial use like a hoist or water pump? I'm guessing.

I want it now!

Is the vehicle a Ferret??

I think your "tank" is an Alvis Saladin

Cheers guys, some good info found.

So it's an APC, and not a tank.

And the engine is some sort of marine engine, any ideas if it is worth anything, or just a nice object in the shed.

Stick them on eBay and post the links here.
Sit back and watch for ten days.
Realise value.

The apc is not for sale, the engine is, but it's currently in Northen Ireland, im central scotland...



It's trying to see if its worth going back to pick it up and transport it home.
