Baxter:
Had a couple of spare hours and I've finally managed to get my project running.

This is the first time it's moved under it's own steam.

We just moved house, and we have paperwork everywhere but I've just been digging and I've managed to find my Fahrzeug-Identitats-Urkunde to prove the vehciles age, tomorrow I will drop it in at the test centre and see if we can get a MOT on it (Mot = Ministry Of Transport, a annual test of the vehicles roadworthyness)
Once I have a MOT I can then try and register the vehicle in the UK, as this Iltis has no paperwork I have to treat it as a personal import.
I've had lots of fun with old Diesel pumps! I'm on my 3rd at the moment!
It sounds like the cardan shaft may need attention, we have a rhythmical "clunk" under acceleration.
From what I gather the Iltis has not been used since it left the German tank training ground in Wales in 1996!!
I'm expecting a few "issues"
Oh, and the brakes are terrible!! the hand brake is even worse!!
:)

Housil:
Great! It runs like a sewing machine (German compliment)

Snoop:
OK, Headlights need to be adjusted!!! ;)  ;)  ;)

Great job, Baxter, glad to see that one more Iltis is back on the road.
Keep it runing.

As I can see you are a big fan of nice german engineering.
-Eibach
-H&R
-Bilstein
-Volkswagen
etc...

But what the hell is the language you guys are talking??? ;)

Keep my fingers crossed for your MOT

D.Thilo:

I wish you good luck for the paperwork.


Best regards

Baxter:
Well, it passed it's test!
:)

language? that's the queens English that is!
:lol

Yorkshire born, Yorkshire bred, Stong in't arm, thick in't 'ed.

If you understand that I will send you a mint ritter sport through the post!

-Fuel guage now works.
-Horn is now behaving itself.
-Cooling system now water tight (finally)

Headlamps have masks fitted, it's quiet legal here, plus I cannot buy RHD iltis headlamps! they do not exsist.
I can buy Polo headlamps but they have the rubbish old headlamp bulbs, not H4.
So, i have bought some adapters for the bulb. i will eventually fit right hand drive headlamps, fit the adapters so i can use H4 headlamp bulbs.
A rear fog light here is compulsary since 1980, luckily in all the boxes that came with the Iltis there was one with it, a nice metal military hella one, just the part!
I will add some pictures shortly.
Cheers for the kind words.
