slave cables
Starting assistance.
Can't speak with any authority on jumper cables, except that as a Canadian I've been damned glad to own a couple sets. The US pattern Jeeps and M-series vehicles I'm familiar with, have a big double prong receptible somewhere handy. A select few vehicles would carry a jeezly heavy double-ended rubber cable to 'slave' the dead vehicle. I've seen pictures of slave cables on M113s in Vietnam, so the technique was well established in the mid 60's. Civilians still have to rely on less robust cables with springy hand clips to connect positive to positive, negative to negative.

I'm no expert on the CDSW and I presume you are referring to the Breakdown version. attached is a picture of the nearside rear of a preserved example seen last weekend at the North East Millitary Vehicle Club display at durham; I will look in the programme later to see if I can give you the owner's name.

If we are talking CDSW and not CDFW as mentioned in the first post? Rory Ballard ( noted Morris expert) is doing a ground up restoration on one. Like in the previous picture. He's situated near Southampton. Email me for his contact details. ronpier@talk21.com

These CDSWs really are superb looking vehicles. I really enjoyed seeing yours, Tobin, at Beltring. Sadly you weren't around at the time.
The one pictured above appeared, albeit very briefly, in the film Atonement. Here are some are some more pictures of it: http://www.ianhardy.net/gallery/main.php?g2_itemId=6471 http://www.flickr.com/photos/68171103@N00/187244544/ http://entertainment.webshots.com/ph...34109588eFvOXZ http://entertainment.webshots.com/ph...34109588UEqsPV
