Radeks photo of the pile of scrap vehicles makes one stop and think, today they call us a wasteful and throw away world but many of those in that picture look as if they would have done further service or at least a supply of spares so little has changed in 60 odd years. I know we have heard many times of the massive glut of military equipment in the late 1940s but with the British economy being in a almost collapse situation at the time one would have expected a little more thought could have been shown but what a restorers dream to find that pile now
just a thought
cheers
Les
