It's an old thread but I came across it after seeing the WWII version Slouch Hat by WPG. I though it might be useful to add my 2 cents. I've owned many original hats produced during most years of WWII and from the very few pics i've seen of this representation it looks pretty good. I do have...

Forgot to add, you might check out that rebuild just down the road from you at Pt Cook. Humming along when I was there 1.5 yrs ago. :D

Hello Tim, how's it going, did you get that B after you got the kid?? I love the Mossie and it's probably all due to soaking it up in the '60's in films like 633 Sqn. This is a bit of digital art I knocked up a few years ago, showed it to an old Mate who flew Beaufighters and he just said...

Red Raiders A-2 For interest this is a Red Raiders A-2 I picked up last year, locally made V505 jacket- something i've wanted to get for for a very long time. It belonged to a B-26 Pilot from the 2ndBS 22ndBG and has two lovely Australian made patches. The back was painted at some time with...

They might have the skills and equipment but the real issue with the 36'ers was working with the sheepskin lining and not the outers and they don't appear to have anything like that in their inventory. Still it's possibly worth at least asking the question of them...

With regard to the possible RMW 1936 pattern replicas the news is not good unfortunately. They confirmed to me today that due to several reasons that will not be proceeding with the project. They had commenced making a prototype but found that despite using the best equipment and skills they...

Yes, it's been a while so i've put some calls in today and hopefully i'll have some sort of response to post soon- fingers crossed.

Not that hard to find. I have two, a Perry and a RW27752. They just cost a lot more :) If you're interested in a premium RW drop me a line.

Time is creeping on. This sad but timely news sparked me into reaching for a 1st ed copy of Russel Braddon's book on her that I bought years ago that somehow I hadn't read and which I will now remedy.

Checked the rules and it appears live links are ok now, but if this is the wrong spot then delete away and apologies in advance. Pm me if you need some additional info. Selling some of my babies, First is a RW 27752 sz 48, excellent condition...

Soren, i'll take you out for a spin when you visit! Tim, we're booked to fly into Christchurch mid Aug with plans to drive to Queenstown and loop back via the glaciers over 9 days. I'll need some wheels so where can I find this guy? Incidentally i'll be taking Kiwi Irvin with me.... I'll give...

A rare cold day ...last weekend. My favourite (with a standard collar no less) got an airing. Traded in the MG for something with more HP...
