I have an older friend who served on these in Australia and he once told me that all of the Saladins and Ferrets had bent mudguards from people standing on them.
Great video chaps, love to see the quirky engineering on that vehicle, clearly function over form or ergonomics. Also great to see some hand fabricated repair sections being let in, it's all too easy to nip to the local motor factors and pick up off the shelf Daimler Ferret replacement panels. 😉
Have you not got any pictures of the internal equipment layout ? You could always put a post on the army rumours service, some knowledgeable people on their
Please get rid of the "cannon" it looks ghastly! In the mid sixties, ours carried a 30 Calibre medium machine gun that had been converted to take the then 7.62 NATO round.

Thats a worthy project
Great videos! Wish I had the Ferret in my garage.

Thanks Graham. Glad you're still enjoying them.

Great video. Thank you. Subscribed.

cool video, but please next time try to get both audio channels working, be it with mono audio or otherwise
Thanks. Was it any particular part with the sound issues? I'd not noticed it wasn't right or I wouldn't have published it.
I could do with one of those✌️👍😉😀
