No real dents as the camera pans round to a panel with more hits than the Beatles

I am absolutely appalled that the tea making facilities were not repaired and checked and i shall be writing a strongly worded letter to my MP.
-
Unusual to see you getting in something clean and not falling apart.
-
I'm just here for the star of the show, Ted.

A Stalwart with a camper van attached to its bed would be the ultimate amphibious vacation home, but only if fuel price wasn't a concern!
-
I fucking love Ted, don't you ever deny us Ted again.
-
When I was a kid, I almost wrote to 'Jim'll Fix It' because I wanted to drive a Stolly. Thank f*ck I didn't.
-
Everybody loves Ted. He is the star of the show. Super boy !!!

Nav lights, red to port green to starboard white should be an all round (if boat is less than 40 ft.) in the middle at highest point 👍⛵️

She is an absolute beauty. Someone has spent many many hours looking after her.
-
At the very beginning of this video: Does that make this a "TED TALK"? 😉
-
I got a Matcbox car of this exact vehicle in 1969. It is very exciting to see one running and driving. Thank you 🙏
-
Great Video, oh if I could have a dozen of these for missions across the Dnipro river that would be awesome
-
Best place when it was cold, wet, your soaked through after 12 hours laying minefields in BAOR - in the engine air outlet at the back, toastie and dry you in no time

10/10 videography from Ted

I do believe the gear selections are (birdeye view) 3 5 1 2 4 Move from top right right (1), bottom left (2) move up from 2 to top left (3) down to middle selection is 4 then directly up from 4 (in the centre is 5) *but... disclaimer... might be wrong! 😂

I loved driving the Stolly, especially the mobility over bad ground. Very glad I didn't have to service or work on it though. Memories of dozens of Stollies lined up, loaded with arty ammo pallets. Its a pity the modern cash-strapped Army can't have a modern version.

I'm just here for the star of the show. That DROPS 🤤
-
I had a Matchbox toy of this vehicle back in the 60's. I always thought it was cool looking!

Great looking Stally. About the cooker. Because it only worked while the engine was running, when we were out on Exercise and had an eta on when we would arrive at our "Hide out", we would empty a can of food into the cooker, ( yes, even whilst driving if you were good enough ) and when we got to our destination, we´d have a nice warm meal each or, we put all our meals into a big pot, and we called that a "Stally Stew". And we all tucked in at once, it was f..... brilliant. This brings back such great memories, thanks guys. 🤠😁👍 By the way, I think the cooking time was between 20 to 40 minutes, depending on what you put in it.
