In!

There are some good photos of a restored 1943 Volkswagen Schwimmwagen here: http://www.blessthisstuff.com/stuff/vehicles/cars/1943-ww2-vw-schwimmwagen-for-sale/ That link does say "for sale" but it is not the sale website, just photos and videos of the schwimmwagen.

Nice purchase. I just noticed your location is DeSoto. You might be just down the road from where I work, at one of the businesses in Perimeter Park, that industrial park near the Sonic at the intersection of 83rd Street and route 7.

There is a website similar to Steel Soldiers but dedicated to surplus Soviet military vehicles, russianmilitarytrucks.com. It is fun to look around there, they have a manuals download section, a forum, and many photos. I discovered it accidently and do not know more about it.

Yes, there is now trouble opening the link. The manual which was previously at that address has been replaced by a message stating: "Heavy referral traffic has taken down our database and the SR-71 Flight Manual with it. It should be back up and running by 5/24/2010."

The SR-71 Blackbird Flight Manual has been declassified. You can read it here. The Blackbird was previously discussed on Steel Soldiers in this thread. UPDATE: due to heavy traffic the website hosting the manual has temporarily removed it. The notice there currently states that it will...

It looks like Cremo was not a soda but a beer. Googling for "Cremo Sparkling Ale" turns up several links.

Schotts and Clark Truck list them for sale. Schotts lists them at $35,000.00 each and Clark says "Call for price."

I suspect, based on the many previous discussions here at Steel Soldiers on these subjects, and the scarcity of original kits, that these would, by far, be the most popular kits which you could create for the deuce: - A fording kit. - A split-brake system kit - The bumper-mounted crane. You...

Hi. I live in Johnson County, Kansas also, in Overland Park not far from the College Blvd/Quivira Rd. intersection. Just thought I would mention that in case you are inviting people over to look at the deuce...;-). Congratulations! - Allen

You can actually see the m215 in Augusta, ME on Google Maps street view...

There is also one sitting out in field west of Augusta, Maine. Here is the link to the earlier discussion about that: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?t=26568

I live in Overland Park and work in Shawnee KS. Just moved here in December from Maine. I am interested in CUCVs. However, I have no experience with them and do not own one. It would be a good opportunity for me if I could help work on one. Any hands-on experience I can have with...

I am also in Kansas City and have been looking for exactly the same thing in the same price range for the same kind use. I finally gave up last night and bought a used Lincoln instead. I did not bid on the CUCVs at Ft. Riley because I thought that I could not wait the 3 months for the EUC to...
