A last little bit of the B-29, for those there, the $5 inside guided tour was well worth the wait!

A few more ground vehicle pics, and then some photos of the B-29 !

Some more vehicle pics...

Really enjoyed the show, I drove 4 hours to get there and couldn't stay long (left the dog at home so we had to get back since peeing in the house isn't recommended), but I love the new location and the folks who go there. Friday morning and midday was very nice but rain came shortly after...

I plan on attending that Friday, not as a vendor, though. I love the new venue, and always look forward to seeing friends and attending the auction on Friday afternoon. See everyone there!

I don't sorry, I wasn't bidding on them myself. To be honest I can't even remember what base they were at. I just save pics and crap on my computer forever and ever. :)

I remember going to auctions in the late 1990s when you still had to be there and raise a paddle, they were selling a few HMMWVs then, but they were basically carcasses, scrap metal. Results of failed parachute drops or range targets. Once in a while a whole body would come out by itself, but...

I'll be the first to say that a little so-called "white noise" actually puts me to sleep, but I think this is a little too much. You'd wake up fully refreshed...but you'd be deaf.

Thanks, all, for the info. For the life of me I couldn't remember what those rivnuts were called! I am torn between removing the ones in place and putting new ones in the same location, or just drilling new holes slightly offset from the original location and putting new rivnuts there.

So I have completed my move to the new location, and getting set up for the next MV project which is refurbishing the CUCV 1009 I got from Scrounger's estate. A noticed several of the fittings where the antenna mounting brackets go into the side body sheet metal are either seized up (can't...
