We carried a 37mm, 57mm and 3” anti-tank guns, a 45 Willis Jeep, and a Dodge 43 WC63 down. There was apx 200 Boy Scouts there. After we got set up, around 10 I started...

    SteelSoldiers MV of the Month April 2015

    OK one, more time. 1943 WC63 Dodge actually used in WW2 as it can back from Norway in the early 90s. With a 57mm anti-tank cannon, that came off a firing range. Still has bullet holes in the trails, and one in the recoil cylinder cap.

    WC54 Seat Frame Plans

    I have a early WC63 with no cushions, well I actually have 2 set of cushions, but only put them on when used. They are the high side bucket ones. Is this what you need?

    Is this a CCKW rim.

    These are not DOD owned. I had TAPCOM do a search, and they show they never donated, loaned, or gave City of Memphis anything. Even "The Memphis Belle" was purchased as scrape by the city of Memphis. This was checked out when the city 1st pulled them from Confederate Park, and I was going to use...

    Is this a CCKW rim.

    He is restoring 37mm a 57mm and a 3", and making repo breechs for the Shelby County Historical Comm, for just the old welded up live breeches alone. He's a good guy, but it is a business and he has to make money. He is doing the tires by the hour, but the grand was for both tires, new tires...

    Is this a CCKW rim.

    Well, it is a restorer. They had to do this to a 37mm tire and it took 2 guys over a day to cut the tire off of the 37mm rim. He says the 3" tire and rim weighs over 200 lbs, so he is figuring 2 to 3 guys to handle it and 2 days labor. Adds up quick.

    Is this a CCKW rim.

    I have a M5 3" anti tank gun being restored. I want to put new tires on it but the tires are foam filled, and the tires will have to be cut off. This will be VERY expensive to do. Like a grand. So I thought I'd just replace the rims, but not sure what they used. Here is a shot of the rim. Is...
