Happened again, for one moment, I thought I should jump in and take this thing with me to the USA next year to make somebody happy: an overhauled Allison transmission for OSHKOSH, SNS 2520-01-587-4634, part number E019041 for 340 €.

There are a few auction websites in Europe that occasionally have interesting MV stuff, including ongoing now an auction called
SURPLUS Veiling (auction) ex US Army 3977 .

If I understand correctly, what you are suggesting is a bit...
I was going to suggest migginsbros put up their Harley again, so we can get a nice Harley in the calendar. However, with Microjeeps MV in the mix, I would have to vote for that one.
Is Jaap a Dutch guy? The name certainly indicates so. Can you provide a link to that truck.

I know there are several Ward la France wreckers for sale in Austria and the Netherlands, but if a...
