Pictures from first trip out with M578 As promised here are the pictures of the first trip out with the M578.

Dutch M578 Nice to hear from you Ruud, We have now finished painting the outside of the M578 and started to replace all the small parts on the outside. Last weekend we took it to its first show only about 4 miles from my friends farm where the restoration work is taking place. I have not had...

If you look close at the picture they were all severely cut by DRMO and would take some very serious repairs to get them straight again.

Quite possible that was the case. If anybody needs new road wheels for M578, M107 or M109 I do have enough to be able to sell two complete vehicle sets (40).

It certainly is Reomie, always worth a visit on the way to Germany.

According to my contact at the yard the tracks were removed by the DRMO before release. The main useable parts were the engines and transmissions, which the yard removed and sold soon after they purchased them. A quantity of radiators remain probably the only really usable parts now. What was...

Holmes 5th wheel wrecker I also have the same earlier type of Holmes 5th wheel wrecker. It is a great tool because I can swap it between my different tractors. It has as standard a 2" pin but I have a pair of adaptor collars which clamp around the 2" pin and convert it to a 3.5" pin. the...

No unfortunately land over here in the UK is far more expensive than in the USA. I delivered it to the guy who does my sandblasting which happens to be on a farm so I did get to drive it a short distance from the low loader. I will take it to Beltring (war & peace) next year and give it a good...

Just purchased an M578 this weekend. It is in full running order, crane and both winches operate ok. Picture attached shows it on the lowloader ready for journey home. It is ex-British Army but is virtually identical to the US Army ones. I am missing the air cleaner elements, correct tow cables...
