    Collins Foundation gets a German Halftrack

    They list it on their website as a German OT-810. Who are they kidding? I guess another one of the fake Tigers is probably on their shopping list, too.

    HELP !!!...Solex carb kit...

    Khaki Corps is probably your only bet on this short of notice.

    Missed it by this much......

    Stalwart is 110% correct. Add to that 14 gearboxes(!), fluid flywheel, 6x6 all the time, powered brake and steering in one system that requires three accumulators to be regularly recharged with nitrogen, and an electrical system the defies description... Yes, you were lucky to miss out on this one.

    New CCKW at the Ropkey Museum

    Fred's collection dates WAY older than 1975. He started with a scout car in the late 40's. In fact he is quite likely the oldest/longest MV collector in the US. And he certainly knows a thing or two about CCKW's.

    weird gun mount on King Kong gun truck

    They used those on the V-100 turrets as well. Seems like most E1's had an M2HB mounted that way.

    New toy for the fleet

    Simple. This is not a farby site. It is not a reenactor's site. It is not a "be historically correct in all your terminology or you'll be banished" site. It is a site for military vehicles of all types, mostly trucks. Most are truck guys first. Few here give a rats a** if they use slang from...

    New toy for the fleet

    Very nice looking truck. Congrats. "Jimmy"= any truck produced by GMC = its a nickname = no one ever said it was a wartime used term = get over it.

    ...Track on a trailer...

    As stated, its a British FV432. Which BTW is over width by just 2 inches at the tracks. Might want to be careful where you go as some bug-eyed trooper could really give you grief.

    had anyone built a hmmwv/hummer?

    Dc3 is right. It will end up costing the same and will never be the real thing. You will forever be explaining its not a real one and that gets old. I would rather have a totally beat up piece of s*** real anything than a perfect kit.

    28-37 MHz range, anything?

    Is there anything to listen to in the 28-37MHz range? I'm not a radio guy but have one working in that range.

    Mid Ohio Military Vehicle Show July 23rd & 24th 2010

    Wow, that machine truck is awesome. He could earn a small fortune taking it to ATV races. Those guys are always tearing up something that needs turned.

    universal camouflage

    There is no such thing as a universal camo. You just end up with something that doesn't work most of the time; universal waste of effort. The German patterns were very terrain-specific.

    Are Wiesels being released now?

    VEBEG is a private firm licensed to do disposal. One of very few. I doubt you will ever see armor go this route, however. Wiesels are still very much in use and will be for a long time. There are not so many that they would reduce numbers especially when they are deployed to Afghanistan.
