The 106mm is an interesting weapon. Are you going to put a live one on your jeep? I'd like to eventually have one operable 106 and one spotting rifle on the ontos, but that's a long ways away from happening. I know Brent Mullins has demilled 106's at his place in Texas.
The work you've done on your m114's and your v100 is amazing. My real passion is to do a fully custom Halftrack with that kind of flavor. Want to fully enclose it in and have one of the hmmwv motorized turrets, MRAP front axle with new style tires, hmmwv front windshield with the bullet proof...
I've found the correct engine for it from another SS member. It's a Chrysler 361 but is different than the 361 that they put in the m113's back in the day.
Compared to some other vehicles I've seen be restored this ones very complete. Just check out the m24 Chaffee being restored in g503 and you'll see what I mean.
That's a good point. I can optimistically say that with the parts I've found for it that it will be running and driving under its own power in less than a year. So looking forward to taking her mudding. Lol
Soon to be 2/11th owner. Lol. Well with the extra parts you found and the parts I've found for her I think I'll stick to a restoration, although I do really like the custom stuff I've seen on here though. I think if it was an M114 Id go a different route, but being that it is so rare I think...
So I happen to own an M50a1 Ontos, one of the most rare armored vehicles in private hands, and I'm conflicted about wether I should try and do a complete restoration or do something custom, like the m114 that have come out of west Georgia tactical. The problem is that the military stopped using...
Can anyone help with a pickup from lockbourne, Ohio? It weighs about 1000 lbs. never had to ship anything before so I just wanted to know if someone can help out till I can get shipping figured out.
Out of curiosity, has anyone ever swapped out the NDT tires on the van trailers for singles or for something larger? If someone had a truck with super singles wouldn't make sense to put the same on the trailer?
I'm new to the auction scene and there is an upcoming auction that I've found multiple items in different locations I want to bid on. Is there anyone who can help by picking up and helping arrange for shipment? I will reimburse your time. Locations are OKC and in Ohio. Any info is helpful. Thanks.
That's what I thought. I'm guessing there's no turret for the m920 then? Looking at maybe doing something custom. Anyone seen someone do something like this before?
