    I just bought an M38A1

    In FL they post the minimum speed limits and I've never seen one above 45. I still wouldn't take a m38a1 above 50.

    I just bought an M38A1

    I will trade you straight up so you don't have to do anything to that beauty. <--------------- OD is the best to not start screwing with it. Your gears are so low it would be hard to get any more top end out of that 4. She is really pretty.:drool:

    Pin up art on a deuce.

    I will have a version of this on either the jeep or some military based hotrod. Since I like the OD green and black side she fits in nicely.:jumpin:

    MV Artwork

    Found out my cheep digital camera has a "Line" effect burried down in its little brain. You take a picture and it converts to a sketch. No where near as nice as Mcgregor's handy work, but allows me to get a quick sketch to play with latter with my own hand. Its a really cool tool when doing...

    Wreckerman's Wood Fired Waste Oil Heater and Possum Parcher

    Ferro's comment was all I could think to add to your operation. The vent line should come from the top but making it serviceable from the ground is the best idea. Since you are heating with flue gas I would also think about adding a bypass flue. Lets say some of the old time purposes...

    Declassified rarities from USSR

    I thought with my exposure to drilling rigs I've seen every possible means of swamp traffic possible but that last one is pretty novel. These pictures are incredible. I was curious a wile back about the mobile nuclear power plants, got any thing lying around?

    Declassified rarities from USSR

    Man to see the drive-trains on these vehicles makes my head spin. Its amazing how unafraid compared to American designs the USSR appeared to be. Now these are oddities and America actually produced some strange systems but the diversity of these is pretty cool. Thanks for posting them up. I...

    1917 Machinegun Cart....WW1

    When I was younger my grandfather and I restored a Buck-Board. Learned the value of Naval Jelly from the ole'Man. We had luck in getting the wheels from the Amish in up-state-NY. Just a FYI they also have the saw mills to cut the dimensional Oak needed to work on old stuff. Saves alot of...

    Loud horns

    The problem as stated before is that the horns/whistles do not have the timber. Tuning is kinda an art. Actual notes can be achieved and tuned but difficult at best. I would not expect it to have been you USAFSS. :o
