How much is it to ship items from the sandbox to USA? I might be able to use a couple front shackle mounts off that junker deuce, they should fit in a flat rate box, but not sure if you guys can use that method of shipping.
The radio sets look like Wireless Set. No. 19s, widely used by the Allies during WWII, not so much the American Army, but the Brits, Aussies, etc. They aren't priceless, but a nice one would run around $400-500.
I believe the tank is a M24 Chaffee.
Definitely a guy who needs some new...
I bought mine last year from a guy near Bristol, TN, he had dozens of them. Can't remember his name, he was on M715Zone.com. Might have a few more, if you can dig his info up over there.
Saw this on the internet. Thought I'd share. Looks like someone in Greece has been collecting these things for a while.

Who was the guy with the video camera who was jumping in and out of the trucks on that last really tight run down the rock slope? He must have video of that....
If you have a jeep, a M37, a CUCV, or a civvy tow vehicle, you'll be amazed at how useful these trailers will be to you. I am debating getting another one to use for moving stuff around the property, I wish I never sold mine back in 2005.

Steve, you are correct, the M884 series had the overload springs to carry the S-250 shelter, and SOME of the M882 radio truck versions had them as well. The M880s did not. They are a direct swap-in.
If you can't find a parts truck with overload springs, you can fit any number of aftermarket...
Re: RE: Gilbert (or maybe call this I stink at photography).
It's my deuce, with the winch frame brackets installed and the bumper flipped, and a Mermite cooler sitting where the winch should be. The winch I got from Ethan before he passed away leaks like a sieve, I'm going to rebuild it...
Looks like a 4-wheel-drive Smurf. Looks great! Keep us updated as you go on, and when done, make sure to take it offroad to show us how well it does....
Man, I don't know what's going on, but something is wrong with everyone's camera on this site. Every picture you guys take of me makes me look fat. rofl No kidding, I need to hit the gym and not the buffet.
My pleasure hauling the CUCV, CARNAC. Hauled like it wasn't even there, because...
Just got off the phone with the Rally Commander in Chief, David. Said the pics will be posted sometime this week, he will be recovering from a long trip until then. He just got home 2100 hours Monday.
