Going to be buying back my old GAZ 69A back. Now just trying to find the best method to get it back towards me. Have several places that it could be dropped off and I can pick up later or could meet somebody to swap it to my trailer. Figured if somebody happened to have space, was coming from...

GAZ-69M and BTR-152 It has been an interesting several weeks around here! GAZ-69M I picked up from the buddy in Kansas. He had it a couple years and had not driven it much so thought it was time for it to go where it would get used - and boy will it get used by me:) BTR-152 I got from a...

Picked up a UniMog load of storage boxes about a week ago from Scott AFB, IL. This is the second lot of stuff I have picked up there. Both times the GL guys and the DRMS warehouse staff there has been friendly and helpful. Not much goes through there but if it does you can plan on the staff...

And my favorite gets a close up ;) And then this weekend the UAZ had a brushguard installed It definately makes the UAZ look better. Cannot figure out how to use the IMG code on this forum to make these show pics instead of links:(

OK - looking into the possibilty of a BTR-40 to add to my motorpool. One thing that worries me is the official reports of "poor off-road requirements" I have not found what that really means. Is that compared to a GAZ69 or a T-55? What did/does it not do that they determined was needed...

It seems that there are a fair amount of East Bloc vehicle owners in the states. If you are looking for an opportunity to be able to use them as they were intended - to haul and/or support Soviet troops in the field, I have that for you. We run an event called East Wind. This is a 9 day full...

Was wondering how many other UAZ owners there were in the US. Figured might be useful to get together on overseas parts orders, share sources etc.

Just thought I would put something in this forum in case people don't look at the classifieds very much. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=PN_zClassifieds&file=detail&cat=5&de=1835 As stated in the ad - if you have an East Bloc troop/cargo truck and would like to...
