    Problem is, he has to save some money and take a day off before her can drive it around the farm; they gobble fuel and are very slow. :tinkerbell: :smile:

    He had a few jeeps standing in another shed, didn't made pics, don't know details. He just got is some more jeeps in less good condition. Are you interested in buying one or in parts or just nice pics? TobyS, which M818 are your referring to? In the pics are two M816 wreckers, a standard M813...

    Karl, I don't think he wants to sell the GOER, maybe the 123, but it would be expensive, then add the shipping costs and insurance costs. In both cases, you are talking ro-ro transport; containers are way to small. Rotterdam is close, so getting to the port and then to the USA is no problem...

    Is a 6-ton not a bit under-powered for a heavy mover with a 20-ton trailer? Olive-Drab shows a nice color pic of a restored Corbitt 50SD6 truck (bottom of page), courtesy of the Overloon War Museum. I think that some of the stuff from this man actually came as surplus from the Overloon museum.

    I was in a hurry, arrived late Monday afternoon and I could not get the steering shaft-tube out of the control house, probably the bearings or the splines got stuck. Called it a day when it got dark and got back the next morning. Still not much success, in the end we loosened the control house...

    And some pics of the more destroyed trucks he has standing around. Although some definitely are not for destruction. And a very surprising find overgrown in the field: I could not get a good light angle and with my phone, quality is not perfect. However, this GMC standing here...

    Some more nice toys standing in the back. The biggest surprise was the M520 Goer, dwarfing the 5-ton wrecker standing next to it. Only a handful remain, and this is one of them in a very good condition. Another toy for if your neighbor parks his car in front of your driveway

    I found this place while looking for a new steering gear for our M51A2. Man, this is going to pop some eyes out, I bet. Sorry gals and guys, the place in in the Netherlands, so a wee bit too far away for most. This is a bit of what I saw arriving at his place. Then he showed me...
