On a side note, CAMO finally has a good start on an "MV Petting Zoo"!!:D I have a DUKW, Doc has a MULE, Chris has a "Goat", we have several "MUTTS", gosh...wonder if we need to hire a VET??:tinkerbell::tinkerbell::tinkerbell:

Ummm...yer starting ta scare me Pat...:-( The avatar...that post...er...bouncing me....are you evil??:patracy:

Strange title?? DUKW Causes Heart attack??:shock: Swiss...let me just tell you to read the first post...then imagine you are an old fat feller with some fairly neat stuff from most eras EXCEPT WWII. Then imagine a friend calls you when you are mad as a wet hen and your blood pressure is...

Go easy on him Ron...he's old...and senile...and gooffy...and his feet stink!:sad:

Hmmm...let me get back to you on that...:tinkerbell: Does that include the property in Bed Rock Alabama??:)

Have at it Commadore!!! There's a nice boat ramp not a thousand meters from the compound!!:D I'll stand there and watch and sip some of Zout's "super juice" and clap like a silly school girl!! BUT!!!....I WILL NOT be on board!!

Obviously...we haven't met!:D Trust me...don't bet what ya can't afford to loose...cause ya will!:deadhorse:

I said my peace in post # 109....I'll finance whatever within reason but if you or Ron think I'm getting on that thing in the water...you will have a fight like you have NEVER seen...and it WON't be a fair fight!!:shock:

Fine then!!!aua You sound like Troy and Tony!!:deadhorse: Let me rephrase...She won't swim with ME on board!!!:shock::oops::oops:

Beer and Zout's "special elixor" keeps me young looking and healthy!:D Plus...playing with MV's gives my mind a good workout...er...wait...who are you again??:shock::oops:

Thank you for the post Sir but I have a very different mission in mind for the DUKW: I want her to represent the WWII folks and the amazing technology that went into her for the period. Frankly...I am dumfounded!!:D She will never swim, she will never make money for rides etc....at least...

Did you just call Zout's sister a 'HO??:shock: The "Master Blaster" was at the compound on business yesterday and looked at the DUKW, he's licking his chops to get started...says it will clean up "real nice"!!

Crew candidates Zout's sister came down today and applied for the "1st Mates" position on the DUKW. Of course I explained it was only a part time position...meaning when MB is not around!!:shock::oops::oops:

Well poop...that was the wrong pic...maybe Zout will post his Pirate Pic.

Well Clinto...she will never be a museum grade resto...I don't have that kinda money...nor do I have the intent to do so. My intent was/is to save her from the scrapper...which was her destiny, stop the deterioration and get her in some semblance of the military marvel she once was. That means...

Here's a short vid Tony made of the DUKW arriving in it's new "nesting place":

Ummm...I'm afraid I'm built more like the "Skipper"...LOL:shock:

Well...I feel a little "dingy" after a good shot of that Polish Bison Grass Vodka MKT Mike gave me at the rally and I was pondering a good name for the DUKW.:D I think I have settled on "Donald"! Get it?? Donald the DUKW??:shock::shock:

She won't see ANY loads and maybe 3 parades and 3 or 4 displays a year...so maybe 50 miles per year? Well wait...might drive her to to the VFW on wednesdays for steak day..LOL...That's about another mile a week! Let's splurge and say she gets driven 150 miles...per year!!:shock:

Actually, I think Clinto would have passed on this project!:shock: The cost in blue latex gloves alone would make the restore cost prohibitive!!auaaua
