This unique tug we get in dec. 2011 from a father and son who try to get a "Flugzeugschlepper" from VEBEG (its like GL).
They bit to one off them few times but.............. never get one. So some days they were careless and bid to 2 off them at the same time.
And.... they get them both. Dont know exacly, but thru the www. we get in contact and take one.
About 35 years this unimog pull for the airforce.

We do some modifications to the very heavy extra weights (each 1.3 tons) over the rear axel.
They are good for traction pulling heavy weight, but not for a standing start after redlight:p

Entries look a bit sparse..So, As there is not another in the U.K. (And just maybe..not another (just as good and as capable of performing..WITH all the original kit Anywhere in the 'world!)), here is My M45 530C. Making a bid (Plea?) for a 'Prize'
Those are BOTH nice rigs, and in spite of your good intentions you might well be in violation.

The time for nominations is passed.

It's a call for the authorities.

My M756A2 is such a useful truck, there are few days it doesn't lift or tow something. It has been a project that my sons Evil Dr. Porkchop and Black Ops completed last summer with the help of many friends: Rick Larsen for the paint mask stars and registration numbers, Dennis Amburso for getting it running and shipped from North Carolina, Keith Boda for supplying pipeline specific parts for copying, jatonka for seat covers and shift boots, Kenny Kublo windshields and special thanks to the late George Mainieri former owner of the truck for offering it to me and for being such a good friend to me and mentor to my sons.
