I remember when the first surplus M35A3's were going for 12K or better.....the first buyers always pay a premium for something unique.
Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
That welding trailer (and it's contents) looked spectacular!I was watching that truck a bit along with the very nice welding trailer up in Alaska. A wee bit far for a recovery but the box looked pristine and you could do a lot of different things with the set up. I hope that who ever got the FMTV restores it well and gets it out into public.
I totally agree with this statement. My girlfriend gets mad at me when I talk about wanting a m1008, M1031, a couple of deuces, a HEMTT, a deuce and a half wrecker, anoher M1009, some 5-tons, one of these LMTVs when they come out, and a military cargo aircraft. I mean what's the big deal!? They're cheap!Still this hobby is cheap compared to other motor vehicle hobbies. There are muscle cars that need full resto worth well over 40k. The ammount we pay for a good running deuce or 5 ton wouldn't buy you a period corect set of tires and wheels on some cars.
This hobby is CHEAP even at it's highest levels.

Do you think that decision will ever be revisited?, now that the H1 is no longer being produced?, Isn't Hummer itself as a brand on its way out?HMMWV's will never be released again. After the USMC/UD "auction", that loophole got closed.
