This probably is also a not-allowed entry, but maybe for an honorable mentioning: Rudy, the T34 my blacksmith son's apprentices made for this year's "masopust" ( Shrovetide, the 2- or 3-day European historic version of Carnival). FYI, this is just keeping my hand in; hopefully this spring I...

:shrugs: Forgot that February has only 28 days, so was too late with voting.aua

Maybe put a link to it to make it simple for illiterates like me?

:cry: I was soo hoping to campaign for my toy :unsure: So real contestants, please start tell me why I should vote for your rig. (y)(n) ???????

Since we have so few contestants, can I submit this one? :) I can put it outside in the snow if you want. It's a Scammell Pioneer Recovery Vehicle, by Lesley Matchbox. Lesley mentions it as a Scammell Breakdown Truck. Has been in my possession for over 55 years

You are a brave man to just cut all those wires and hoses; hope you made lots of pics and descriptions beforehand so you build it back together. That is always my mistake: 10 years later I often don't understand my own picture and note sequence anymore when rebuilding. Or lost them altogether.

At least for such things, I would love to live in the USA. If you would do anything like that anywhere in the EU, the national authorities would say that this car is no longer the original vehicle but a new vehicle, and as such needs a new homologation (national type approval). You don't want...

you write in a fascinating way, keep it coming. When driving back from Germany to the Czech Republic, saw this one recently along the road.

A bit of paint and a few boards and it looks as good as new. What about mounting some floats under the landing gear, you could use it as a fishing boat. Probably don't need a fishing rod; the fish will come up floating from laughing or shock.

Make it into a garden Tiny House for rent, with separate outhouse.

I can't believe I did this, but I voted for a, what Ron said "5 ton wheel clog" ;)
