Are they going after ALL old vehicles or just MVs in particular? I could see what your Rep's answer making sense if it was any & everything made before a certain date but the auto makers going just after MVs seems odd. Let's face it: MVs & the people who own them are such a nitche market like...

So if I understand this correctly, if you currently have an MV (or purchase one in the near future) and put regular tags on it before 12-31-2018, you are good to go? It's only after the December 2018 cut off that the (much) more restrictive plates become the only option? It's posted in this...

Some more reading for you: First tank-vs-tank combat took place on April 24th 1918 near the village of Villers-Bretonneux. Given the overall speed of the tanks of the day that were involved, it must have been like watching dergibles dog fight...

A few little tid bits for those interested in W.W.I tanks. German tank production during the Great War was 20 type A7V tanks. The only surviving A7V is located in Australia. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mephisto_(tank) The French were the first to set the layout of the modern battle tank...

I wanted to post: "They call those guys Ferret Owners" :naner: Matt

Wonder what the difference is in foot pounds of torque between the Mopar crate engine & the OEM unit used in the V-100? Wonder if that could be a problem for the V-100's T-case? I'm reminded of back in the day when guys would shoe horn a V8 into the engine compartment of an MB or GPW and the...

I have a coupon................. Matt

Need to have a closer look at West Virginia. This law effectively puts me (and a lot of others) out of the MV hobby.... Think I liked Va better when it was red...

So...........That's an old "coot" then? rofl Matt

Like others have posted it 1) looks home made and 2) it kinda grows on you. Looking at the wheel arrangement the rear appears to be a conventional rear axle and the front tires appear to be too close to the hull to have much of a turning radius...

Unfortunately, the carryalls didn't have the production numbers that the weapons carriers did. Times that by the carryall's popularity, factor in that the last ones built were built 75 years ago and what we wind up with is a difficult MV to source nowadays. Did you contact Midwest Military...

Wasn't exactly sure if this is the correct forum to post this as Steel Soldiers doesn't exactly have an "Armored Car" section. Anyone on here happen to know what the spark plug gap would be for a Rolls B-60 engine used in the Ferret scout car...

Thanks for posting the pics of the M548s. I know I could use the tail gate off the red one for mine 2cents...... I think mine was a former NC game & inland fisheries vehicle. At least that's what the seller told me...

I think that if the OP doesn't want to go the price for an Sherman than he's definately not going to like the prices that M24s are bringing these days. They are a really nice tank BTW.... Matt

How about this one? http://www.russianmilitary.co.uk/details.php?id=54 This is another good site for info on T34s (well, MVs in general) I'm sure there's an owner or two over on here: http://hmvf.co.uk/forum.php Matt

There was a time not to long ago when you could've picked one of those up for 25-35k not so much anymore. ( I can remember back in '89 the Czechs were attempting to sell them for scap value of the steel in order to get hard currency. You could get a running one for around 5k -maybe less!). From...

When I was (really) into the Dodges I knew all of the WC designations but now not so much....Sucks getting old...... Matt

Thanks, Carnac. I thought the jacks were used in pairs........ Matt

WC53 is that the Carryall? I think Midwest Military had one for sale that was in pretty good shape (candidate for resto). Can't tell you what they wanted for it, though. Matt

Were track jacks carried aboard M113 APCs? How many were carried? just one or were they used in pairs? Regards, Matt
