Kokomo? You're a bit off, by about 70 miles. It was in Crawfordsville, In:beer:

Neat pic. For those that don't know, that photo is ID'ed as being at Ubon air base in northern Thailand near the Laotian border. E2's provided air base security there and in Vietnam.

Call Larry 218-268-3009 He has a ton of 432 parts.

Aside for the numerous particularities of the BTR-60PB, sadly, they are oversized width for US roadways by a few inches. This is a big problem that can't be overcome. So, no licensing. You might as well have a tank.

Replica German vehicles are fine as long as they are represented in that fashion. Calling it a German OT-810 IMHO is not keeping history alive. Calling it a modified Czech OT-810 to simulate a German SdKfz 251D would be more appropriate. As I know those who are painstakingly building real 251's...

They list it on their website as a German OT-810. Who are they kidding? I guess another one of the fake Tigers is probably on their shopping list, too.

Khaki Corps is probably your only bet on this short of notice.

Stalwart is 110% correct. Add to that 14 gearboxes(!), fluid flywheel, 6x6 all the time, powered brake and steering in one system that requires three accumulators to be regularly recharged with nitrogen, and an electrical system the defies description... Yes, you were lucky to miss out on this one.

Fred's collection dates WAY older than 1975. He started with a scout car in the late 40's. In fact he is quite likely the oldest/longest MV collector in the US. And he certainly knows a thing or two about CCKW's.

Nice wrecker! Good to see you get it out for a yomp.

They used those on the V-100 turrets as well. Seems like most E1's had an M2HB mounted that way.

Simple. This is not a farby site. It is not a reenactor's site. It is not a "be historically correct in all your terminology or you'll be banished" site. It is a site for military vehicles of all types, mostly trucks. Most are truck guys first. Few here give a rats a** if they use slang from...

Very nice looking truck. Congrats. "Jimmy"= any truck produced by GMC = its a nickname = no one ever said it was a wartime used term = get over it.

As stated, its a British FV432. Which BTW is over width by just 2 inches at the tracks. Might want to be careful where you go as some bug-eyed trooper could really give you grief.

Dc3 is right. It will end up costing the same and will never be the real thing. You will forever be explaining its not a real one and that gets old. I would rather have a totally beat up piece of s*** real anything than a perfect kit.

Is there anything to listen to in the 28-37MHz range? I'm not a radio guy but have one working in that range.

Neat website. There are some really beautiful restorations shown.

Why are you calling it a Bulldog? Its a Trojan.
