Yes we do from time to time...
We've also talked about taking on a couple volunteers to help us keep this growing stable of armor maintained and fit and trim...
The work on these beasts is a little overwhelming at times, and we have to move tracks soon... the dead track on the '54 is going on...
Hey all,
Had a few ask for a family photo of the armor... today was SO beautiful BiffJ and I decided to get the toys out and let them get some sunshine...

Great day... thanks BiffJ for the hard work and dedication to these...
Nope, its basically a new engine with 37kms on the clock...
The difference is, its a RUSSIAN diesel... they are affectionately called, wet diesels...
They like and have always used in their tanks, wide tolerances that allow the oil to lube everything...
its considered a consumable, that's why...
ichudov,
Just trolling various internet boards, going to War and Peace show, talking and meeting UK dealers, traveling to Czech Republic to tour sale sites, getting to know other collectors... basically being obsessed by tanks and military vehicles I would guess... LOL!
Well the Mk15a1 showed today... and best of all, rebuilt late 2010 and fully stocked... all the hydraulic tools (even a CHAINSAW!), full set of 1 inch impact sockets (new), two jacks, and TONS of other stuff, all new... even the remote!

Anybody have any recommendations on a 360 recovery wrecker and transport company?
Thanks!
Hotshot...
I just won a Mk15A1 trailer for my Oshkosh Mk48 LVS. Will need it taken from Portsmouth VA to Richmond IN. Will require loading at pickup as its just the trailer... can you facilitate that as well... I've been told need a wrecker crane to pick it up. Thanks!
I still have two 15kw 400hz gens on trailers, with really low hours.... excellent condition.
For parts, engines, trailers, tires, etc. they are incredible. 400hz for running lights is great too.
$1500 for the pair... I've had no less than two SS members say they were taking them,
only to...
LEO and Challenger would be fairly problematic. To the best of my knowledge only one or two LEOs were let out... I know one was "loaned" to the Littlefield collection.. and rumor has it that one went to a collection in Jordan. I know there was a trainer or two that made it out, that...
No, those are the "marching fuel drums" - the russians used fuel cans on the back, that could be plumbed in for use, to move the tank long distances.
T-55 is awesome... we have an AM2, and a T-54 early, w/o the turret basket... both cool.
