Really? Thats weird? Maybe the mods can fix it, I dunno?
Thanks and they sure do, If I couldn't have used it for a pickup I wouldn't have bought it. The AA guns were a nice addition though ;)
It gets a bit of use around my farm for stuff. Next vehicle will be a BMP-1 :D
Please do! :) I need allot of Jesterka stuff. If he has specific parts for the Jesterka I would be interested. If not, any PV3S mechanical parts will work!
And look for a MotorPal mechanical fuel pump for a Tatra 912-2 for me too please!!!!! :)
The pump should cost about $50. I am curious to know if they have one and what price. Also if they have any pars for a PLDvK 53/59 too.
^^^^^ Take Saddamsnightmare as Gospel cause its the truth :) Mogs are evil little machines!
And I'd wager to say he did too by what he wrote. You can import 25 year old foreign MV's often times a whole lot cheaper than buying a domestic vehicle. Now when you get into armored stuff and stuff...
Yep thats exactly what I said. Lots of stuff regarding the private ownership of U.S. military equipment is odd.
I personally know of at least three scout cars, one M-4 sherman, and one Halftrack that different fellows in the hobby have tried to get back in the states before Uncle Sam shut us...
Like I said, depends on state dept controls. Even as an offroad only vehicle it is still ex-uncle sam property and therefore under control.
If it was in the foreign country for over 10 years it is possible in some cases for it to be considered a foreign military vehicle but it is up to YOU to...
More pics today. Worked on measuring up some brackets to fab for a Perma-cool electric fan. The fan will be mounted up in the snout of the Lizard to aid in drawing in fresh outside air and pushing the hot engine compartment air out of the engine compartment. Need to get some airflow going on in...
I just did this.......
The regs are 21 years old or older for EPA exempt on the 3520-1 form and 25 years old or older for DOT exempt on the HS-7. Basically if the vehicle is not 25 years old or older you cannot import it and title it for the road. It will be offroad only.
Also you will find...
I moved my Enco using cinder blocks, wood blocks, a nylon lifting strap, and my engine hoist.
Was indeed an operation but I got it moved! :) What I did was to lower the knee as low as it would go then wrapped the strap around it several times to where I had the looped ends to where they were...
Jeez Duncan, sounds like you need the blue wrench (torch) for those bumper bolts. Great work however and the thickness upgrade for the body panels sounds like a great idea!!!!!! :D
Some updated pics. The new gloss white Rustoleum looks niiiiice!:-D
I havent finished the drivers side and front wall.
Behind drivers seat (side is where upholstery goes)
Passengers side rear seat.
Passengers side front (commander side)
My helper :) (little brother) replacing...
By the way, if its the diaphram pump then you can get a rebuild kit for it from GAZ or UAZ or a authorized dealer. You can also buy the material and try to make your own. Personaly I would use an electric pump, the engine could use all the extra power it can get and losing the mechanical one...
