    European scrap - salvage yards and parts suppliers

    Netherlands - Reomie US 2 1/2 and 5 ton trucks Reomie. Located in Ooij, near Nijmegen, the Netherlands. They used to have hundreds of trucks but they are winding down. Friendly people, but sending outside the Netherlands by mail is a problem for military material. Link: http://reomie.com/

    Steel Soldiers MV of the month 2019 - October VOTE HERE!

    Finally some time to canvas. Hopefully we will now manage to complete the restoration: back in my son's workshop area Two oldies still going strong. A 54 year old 5-ton Dump truck weighing 10 000 kg and a more than a century old steam hammer weighing in at 20 metric tonnes with a 750...

    5-ton multifuel does not start

    Reading Texandy's remarks and my own words, I remembered that I posted on another thread about this as well. Then I found back Gimpyrobb's sticky about this on the Deuce, and decided to update that thread with my experience. The short of it: an engine stop lever stuck in out, which kept the...

    How to remove the Fuel Shutoff Rod on the IP

    Update for a 5-ton no-start multi fuel. Posted on that here. Thanks to some remarks by Texandy and speeding up my own brains, I found back this and other threads on the topic. Best to put my experience and pics here as well. The cover with the engine stop lever on the right. It had been in the...

    5-ton multifuel does not start

    My M51A2 multi fuel has been stationary quite long, awaiting repairs but moved a few times to make place for repairs on the workshop itself. Last time it was moved to a nearby field without problem. Now, 6 months later, the workshop is ready but I cannot get the truck started. Normally, even in...

    Would be very interesting for us to see that equipment. We are operating a blacksmith workshop that originally was of a farrier who also made the steel rims for around the wooden wagon wheels. We sometimes do demonstrations of shoeing. Also, in our WW1 project, we came across mobile...

    Just to clear up some potential confusion: POMCUS and POMS are basically the same thing: :tank::tank::tank:.

    MV of the Month October 2019 Nominations

    Great pics, especially of the truck with the mule. As many pictures as possible is often a good thing, but which pic is going to represent your truck? Unleash your picture collection in the voting thread, but according the wise tribal elders (not me) controlling the nominations: :rules: 2. -...

    Some pics from inside and outside pomcus (or POMS) in the Netherlands and Germany. My probably naive idea of the POMS routine below. Every half year, a group would come, start all engines, run them warm, then replace ALL oils and filters and whatever. Then they would switch off the light...
