    Gun Trucks to Carlisle

    If its going to be in the Midwest in 2011, why not Dayton, OH August 4-6, along with the MVPA National Convention? Thousands more would be able to see it.

    MVPA and Government Liquidation

    Sounds like a good topic for an extensive article in MV or Supply Line.

    DOD Special Agent wants to see my truck

    Some of you guys are smoking too much. He reports a phone call from an agent to verify information. Geez. A PHONE CALL. Not a search warrant, not a SWAT team surrounding the house....

    V-100 6x6 variant?

    It depends of course on condition; USAF model in MD for sale at $25K, rough, or a fully restored Army model. These go for $100k+ depending upon accessories.

    V-100 6x6 variant?

    The V-300 was sold to Panama, Philippines, and Kuwait. A bunch of the Kuwaiti ones got seized by the Iraqis in 1990 and were stored up in Tikrit in an army depot. There they go bombed all to **** during OIF. Here's some good photos: V-300 AFV in Iraq pictures from military photos on webshots

    V-100 with M134 Minigun

    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.

    Russian BTR60 APC

    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.

    Collins Foundation gets a German Halftrack

    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...

    Collins Foundation gets a German Halftrack

    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.

    Missed it by this much......

    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.

    New CCKW at the Ropkey Museum

    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.

    weird gun mount on King Kong gun truck

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