About 4-5 years ago there was a fellow that had a missile for sale here locally. Looked very much like the one on here. Demilled of course, just the body and fins. Had it set up on a wheeled stand. I got outbid by a loooooonng way...………. After seeing photos over the years of WWII Red Army...

The black has faded but that was NAPA spray can. The "front" photo was just this winter. Truck has always been parked outside. 12 years.

I painted my M35 Gasser in 2008. Used Gillispie thinned 4-1 with Xylene. VERY easy and forgiving and cheap in price. I've done a lot of Acrylic Urethane base/clear in my body shop over the years and while that is VERY durable, I have been pleased with this "old tech" product as well. Difference...

HHMMMM, yeah safety---- just recently got reminded about safety in a big, big way. I work for a logging outfit and have seen LOTS of accidents over the 35 years working in the woods as an adult (ran skidder for my Dad at the age of 10 but that's a bit different.) The actual work in the woods...

Welcome to the site from Salmon River Country. It's actually a good thing to start out kinda rough getting that first one home. One wouldn't want to get spoiled with the first one. Good training for all the others you'll be dragging home. Oh, yes---there WILL be others, LOL!!

A few years ago I spoke with a young lady (high school) that was visiting with family about my "collection" on the place. I explained I had a solid interest in history and mostly WWII history since my Dad and various Uncles had been there, done that. She thought for a minute with a puzzled...

Thanks, That tracked machine is a wwii era American made Cletrac M2 Medium High Speed Tractor used to move and service aircraft. VERY popular machine during the war. I was wondering if this ended up in Russia under the Lend Lease program. Have never heard or read of these being supplied in...

Hey, USSR, would you have any idea what town or city this Russian military museum is in?

Wondering if the short body would be a good choice for building fire fighting air tankers.

HHHMMMM?? , 747SP -----SP, that stand for Sport or Short Puppy

hhmmm, must have floated and boated--looks like boat registration marks on side. A lot of work went into that, good work by the looks of it. Wow, that does look like fun. You certainly would be the only one on the block with one------

Looking at the coot articulated over the rock just reminded me about one thing I seem to remember about those machines. Seems like where the front half and back half came together was a potential pinch point for hands/fingers if you didn't keep clear.
