    Steel Soldiers MV of the month 2022 - December VOTE HERE!

    Just in time saw the thread. Both the MV-Camper and the Goat are very impressive and very welll restored. Difficult to choose but .... Making your transport self-supporting is fascinating and challenging, and my late brother loved those kind of gigs. He did it with cars and with his over 100...

    Steel Soldiers MV of the month 2022 - November VOTE HERE!

    That's my big regret of not having been in the service; never got the opportunity to drive tanks or very big rigs through the sand. :tank::tank::tank::driver:

    Steel Soldiers MV of the month 2022 - November VOTE HERE!

    So its rather a unique vehicle. S5trange that the company or the army did not keep it as historic testing prototype Interesting sound of that engine, not as loud or low as I would expect. Any more interesting details, or do you have a restore thread about her?

    Scammers yet again. YOU SHOULD READ

    This rock12 and others, do they have a bot to look for phone and email data or do they just look through vendor /advert pages? Just interested. Patracy, thanks for your effort to keep us safe, very much appreciated.

    Dear European Members of Steel Soldiers I would like to ask you for help for our non-profit, as I explain in the main thread about this in the CONVERSATION section. As some of you might know, in daily life I am Founder-Director of a Czech non-profit for regional development and heritage...

    The official 2022 Southeast Military Vehicle Rally information thread (the event formerly known as the Georgia Rally). This is gonna' be awesome!

    Kenny, very good and motivating write-up. I do have to find money to come next year, and with an MV. Still dreaming about a DAF YA126, but if I get one, it won't be in the USA but over here (unless I win the lottery).

    1968 Mack M123A1C 10 ton Tank Transporter

    Maybe some European thinking, but would it not be cheaper to put it on a train? Also, where is the truck on the east coast. Since you are in Seattle, hopping it across the Canadian border and then shipping it by truck or by train might be cheaper. I do remember seeing al those flatbed trains...

    Hurricane Ian projected to reach cat 4 - FL panhandle landfall

    I have family there. One cousin lives in New Smyrna Beach, the other cousin somewhere close to Daytona Beach. A good friend in the Tampa area, but I think she recently moved a bit more inland and more northerly. So I am watching this from far away, but it sure looks scary. Stay save all of you...

    The official 2022 Southeast Military Vehicle Rally information thread (the event formerly known as the Georgia Rally). This is gonna' be awesome!

    After some searching, finally found this tread. This year definitely not, next year is hopefully possible. Cannot we get a group together to restore that abandoned train? Looks like the "rails to trails" already happened, but if we do some nice work, we could make the wagons into something...

    I went looking for what a Sterling with chain drive actually is and came across a very nice thread with lots of pics including that of the chain drive. Amazing. Her is the link with some pics made by the then new owner ;) ;) :) Jeff, did it ever had a military history? If so, you could put...

    Steel Soldiers, users age

    Update: I am now 66 years and 8 months. So as already mentioned earlier, I am no longer in the youngster group of 51-60, but in the 60 and over bin. Turns out that since getting 65, I qualified for Czech state pension, which once I get it is nice for one extra beer per month. Since July 6...

    New T813 Owner

    I keep looking, but a 813 double cabin is simple not on the market in this part of Europe anymore. Some 815 single and double cabins, but not 813. A completely rusty rotten T813 kolos would now set you back here anything between 8 000 EUR and 15 000 EUR, anything half decent will go for well...

    Urgent question - brake inspection - rear axle seals

    On the road in the Netherlands with no time and little good internet access. Normally I would search the forum and the TMs, but like said, no time now and lousy internet, and once I am back home, that supplier is 700 miles away and does not deliver abroad (legal restrictions). Once home in...
