This would make a perfect couple as MVs for somebody living near a lot of water: The Caspian Sea Monster - "Lun" ekranoplan. Don't expect to see this plane taking off, its supposed to skim over the water with a horrifying speed and fire rockets while doing so. Another contraption that...

Great pics. For those who don't know it: REFORGER details. My truck came from the POMCUS in Ter Apel, Netherlands First post, third picture, looks like a small military or civilian airport in the back. Looks like some pics are from Germany, but I can't read the signs on the pubs in the pics.

As you see, the question is not exactly new, and always get lots of reactions. As disclaimer: serious :soapbox: :deadhorse: :rant: ahead Here is my older thread, nine pages long, on this topic. In short. Do you NEED a CDL when driving a 5 ton: in my opinion YES Are you legally...

I am also wating for some heavy canvassing from the wrecker crews

Too bad I have a short-base 5-ton, would love to do something similar

Capt Pat, if you are 71 and have a wipple for pancreatic cancer behind you, count yourself lucky and blessed and :not worthy: for still going strong.

Just joined the 65+ group, 10 years after buying my first and only MV.

That is a neat contraption Looked around and found a nice video on how to use it, although maybe a bit long (disclaimer: its from the manufacturer, unfortunately they don't pay me for it).

Can't you do it like this? The Pete is strong enough for it. The picture is taken at Mile 422 Alaska Highway late March 1981. :love: .. :beer: .. :love: (I want to go back there, I miss it :cry:) I like the Pete, can I come and drive it? I can visit the museum next door as well, looks great.

Swiss, is this the M62 you repaired with Ron or am I mixing up my memories? Maybe post some more pics if so (also if not).

Who would that be? Kids are long out of the house and have kids of their own and my better half is not sure what she dislikes more: computers or trucks. (disclaimer: she works almost full-time with PCs, is better than average in it, just doesn't like work with programs that don't work like...

Lovely. I would volunteer to work one of those on the Alaska Highway

Yes Yes, I would and did consider it, but unfortunately, that is a big It would go against the forum rules and the purchase agreement. I bought this one personally, with a clear agreement that it will not be published online or sold further. So I don't mind sharing it with individual...

OK Olga's brother got their meadows back in restitution, only it turned out the communists had built a small airfield for agriculture spraying partly on those meadows. That should be big enough for a C5A or C-17. From there, its only 12 miles to the workshop. Actually, I found my own truck in...

These front wheels look awfully small somehow, like pre-war tires

I'll be glad to host it in my son's blacksmith workshop in the forest, but getting your trucks here might be a whee bit of a problem. ⛴⛴:-D

I also used normal tools with force extenders before I had the wrench. But beware, sometimes between a stubborn nut and a long-enough lever to move the world, the tool becomes the weakest point, and if your lucky then you only will find yourself laying on the ground asking wtf just happened.

If you like working around the Deuce and cherish your own health, do yourself a favor, spend some extra $$ and buy a quality cordless impact wrench, maybe there are some discounts around, or .... After wrestling with nuts and bolts, and breaking some tools, I finally had the chance to...

A triple tie in first place followed by a triple tie in second place. We should avoid the Supreme Court here. More important, not trying to do politics here, did we already had a female winner for the MV of the Month? Let's break the next ceiling and give the deciding vote to mdmorganwife's...
