which side of Berlin are you more or less? Now not much time, maybe next time I go to the netherlands through dresden magdeburg I can swing around.

Svenson / Deggingen / Germany , about a third down from the list. Coffeelover29 the system knows, but shows no results on posts, meaning he registered but never posted??? MB2232 , maybe inform patracy, the main web boss, maybe something went wrong with the shift to the new forum software

I am in the Netherlands, and am looking for some parts. Two front axle seals I have, set me back $20 a piece, good price I think. Then I looked up Sindorf Trading again online, to check if they have spare parts. This is a good one to get frustrated on a rainy afternoon. Last time I mentioned...

I was checking the list to find somebody in the North of the Nederlands or Germany who has an old M39 or M809 truck or parts, and ran into a few members mentioned in the list which according the site search do not exist or have not posted anything according the new system. Maybe check up on...

And this is why in the long run ANY form of mobile phone manipulating is going to be forbidden for drivers, and they will rethink what is possible with the online navigation screen also, like blocking it to show movies while you are driving etc. That driver is lucky s/he only raked the side...

:hammer: oeps . Isn't the order family - friends - country or something? She was on the the three I would have voted for in any other year.

Good point. As you can see from the pic now, rear wheels are permanent, front is lock and release. I added the translation in the original post

Is voting still open? Anyway, Ron with the wrecker in action swapping beds. A bit like juggling and finding under which cup is the pea

Translation - Two-Headed Monster DAF means "van Doorne Automobiel Fabriek". Van Doorrne was a genius in designing cars and trailers. He also designed the Variomatic, a fully automatic step-less transmission. As effect of this, the DAF could drive backwards as quick as forwards ... in 1958.

There is one famous DAF family in the Nederlands: De Rooy. Jan de Rooy and his brother establsihed De Rooy Transport using DAFs. He already drove DAF cars in rally's, but switched to trucks in the Paris Dakar rally. Most famous was his double cabin version Not that it could drive both ways...

The DAFs have two very unique and brilliant enginering things, both shown in this pic. The drive train follows an H pattern. In a central differential in the middle of the car, the drive train splits to left and right. Then two distribution boxed split the power to the front and back wheels...

I first thought the difference was between the M1 and the M1A1, but the three I saw in Austria and several on internet show, I think, both models with and without split window.

Quite unexpectedly I am going to the Netherlands with my better half and two grandkids for a few days. Time to also get some stuff for the M51. I was trying to find Van Dam's surplus yard. If you want to drool from a distance, check out this google map showing their yard. They have around...

And something special: the DAF heavy wrecker: 6x6, 33 000 lbs, garwood crane

Going to van Dam Onderdelen early February, for parts of my M51A2. Saw some of my childhood memories and dream wishes there last time I was there. The DAF YA 126 Ambulance. My dream car. Only problem: originally uses the 6 cylinder Hercules gasser, using more than the average 5-ton truck.

Did you find a VIN somewhere on the frame? A VIN mentioned on an attached data shield does not have to be the real original VIN at all.

Ron used to say that jeeps (actually, CUCVs) are only good for wheel clogs for his 5+ ton. Whatever, its human emotions all the way. They drive something big but you drive something gigantic, so they drool all over it. They have to get bigger jeeps because more and more women are driving SVUs...

Nice truck, but I also like the airplane. You're going to restore it like the wrecker?

nopics

My granddaughter would really love that truck just because of its colour. She has a color-match violin to go with it. I don't know the contract number codes, how old is this truck according the date shield you showed?
