Great 1st Place General McGregor. And to all the other contestants, Bottoms Up!!

Also check you transfer case and make sure it's in high gear. The handle all the way up.

My favorite B-17, "the Swoose" under restoration.

I understand the Swoose was parked at Andrews AFB for a long period of time, and vandals had pretty much picked her clean. That's the main reason they moved her to the Smithsonian, and now to the NMUSAF.

Wolfgang, the WD-40 just freshens up your faded paint job for a couple months. There are a couple threads on WD-40 paint rehab in the archives.

Plowboy. Looks like your having fun, maybe to much fun. All my favorite stuff, Military vehicles, Planes, Trains and what not. The Wife and I hope to make it to the Peg this season for a Jets game, and then we'll take in Portage & Main street.

Nice truck, and looks like you got a good deal. Wish it was in my driveway.

Hopefully It moved under it's own power. The M51 is a 5 ton truck, so take some pictures and post them, and I'm sure folks will be glad to help.

Mike, there's a guy at Knights Landing Calif. who sells halftracks in this condition on e-bay. He's got several. Do you know him??

Mike, I'll be Praying that You and the rest of Texas get through this storm OK!

I couldn't find any photos of the present Liberty Bell restoration. These are some photos of the accident and fire.

Tom, I have a correction. I checked Wikipedia. There are 2 flyable B-17s in Europe, and 9 in the US. There are also more than a dozen around the world that are in various stages of restoration, for static display, and to fly.

The Memphis Belle in 2008, with another famous B-17 The Swoose. Both aircraft are undergoing restoration at the National Museum of the Air Force. The B-17 storage yard at Kingman Arizona 1947. When you look at the hundreds of B-17s in this photo, it's hard to believe there are just 13 left, and...

Steely, If you can find that photo. That's one we'd all like to see.:jumpin:

Seth, Major Asstyrd has a thread on the Tower Park gathering. It's Sept. 18-24 at Tower Park. Also check the MVCC website for more info. Most sellers will show up on Thursday the 21st.

Thanks Toby, I'll remember that. I don't want to repaint again for awhile. The drop sides on my bed need some attention due to load shifting dents. I would like to remove them for painting and repair, along with turn signals, warning lights, air cleaner etc. etc.. Then a good sanding and...

Ya 500 best make a decision, or Papabears gonna come git ya. :papabear:

Depending on the weather, I get about a month to a month and a half. Hot, and or rainy weather will wash or burn off the WD-40 quicker. I got most of the bed done today, and hope to finish it tomorrow. Usually it takes a couple hours to do the complete truck, but lately the weather has been...

Valence, I have a CDL, so I don't remember all the requirements of the State of California. I think, it's a combination of vehicle weight, and the type of brakes, air or hydraulic. I have several friends in California who drive their Deuces with a regular drivers license. Maybe some of our...
