    T-34-85 price and availability?

    I agree with Augdog, the T-34/85 drivers position is much more cramped than our Type 69 (Chinese T54). Decent T34's are a 100k and remember parts and pieces have to come from Eastern Europe, and each load of parts comes with inevitable ATF paperwork. You really want a T-34/85 then convince Aug...

    Have you thought about going the State route and seeing if there are any vehicles available from the Guard in you area? Everything I have heard is it is so much easier than Feds

    how to soundproof the humvee

    Checking the DB Engineering website they appear to be the OEM manufacturer of the soundproof insulation that came on the hmmwv. Looks just like the pieces everyone buys off ebay for ridiculous prices John

    Removing the bar behind the front seats

    Mine was gone when I bought mine, I have since added a slantback setup and supplemental armor doors. The bearing support and associated tubes tie everything together solid so don't worry about needing it if you end up going hardtop or armor route...I was able to move the drivers seat back about...

    Value of an xm211/ect

    Alas the venerable M series GMC has never reflected its large following with a commensurate increase in value. Which is a shame because they are incredible vehicles with an almost cult status among fans. I am lucky enough to have 5 of the beasts and would find it difficult to part with them for...

    taboo to talk

    In so many ways it is great to be a Canadian...my HMMWV took 20 min to register and insure...just like my 931, M813 and M211's...I feel for you guys

    taboo to talk

    So what happens when you take a vehicle specified for off road use only, and you agree in the end user agreement it is for off road use only, and you find a way to get an on road title...and then you get in an accident? Will your insurance company cover you when they discover you did exactly...

    Ballistic Glass Turret for MWRAP

    Yes sir I do have a tank in my yard, several in fact. I do not begrudge the police anywhere their safety. I apologize, wasn't trying to belittle your hometown or it's police force.

    True enough Matt...almost seems like that is the type of buyer they are marketing toward

    M10 tank out of control over a bank

    If someone willing to spend that kind of money can't tell that mess from a real M10 I think they deserve what they get. I think any pre- purchase vetting would begin with the serial number to verify it is in fact a genuine M10....of course this vehicle doesn't have one. So that should end any...

    Bullet proof windshield

    Retired War Horse and Action can you elaborate on what us needed to convert a hmmwv to the Ibistek windshields like the one for sale at Eastern Surplus. This is something I am seriously considering so any info would be appreciated

    M5 repower

    You would have to completely butcher the M5 to put in the cummins or anything other than a v8. No cummins 6 is going to fit under the bulkhead between the fighting compartment and engine bay. Willie has done a great job using a power plant that fits. And believe me it will have no problem moving...
