One of mine moves to Houston

Here's the last picture taken of the Eddie Black restoration just before it left for Houston Texas, where it will be displayed at the military museum there.

M114's are the perfect tracked vehicle!

I have to ask; Perfect compared to what?

 

[wgtactical]

well I can park mine just about anyplace I can park my H1...not many tracks are that small

CVR(T) series, they are faster too, by 20-25 mph.

What's the top end on a CVR (T) series?

Well, they are relatively inexpensive and are light enough where the average person can have them moved to events.

True about moving...the local wrecker company cuts me a really good deal so they can be seen with my machines on their truck. Sometimes they've been known to take the long way around when they are hauling for me. As for inexpensive though...

Nice, I will have to go visit it.

They claim 50+ and I've had mine accelerating past 60 on slight uphill grade, backed out of it because they don't have a rev limiter and figured it was fast enough.

Looks like you need a bigger truck and trailer.

The trucking guy hauls a lot of things for the museum for reduced rates. He was coming back from N.C. empty and swung by here

Thanks Bill, look forward to having you stop by again soon

Exceptionally beautiful work on that one, Gerald. No doubt the finest M-114 anywhere, period.
As a toy, I guess an M-114 is a fine vehicle, but in service, quite dismal.
