I remember that article in PS, it mentioned shipping at around $1000 back then. That's when I first got interested in military vehicles.:roll: I also remember getting a brochure for bidding on a "land train" located in South America.:drool:
Most of the hydraulic oils like Case TCH just have higher levels of anti-foam agents for the torque converters. Shouldn't hurt a thing.:beer:Good score!
While my sons were going to Rolla I spent quite a lot of time trying to catch up with Dean. The only response I ever go was a flyer for a GOER he sent to me after I left a message with my information on his door.
I sure would like to find out where this other place is before it all winds up...
