    M16 Halftrack joins the family

    Update 9-23-18 Got her home and started removing all the piping and crap. Got a bunch of stuff cut off and the tank removed. Believe it or not but I just scored another halftrack last week. It was caught in a brush fire and had parts robbed off. The good news is that it has many of the...
