I would suggest that this thread be reserved for ARMOR FORENSIC discussion, and the other be...
As you know, I am an enthusiastic ambassador for the MV hobby. One question begs to be answered here....
Will we be welcoming Mr. Unser into our hobby anytime soon?
Why not, Arnold has a tank!
Carry on.
OK....
After I got home, I stepped outside, opened the door on our Deuce - The ARK - and, while standing on the ground (NOTE: Clutch ENGAGED with Transmission and Transer Case in NEUTRAL, AND NO pressure on the "Gas Pedal") here's exactly what I recorded.....

Our Deuce was formerly a brushfire truck that we purchased from the VFD/County that owned it. On our very first visit to the truck, after doing a pre-start walk around and such, I pressed the start button and it was like starting an electric motor... I never really heard her "crank", she just...
"Come over to the Green Side of the Force, Luke."
Yes, this is how the bonds of the Green Iron Addiction are formed and reinforced. Friendships are forged stronger than family ties. Fellowship in this fraternity is forever.
It is my privilege to be associated with these fine men and women...
It's a DEAL !
Actually, the only snakes I do kill are the known poisonous threats. The last time any were killed "on my watch" was back when we picked up our deuce bed when we bought it. It was on the ground in a goat pen and three rattlers met their fate when it was lifted by the forklift we...
True. But, only up to a point.
The B-2 employs computer control to an extent beyond human pilot performance which creates in it a level of operability that makes it a practical airborne platform for its mission. ALL earlier seemingly similar designs were never put into large scale...
Beautiful.
Looks like a stingray when she does that graceful roll to the left near the end of the video.
I'm thinking some equally graceful background music would earn it an Academy Award.
WOW.
Have you checked out the MEMBER MAP (see BUTTON in every SS Webpage Header).
As you locate your Canadian brothers, encourage them to droop a pin on the map showing their locations.
Welcome!
Carry on.
DONUTS in a Piper Cub
This isn't exactly low flying, but it is surely a STUNT !

Carry on.
The SS Member Map shows several in the DFW area.
The Member Map can be accessed through the BUTTON in the SS Header/Banner at the top of every SS webpage.
If you haven't already, go ahead and add your own location to the Map while you're there.
One must be very careful when cracking one's nuts in a vise or by any other method for that matter. Crack ONLY the shell and NOT the tender parts inside.
:shock::shock:
After all, it is within those little kernels wherein lies the seed of life itself.
By the way..... NICE VISE...
Preserving history through the ownership, maintenance and operation of vehicles whose service can be ascertained is one of my favorite aspects of this hobby.
Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for keeping history alive.
Me thinks there is more than one way to skin a cat.
(But that's a rather SICK THOUGHT best reserved for around an SS Rally Campfire.)
This ACE AND A HALF is built on a motorhome frame. Scabbing a Van Cutaway Cab onto a Deuce frame would be an entirely more complicated matter. Me thinks...
