Maybe we should make the MV of the Month - Year votes into a sticky at the top of the what's new list; that would ensure more votes for sure. Now, its getting snowed under too quick. I was not online for some time, just got a PM about the calendar 2022 and then remembered I had to vote. Does not...
After posting, I wanted to vote

Its not even midnight here in Europe, but the pole is closed already

Would not have made a difference, but in your mind, think its there

Just in time saw the thread. Both the MV-Camper and the Goat are very impressive and very welll restored. Difficult to choose but ....
Making your transport self-supporting is fascinating and challenging, and my late brother loved those kind of gigs. He did it with cars and with his over 100...
That's my big regret of not having been in the service; never got the opportunity to drive tanks or very big rigs through the sand.

So its rather a unique vehicle. S5trange that the company or the army did not keep it as historic testing prototype
Interesting sound of that engine, not as loud or low as I would expect.

Dear European Members of Steel Soldiers
I would like to ask you for help for our non-profit, as I explain in the main thread about this in the CONVERSATION section.
As some of you might know, in daily life I am Founder-Director of a Czech non-profit for regional development and heritage...

Maybe some European thinking, but would it not be cheaper to put it on a train?
Also, where is the truck on the east coast. Since you are in Seattle, hopping it across the Canadian border and then shipping it by truck or by train might be cheaper. I do remember seeing al those flatbed trains...
I have family there. One cousin lives in New Smyrna Beach, the other cousin somewhere close to Daytona Beach. A good friend in the Tampa area, but I think she recently moved a bit more inland and more northerly. So I am watching this from far away, but it sure looks scary.
Stay save all of you...
After some searching, finally found this tread. This year definitely not, next year is hopefully possible.
Cannot we get a group together to restore that abandoned train? Looks like the "rails to trails" already happened, but if we do some nice work, we could make the wagons into something...
I went looking for what a Sterling with chain drive actually is and came across a very nice thread with lots of pics including that of the chain drive. Amazing.
Her is the link with some pics made by the then new owner ;) ;) :)
Jeff, did it ever had a military history? If so, you could put...
