About to execute trip one with 22' box trailer and would want to keep it at less than 8000 pounds. Return trip will be sometime between Saturday earliest or Monday absolute latest departure from Corpus. Trailer is normally used for a race car so it has internal tiedowns that would work for a...
I'm going to Corpus twice. First return trip will be o/a 3 June +/- a day. Second trip will be later in the month and probably departing on the 23rd. I will consider going through Ft Hood if necessary and/but there is a very high potential I will go through Anniston. I might also be going to...
I know COE1954's truck was one of only a few test models for the M923. He also had to perform a total rebuild of it and also had to research and build some of the parts he couldn't find or were only made for the prototype.
No biggie, I've forgotten more about WWII German armor from when I was young than most folks will ever want to know.
I also forgot to say that the Panzer III Ausf N (last version in production) used the 75mm L/24. This was done because the Germans felt the need for a short barreled howitzer...
I think this is a poorly written article. The confusingly switch from panzer lll to lV. The panzer lll began life as the primary t"tank vs tank" design. It had a 37mm which quickly was considered obsolete. It then went to a increasingly longer versions of the 50mm ending in a L60. The...
Absolutely outstanding. The workhorse of the German Panzer forces. Only thing I caught was he said the Panzer IV was armed with a 50mm early in the war. Not true. It was originally armed with a 75mm L/24 cannon. It was upgunned (and up armored) during the war to a 75mm L/40 and eventually...
It's all about route selection. I'm the type of guy that if I have the option of driving through a mud puddle or not driving through a mud puddle, I don't drive through the mud puddle. You want to test the capabilities of your truck, that sounds good but I won't be the one to come get you when...
Just got home, only about an hour run. Big thanks to Scrounger for the ribs....mmmmmmmmm.
Always good to see folks.
Got there about an hour later than I wanted. There seemed to be a lot of people when I rolled in but the crowd vanished within the hour. Came home with most of what I went...

Fat 50 ammo cans
Deuce air assist power steering kits (bringing 2 but have 4 if anyone is interested)
Tools
Canteens....bunch of them $1 a piece, some have caps, some don't.
I have an M100 trailer that I can bring. The tailgate is cut out but only bring if I have...

I think you know...
I will have four USGI official issue Maredyne bolt on power steering kits for the M35A2 (or can be used on the A3 if your original system is inop) $2000 each kit. These are the last four I have.
Will have some very 'special items' that I was going to keep but I'm cashing out of the hobby...
