I know I am getting old and have CRS but it seems to me that years ago we had this same ground issue with customers vehicles. Our fix at that time was to make up a short wire with eyes crimped on the ends and attach it from one side of the rag joint to the other. Keep it as short as possible so...
Great tip on the seat belt material Rick. I have the tank out of my Allis Chalmers and have been looking around the shop for something to fit between the straps and the tank. I never thought to go out in the yard and get a seat belt. Thanks for that.
Cheers,

My daughter went to school in North Bay and then lived there for a while so I knew of the underground complex but didn't realize it was that extensive. How deep does it go? I remember it was a major NORAD base for the USAF and the RCAF and it was going to be the first target for the Soviet...
Rob, I can understand your hesitation about travelling alone but with all the vehicles going to War and Peace on the ferry could you not find someone to tag along with? The times I went to War and Peace from The Netherlands I couldn't believe all the migrants living in the bushes outside the...

Thanks for the...
What have I got? M1010 Variant?
I recently made the eight hour trip to PA to purchase a few treasures from Rick (CUCVRUS). Great guy and good guy to deal with by the way. While there I added to my list the brackets that held the crosses on the side as well as the brackets for the caduceus. My...
As a shop owner I would like to point out that an estimate is just that. An estimate!! Now if that was my shop I would be embarrassed to be that far
out on an estimate and I certainly wouldn't proceed with the job without discussing the matter with the customer. As for putting the head on and...
