Doesn't look like rust is too much of a problem in the cold climes you have up north. I see a few have peeling paint problems, but that's nowhere near as bad as cancer.

Nice trucks, thanks for sharing the pics!

Well, cold and cold... In summer we have +25 C, and winter -15-25 C. Cars do rust here. Russian trucks often just stey on carages, so they dont rust.

Welcome to the site.
Great pictures, thanks for sharing them. It's also interesting to see different camo patterns than those we're used to.

Last autum I trade four Sisu tires to "Ural-nose". Two guys had cut it, and they made a farm tractor trailer on it. This is usuall in finland.

I pull the engine off, and sold it away. V8 did run smoodly, I test it.

I take these pictures to mobile phone.

Finlandia,
Thanks for posting all those pictures and explanations of what they are about. Very interesting to see and hear about different vehicles.

Sometimes in army sales, there is a Tatra tyres, Barum 15.00-21. But finland is bit far away to you. 21 inch tyres are rare other than eastern block coutries.

I havnt found tires 15x21 size in the usa. Im trying to find a country I can find them? any ideas?

Not really. Maybe ebay, mobile.de, or other russian/european site. Finnish army change 14.00-20 tyres and wheels to "rocket-tatras".
