    old amusement machines built 1975-85 - neglected wrecks are my personal favourite as half the fun, having found them rotting somewhere and rescued them, is the challenge of bringing them back to life :-\

    a heads up of anything related, even if it's just a piece of glass, would be much appreciated rick.

    i also collect old amusement machines, but 50 s and 60s also jukeboxes and pinballs.....a great shame last year i put all my late stuff. Glass fronts parts etc on ebay for a pittance so that someone would make use of them, would rather given them to you if only i had known !! Oh well thats life !!

    Hi,

    My name is Mats Andersson and I live in the south part of Sweden.

    I work as an engineer with tecnical installations in public buildings, but military vehicles has been my main hobby since aprox 1976. The WW2 US vehicles is my main interest.

    Restored and running vehicles are Dodge WC 63, Diamond T 969, Kaiser M715, Weasel ( not retored, but running in Norwegion army condition).

    Awating restoration: GMC CCKW 352 closed cab, Brockway B666, M3 halftrack.

    Plus the truck that I am working with now; Autocar U-7144.

    I hope to make contact with other Autocar owners on this forum, to gain more knowledge.

     

    Best Regards

     

    PS I hope that you have allowance that I sometimes spell incorrect, or use the wrong words.

    welcome to hmvf, thats an impressive collection of vehicles...had a halftrack many years ago, great fun ! your spelling is fine !!!!

    Hi Tom,

     

    Love how your Tilly is coming together.

    It's hard to find Tilly doors. I think your solution is superb.

     

    I've made the interior of the doors from some "woodboard". It's the kind used between metalsheets.

     

    Do you have the winding mechanism for the windows?

    superb work tom ! trouble is when finished and shown sadly most people will think thats how you bought it.....pity it cant be displayed showing all the effort youve put into it!!!!

    Hello to everyone, I have decided to join HMVF as my husband is either in the garage working on his 3 jeeps or on here with all of you. So as I dont want to join him in the garage except to take out the odd cup of tea I thought I would see what is on HMVF that keeps him on the computer :confused:. Thanks for letting me join, look forward to hearing from some of you. Every good wish Jeepwidow.
