Congratulations!

Sounds like a bad-luck truck or was it your plan to restore a MV?

This is going quite fast! How long do you recon you have work to do on the clubmobile?

My primary interest is in WWII and to have a WWII vehicle is something I wanted for the past few years. It did open a whole new world for me, I knew nothing about cars before I bought my Dodge and I've learned quite a lot in the past 2 months.

Funny how these things turn up!

There are mods around which prevent this, or you can turn on a verification system. Good luck banning the spammers.

Hi OPS officer, welcome!

I found this blowup at the WW2 dodge forum (posted today, talk about coincidence!!):

I know and I'm very proud of what they did!

To quote Madman,

"Nothing fancy in my family. My grandma and granddad hid a jew during the war and that's it. "

 

 

Well I reckon thats a great understatement , that was an enormous undertaking, easily on a par with others daring deeds.

We do owe them a great deal.

Well yeah but it doesn't sound as imaginative as actually being in the war as a soldier.

Nothing fancy in my family. My grandma and granddad hid a jew during the war and that's it.

@ArtistsRifles, was he tranferred to 1st Airborne during Market Garden? The 6th was not involved in the operation.

Must be great to have so much space for vehicles....

Wow, must be cool to have a T34 in your back yard!

Hi Mick, I find him very helpfull, Ive bought alot of stuff from him over the years (including the Quad Polsten), and he just has guns and every imagnable item lying all around his farm.

 

Tyler.

Does he have a website or a catalog? I'm not looking for something specific, just browsing.

Impressive vehicle!

And a merry Christmas to you too!

Wow, you are doing a great job, keep em comming!

Well my g/f tolerates it now, I would not call it love (not by a long shot)

Well I bought a Dodge WC51 in November which was both a high and a low. A high because I bought a Dodge and a low because me g/f almost left me because of it....

Indeed so it will take quite a while before we can see it..

A nice movie clip featuring a WWII LVT-4 Water Buffalo whjch was used in the movie Flags of our Fathers.
