  3. Going by today's crooks the one who pulled the knife would claim he was innocent and that he was attacked ! or protest that excessive force was used on him and sue for his injuries .
  4. I think The Raiders truck was a GMC chassis re-bodied to look like a German Mercedes Benz here the link and some opinions of what it was as where it is now . http://www.imcdb.org/vehicle_772-Made-for-Movie-Mercedes-Benz-LG3000.html

    Originality

    Perhaps We need a thread for all the modified military vehicles of their own . While it would be nice if everyone kept they entire vehicle all original We have all seen examples of people doing modifications of different degrees to "Their" vehicles. One point of all the discussions has been as long as the result is not past along as being an in service example of X , or there will be others who think they have a better idea of how the vehicle should be used/changed there isnt anything We can do about it . We need to face the fact that some models of former military vehicles are quite common in some areas so the price they sell at is affordable enough it temps people to buy one and experiment. Just a thought to either include these in their own thread or ban them.
  8. Has it been a year again ALREADY !!! Thank You for the Kind reminders . At what age does one go from years old to years young??? Have a Good Day to All over there and around the Globe .
  9. Seems I will have a lot to read and learn about , I just hope there wont be a test on the lot too soon. Thank you for taking pity on Us none natives.
  10. Thanks for the photo.I see now.
  11. Niced bit of creative engineering.
  12. We would have a better idea if you were to post a photo of same ?
  13. Quite a lot of information , good that you posted the link .
  14. Very nice, there must be very few originals left in the world?
  15. If the vehicle is equipped with this unit , if need be or not , if stopped for some traffic violation would it be something the officer could request the driver to hand over view to see if a violation had indeed happened ? In Britain can they then look at all the data on the disk for other incidents Not that I speed normally but the thought was/ is why give them any more information past the speed camera or speed gun they already have.
  16. H1HU Never too many details to get us all up to speed on hows its done , thank you for the information
  17. There's one simular to this on the other side of my town . no brick work but other wise the same . many of the homes in my area are built with two or three car garages but saddly they tend to have only 7 or 8 foot doors,not the 14 foot on that great RV garage .
  18. photo's and local knowledge are always welcomed
  19. Thanks antarmike for the details on the shifting and operation of the Matador . Still would like to see it on video run down the road from the inside and out .
  20. Ford Mustang 1967? or about then
  21. aye that may be true as the people back then perhaps were smaller. Can someone post a video of getting in and driving a Matador?
  22. Seems from the driving position that they must have been built for drivers with a left leg amputation above the knee, even if the shift pattern is strictly in a motion front to back only that lever and knob have to be uncomfortable even for short periods of time. Is the engine free or has it seized ? it would look to be a good investment except for the driving position.
