  2. Hi and welcome, lived in Dodesheid for 5 years as a teenager, in those days you could still find the odd german gas mask cannister`s and uniform bits dumped in the woods by the cemetary Not to mention cycling around with black painted dug up helmets on our heads :shake: Chuss Ashley
  3. Hi and welcome, always pleased to see another jeep jockey :-D (creme Dela creme) :cool2:. Sorry to hear of your problems but when the sunshines it Will be forgotten....briefly. Ashley

  6. My good lady always fancied a convertable car, she was not too sure when the jeep arrived, but as it was funded by my own means (we hadn`t been married long)she had very little say in the matter :-D but it keeps me off the streets so`s to speak and to poor to go into pubs. Ashley

    RC tank

    Looks nice...........but being Panzer grey it is obvious a pre 1943 model (be for the colors changed to ordnance tan)..........but the commander appears to be wearing a patt `44 grey panzer wrap over tunic, just an observation:-D:whistle::whistle::readbook: Ashley
  8. Try a company called "Kooble car" (US based) as they sell the bodies as well as other part. The body should fit on a more recent chassis. Ashley
  9. If you`ve the monies, .......... go for a german schwimmvagen and tell her it saves buying a boat as well :-D Ashley
  10. From what i remember this was not a very large base but kept at least 6 rockets fully armed and ready to fire in minutes. At the time 1971-72 i thought it was strange to have US troops in the British zone, but by then we probaly had no rockets. Ashley
  11. Hi woa2, can a precise or approx date for this photo be ascertained ?? cheers Ashley
  12. Hi all, long shot here... in the early seventies i remember visiting an American rocket base near Osnabruck in Germany it could not have been more than 1-1 1/2 hrs by the old Bedford bus (utility). Hoping ex serving members of the forces may know of location the old base as i doubt if it exist now, probably a housing estate. cheers Ashley
  13. Aye enough to make yer custard creams go soggy at 20 paces Ashley
  14. I can remember when the Karrier was first restored must have been 25 + years ago it was a superb truck. I did drive up one day in the jeep and as he was by the fence line i stopped and said hello but he just turned and walked away :rolleyes: must of been something i said This is the second militant that has been on site in the last ten years the last one sat in the field for 6 yrs then suddenly was replaced with the one in the picture. Neil i don't think any thing is for sale pity. Ashley
  15. Hi all, i keep meaning to take these pictures and have finally done so.... the militant (red one )has been here for at least a couple of years and along with the jeeps next to it has not moved. The shots of the (Karrier) truck, now this vehicle to my knowledge has not left the field but has been moved around it.It was once complete with canvas but this has since been removed befor finally rotting away. Enjoy
