Aaron Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 Hello, I just joined the forum and it looks like a great resource. The main vehicle my Dad and I are restoring is an FV 433 Abbot. It needs a thorough cleaning inside and a few odds and ends. We also have an M108 2 1/2 ton crane truck and an M151. Over the years we've had a Saracen Mk 1, M114 Armored Command and Reconnaissance Vehicles, M75 APC, M43 Ambulance, M35A2 2 1/2 tons, M211 2 1/2 ton, M54 5 tons, M813A1 5 ton, M38A1 1/4 tons, an M28 Weasel.

malyutkaman Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 Hey Aaron, Thought you already were a member of the forum. How's the Abbot comming along, been in any parades lately? I've been so busy with work I haven't had the Fox or Ferret out on almost four years now:cry: (I should be shot). Hopefully this year will be different and will see ya at some events.

Aaron Posted May 20, 2010 Author Share Posted May 20, 2010 Hi Rich, Yeah, despite spending 95% of our time on the transport end of things (getting old civilian semi tractors going and then finding a better one) we manage to have to Abbot out to a few events per year. Hoping to make it to Olympia and definitely Arlington. Probably also the WAC show and Veterans day. I've got the turret almost entirely gutted and I'm looking for the tan fabric so we can start putting it back together. It'll be great to see the Fox out and about.
