  1. Nice looking "Unimogs", especially the second one. There were many of them in existance overhere. There was a lot imported into the Soviet Union by olimpic games of 1980. They were of the series as on the pics. A guy living near me has one. He made me a ride around the nearest forest, it was incredable. He wanted to sell it once for reasonable although I stopped myself again. It was hard to do because I'm all on Mercedes excepting Macks. Pair of shots from the off-road fest I took part a couple of years ago.

  2. Thank you, all that looks funny (to me).

    Most comments conteins of "let's go" (davay', davay') in the beginning and the bunch of "f***'s" continueing.

    The words "you tore the shit out of the frame" were really in there but a little later, about KrAZ front tow hook.

    On the minute 2.00 the guy asked the driver about towing his Scania right after that.

    And the last comment was "look at, the trailer is Ok!".

    57BCR, you don't need to disturb Superdog, that Renault is not the one with E9 but a small other. They are also avalible in Australia by the name of Quantum.

  3. I understand your pain guys, but there are some reasonable moment as usually in the reality is.

    If we talk about trucks for a work, it was noted above most people prefere them new.

    If we talk about rare/antique - vehicle comes to be rare when not many still in existance.

    So nobody need any common thing/truck untill there are lots of around.

    As for people who like old iron and enjoy to have it and look over - try to get as much as you can and can to care about.

    Everything you can not is the faith and not a hard reason to sorry much.

  4. I use alot of sand blast.

    There's a guy with a little crew who provide it not far from me.

    I started with him for $100 per hour of work.

    It looked too high, also needed to move big parts to him for about 10 km and more problemmly to move cleaned parts to painting guy.

    One day during the blasting rain started. The work vent under roof although when I observed the parts next day I had to back them reblast.

    The end was I realized to buy everything my own and built a shed for.

    Got used diesel compressor for a half of a new value, sand tank, hoses, jet, protection clothes and a halmet.

    Because I started to work in winter so had to buy dry sand. About 2 tons.

    Noted that for one working hour I spent 2 hours of 2 guys' job.

    The neighborhood is out of happyness also.

    Of course I have less troubles at all but to my surprize I have no lust to blast for anybody else for those $100/hour.

    Less dust is the way.
