  1. Best wishes! Have a great day! Hope you would dressed all white today with a big hat !!!
  2. On a side note - what's the army truck's rear end at the left of the picture? And the second note - I'm looking for the light reflectors as on it's board.
  3. 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.
  4. Bikes are good also but I damn like Leversole's B! It looks well tight built.
  5. The middle truck was KrAZ-255 6x6 with V8 naturally asp.diesel. One of my loveliest trucks. KrAZ is the further developement of YaAZ trucks those were basically made as Mack NR of WW2. 6x6 KrAZ has overall width of 2.80 meter so doesn't come in road limit 2.50 (as in Europe) so there're troubles of registration for road use last years. There was a unit for sell for a cheap this last spring with a big mech shovel. I though about but stopped myself from one more project.
  6. 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.
  7. Read all with interest, thank you for posting. Also going to work on wiring in the future so links above will be useful. I hope. Will try on cloth covered wires for my 1945 project.
  8. Maybe she's just his mother... Thank you for pics.
  9. He looks glad about the wheel. Next step must be any toy!
  10. Agree with all above. Moonfire was probably not translated into Russian. Will try to find it in the net.
  11. Ha-ha, now I can sleep really easy. My R's were not exported from the States, they're from Canada!
  12. Going to test that "black slag". It makes lower dust as people said me although looks expensive. My unit spend about 150 liters of sand in 30 minutes. With good results though.
  13. I wish good luck to everybody who plan to keep that company and hope the price doesn't go high. But not shure. It has some dents etc of course but makes attractive impression. If I be in hudred miles from the point I'd need plenty of power to stop myself from going there.
  14. I was critical to Hatcity about that pic until looked over vip longue. Vinny - look better Classic Mack general discussion instead of it and keep your interest for real girls!
  15. Oh hell, I see I missed the party. Best wishes man! Have a great time, keep the progress about your off-set project! And don't be involved into threedectofobia
  16. 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.
  17. 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.
