Went to the surplus store

[4.3LXJ]

Went to the surplus store to look for hardware for HUMWEE Jr. Normally all you get to see is just some fatigues and stuff like that. But this one has goodies.

The wife actually wanted to buy this one. She figured if she drove this no one would give her any attitude.:eek: That is a 90 mm gun on that turret.

They wouldn't sell me that half track or the tank, so I settled for information on Mighty Mites. They had all the original military books on them. We are piecing together a top for it.

Those are some cool pictures. You ought to give the location for that store in case others want to go by and see. XJ4IV is out in your area visiting parents for example.

Surplus City is just south of Oroville, CA on Hwy 70. Visible from the highway, it is hard to miss. They have a cool M37 with a 30 cal machine gun mounted on it outside right now.

The little wheeled "tank" is called a Ferret made by Daimler.

There is also a weasel back by the parts counter that is just full of cool old Jeep parts. Couldn't get a good pic though. It also has the rubber cleats so it can be driven in the street.

You got HTML turned on?

I could see them yesterday but PB took them away for today's viewing.

I got something about bandwidth exceeded...no pics, but had them yesterday.

[4.3LXJ]

I can see them all now. How about the rest of you?

[bluedragon436]

Nope... I'm still getting the bandwith exceeded message... but can view all of my pics from photobucket just fine...

I believe the bandwidth exceeded message is user dependent. In other words if XJ4IV has lots of pictures being displayed they all add up to count against how much bandwidth that user is using. Once exceeded they stop showing XJ4IV. That goes for anyone using Photobucket. It happens to BlueXJ from time to time.

hmmm I NOW have 4 photobucket accounts but one is for work but other than that I have three of my personal ones

Looks like I will be establishing another account for HUMWEE. It has been very popular on other forums and used up all my band width. Sunday I will upload and edit.
