My beloved YouTube

[r.morrison]

Checked out the video, nicely done. The only thing is, I know Phil Waterman as upstanding and a Teddy Bear of a guy......but literally! I have to rethink this. Robert

[Phil Waterman]

Hi Guys

Yes, the guy who posted that video has also posted a number of other videos of the Weare Summer Rally. Couple of years ago he came to the Rally with his Ural motorcycle and got hooked on MVs, now he has got and M35.

As to the Bear guess I'll have to post the video of the bear waving in parades, a real crowd pleaser.

But here is another video by the same guy- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XWkK_r7AsK8 you can watch the whole thing or jump in to the 3:08 minute point my HUB running through a shallow puddle then watch. Don't quite get the sound track.



Cheers Phil

Phil,

The HUP certainly is the "odd-duck" among that crowd. I'll bet it gets its fair share of attention.

Cheers!

Very badly thought out

[Phil Waterman]

Hi Scott

I really like the hauler and the rollback unit, being able to the platform down flat on the ground just makes so much sense.

That they had the fire extinguisher right out to hand is impressive planning, these guys knew what could happen. Going to put a link to this in our MV Club Newsletter with a picture entitled Thinking Ahead.

The running it around on the moto-cross track was good. Does anybody know off hand the earlier post that had lots of links to the same track location and the event held there?

Cheers Phil

The Dutch Cavalry units have turned in their Leopard tanks and have reverted to horses - it takes some time to get accustomed to riding horseback again

There's one from inside an Otter which is interesting.

I'm flattered Keith. As a professional film maker you have probably noticed the sound doesn't always match the imagery....

I can waste many hours watching this stuff..so full of optimism, drive, ambition, .......and a surprising lack of high paid help and politicians...

can you imagine a Captain running this show?

British Pathe films have being uploaded to YouTube. For example if you search for "British Pathe 1944" you will find a lot of interesting films like the following.

There are some Kangaroos at about the 4:22 and 5:30 mark of this film.

Hi Scott

Always enjoy videos of people showing off their prized vehicles. Like the starting bit of driving over the camera. But all I could think of if I tried this with any of my trucks they would decide to dribble oil on the camera lenses.

Cheers Phil

I did notice at 9.06 (clip No2) a NSW historic registered Dodge in US Navy livery, and sitting next to it (left of Navy Dodge) is a vehicle that I recognize from our part of the world Hunter Valley NSW, some really nice vehicles in attendance, I've also looked at google earth at some of the locations, cheers Dennis

Hi Darrell

Good video, now we know why they have been taking the engines out of military vehicles for displays.

I would really like to know how long this thing had been sitting? That it started is one that it moved under its own power and was able to steer is amazing.

Can see a plot for a movie in this, tunneling to the belly escape hatch, bring in batteries and fuel. Then what?

Cheers Phil

Hi All

Another video search goes sideways, here is one talking about Jeep history and what shows up 21 seconds in you guessed a CMP.

Just watched the rest, sort an interesting segway into ad for local garage.

Hi All

Can not remember if this video has shown up before

https://youtu.be/7KJKB7UmcPk

Un-credited color film taken in Canada during WWII. Was following Rob Dekker's post about the promo for the Maritime Military Heritage Collectors meet and this came up as a suggested video.

Cheers Phil

Hi All

Just stumbled across this online review of Mirror Model CMP F15A

https://youtu.be/GOGWayRm0go

Interesting description of the history and origins of CMPS only problem is he does not show the assembled model.

Here is the link to the Mirror Model Web site http://www.mirror-models.com/

When I run out of stuff to do out in the shop maybe I'll have to look at doing some of the CMP models. After all that's how I got into military vehicle hobby as a child.

Cheers Phil

I got this kit along with the IBG kit of the Chevrolet C60S Petrol Tanker. I have being working on the two of them on and off for the past two weeks. The IBG tanker comes with both 12 and 13 cabs; however, photos show that this type of tanker should have an 11 cab. Also IBG’s 12 cab comes with square Ford style vents. So I swapped the cabs from the two kits and added the round vents to the 11 cab to turn it into a Chevy.

Hi

This You-Tuber seems bent on putting vile things in his body! The 1945 RCN Lifeboat Ration would be enough to put me off!!

There's another fellow from NZ eating the yummy German EPA III and others more modern rats too:

He even takes a crack at some of the newer IMPs.

My back is sore just watching that video.



I have one of those 7.5 ton trailers, but seeing the crew of 4 is required to operate it, I think mine will remain unrestored.

I know pommy soldiers are slow but this training film is made for mental defectives.
