No, the frame in the foreground of a few of the pics is the one I am putting together. It was a 1968 forestry truck 406 model that I found in Canada about 10 years ago. I took every nut and bolt apart and refinished each piece. I am in the process of putting everything together. The motor and tranny in front of the MAN 8x8 are rebuilt but I have to fabricate a stand heavy enough before painting. The Blue 419 was a US army truck that was let go when the Berlin wall came down. It has a CASE hoe on the back and a Schmidt loader up front. It was one of several surplussed when the US presence in Germany was reduced. The person thaat had it in germany used it for his towing business and painted it blue. Eventually we'll get it bact to the original colors. The UK-52 is - well unusual. It has hydraulic steering and an articulating joint in the center like a steiger tractor.
