Here is the second batch of pics I made. Some very interesting pieces like a Brockway 666 and a Diamond T with a Rodgers trailer and an International blade. Enjoy !

Phil,
they are great as well as the previous days pics! Have you got any more photos with the Firefly? Is that a real Mk Vc? Is the MP Jeep yours?

Hello Wieslaw,

No more pics from the Firefly unfortunately. But yes, it's a real Mk Vc. The owner is coming from Holland.

Well, the Jeep was mine a couple of years ago and is now my friend's property. I had great time and lot of fun with it. I am seriously thinking of jumping again in the reenactment world and get another US uni to do MP again :wink:

Take care my friend.

Thanks for the photos. Iliked the loaded down halftrack pulling the loaded down trailer. The M4 105mm howitzer Sherman was unusual and interesting to see.

Glad you like them :D

The 105 howitzer is owned by a Belgian and is a realy great tank. As you say it's unusual and it's a pitty so few people enjoy it. For many, it's just a tank. Unfortunately, Spit Oil had to be towed later that day due to a fuel pump failure.
