Hello Joćo and welcome to MLU!

Looking forward to hear more about your group and see pictures of the vehicles.

No need to say sorry for for your English, it is perfectly understandable.
In fact, do you know what is the true international language for historic military vehicle collectors?
Well, it is "bad English" :D

Regards,
Hanno

Your enthusiasm for the hobby is clear. No need to apologize.

English is a funny language. This forum has members from all around the world, Canada, UK, New Zealand and Australia in particular. We often find no one is using the same words for the same meaning. Sometimes we spell words differently, like tyre and tire, and the tools change names depending on the country. Don't worry.

If you have trouble, someone here will probably respond in Portuguese and find the answers.
