You can do a lot better than that on the tires if you bring them across from the US yourself. Wallace Wade or Coker tire will sell you Firestone NDTs for under $100 each. If you can get down to the US to either a UPS store or to a Border parcel service, the shipping from either isn't that terrible.

If you ever made it to a MVPA convention, Wallace Wade brings them by the stack to the convention, and charges his catalog price on them. They were about $80 each just a year or two ago.

Are you sure about that CFR 70-88888? More likely it would have been 70 (or 71) -08888. The M38A1Cdn3 ran from CFR 08500 or thereabouts and ran just across the 09000 numbers.

I see your Jeep used to be fitted with the GPMG mount. There are still a few of these mounts left at the local scrapyard if you feel the need to have a M1919 with you. There are some of the wire cutter bars as well, but they are not economically feasable to ship.
