Default the HUW is still around

Hi Haridimos,

The military vehicles in Iron Eagle IV are owned by the Ontario Regiment Museum ("the Ferret Club") in Oshawa. Most of the shots shown were taken in and around the Museum located on the South Field of Oshawa Airport.

The HUW (serial # 2844515234, built Aug 14, 1942) is still in the collection but currently is in storage. When I last saw it, it looked a lot like it did in the picture from the movie although it now has an engine installed and will move on its own. It is usually on display for the OMVA annual shows, sometimes with a 19 set installed.

Brian

Default HUPs and other CMPs

Some interesting shots here: http://flickeflu.com/groups/1663433@N23

Some we have seen before. Some of the trucks belong to some of us.

Quite the variety (includes fine scale models). Most enjoyable CMP peep show. A local (Ottawa) celebrity can be found in one of the photos.

For those who have not yet visited Keith's website ( http://www.oldcmp.net ), you should. I came across some genuine gems
( http://www.oldcmp.net/austhups_1.html ) Note the lack of substantial rust - very strange indeed...

This world wide community of rusty truckers is amazing.

I just purchased Theo's books, both No.1 and No.2 and the photos are really great. Both books are certainly the sort you all should have in your library.

Thanks Theo.
Regards Rick.
