    Hi again,
    I still have this problem, the weird thing is that when I’m NOT logged in, I can view all the posts fine, but when I’m logged in, the first post of each thread is missing.?

    I stand to be corrected, but I think the wording on the sheath says US GOVT (a G not a B). United States Government 1942. All military stuff is date stamped.
    So you have a second world war machete, most likely issued to US troops for use in jungle theatres.
    The reason for the made in England, at that time, Sheffield was still a world leader in the manufacture of knife blades.
    Hope that helps.

    Porsche Alligaier also did a powered trailer, the tractor had two PTO’s, the standard 540rpm one and then a different size one to power the trailer.
    There was a restored one in T & M a year or so ago.

    I’m not familiar with this particular brand of winch, but for that price, I would be dubious about a) how long the motor will last, and b) how well it’ll stand up to being exposed to the elements on a flat bed truck (I stand to be corrected if anyone has one).
    Depending how much you’re planning to use it, I would either spend a bit more money on a known brand with good parts back-up, or if it’s only for occasional use, maybe just get a hand winch.

    Not too sure about the V8 F20, nicely done, just not my cup of tea! Nice line up of JD’s, especially the original ones.
    Thanks for sharing,
    Joe.
