As we are intending to use the whole site, we are looking for vehicles for both side.
If you would like to bring one, please post here with a picture, if possible.
We will be in contact with a small questionnaire to see how we can incorporate the vehicle into the game....and have a small treat for you.
If I can make the game I will try to bring my Willys jeep with mounted .30 cal and will try to get Tatts to bring his jeep with mounted .50 cal, both guns are working airsoft.
Sorry can't attach better pics
Great!! I will pm later.
So , got 2 other airsoft mates who may bring jeeps, and if I have my M29 weasel by then may bring that too
Here is my M29c weasel, it will be back to original OD and have its original markings by the game
Started flatting back the paint and am looking in to where the M31c hunt pedestal will mount
Have flatted back about 2/5 of the paint now, and have tracked down the original service number when it was issued to the US Army in 1945 and had my mate Paul at Noosta make up a full set of correct size stencils, waiting for the canvas roof from John and Mary at Canvasco.
Have booked my road training and DVLA test in a spartan tank so I will be able to drive on public roads too
Paintwork well underway

Looks great!!!
Unfortunately I won't be bringing my old Russian beast. After 2 years of restoring it and getting it successfully registered and MOT'd, it's back in my garage awaiting a 3rd gear cog to arrive from the Ukraine. That'll keep me busy for a few weekends! Mind you I don't think it would have made it to Kettering. I've had some great hair-raising fun riding it round locally and realised the easiest thing to do with a sidecar rig is to crash it! unless your very careful. Looking forward to seeing the stuff that's turning up hopefully.
I should be OK to bring my Truppenfahrrad:

Looks great Martin! We should have a fair variety of different wheeled vehicles on site it appears!
I keep thinking of getting a vintage bike ,it would be cool to have a whole squad of cycling Germans , pluss i'm quite lazy , hmmm maybe a commanders wheel chair would be good ....
armoury
m1a1 Thompson,sten mk2,mp40,stg44,sterling,mk2 bren gun,lee Enfield no4 mk1,Mauser Kar98, Walther ppk,smith and Weston m10 and Mauser m712
Give me a big enough hammer and a place to stand and I could fix the world.
i'll kill a man in a fair fight or if i think he's going to start a fair fight or over a woman or.......
a problem shared is a problem halved ,but an advantage shared is no advantage at all
if a job's not worth doing then its certainly not worth doing well
I am sure the bike will be fun, but few of the tracks at Close Action are any good for cycling (it isn't a mountain bike!), so I expect I will be pushing it around a lot.
It will be handy to have somewhere to put my sandwiches and spare water and not have to carry them though
Cheers
Martin

I got mine Gav from ebay £100 and I had a real good time getting it in the `Spirit` of German Truppenfahrrad style
Just to confirm I will not be bringing my Weasel as still waiting for a carburettor part, sorry guys
Sad now maybe next time ,hope your not too disappointed to still enjoy the day ,after all props and vehicles are fun but its all about the players having a good time at the end of the day.
