But inbetween there should be time for some fun too! :D

For example as for a visit of the Patton Memorial and Museum at Ettelbruck, Luxemburg.
- Liberated by Patton and his 3. Army in December 1944.

Hello Folk's,

after a CMS and WordPress training I found now a new job and used in addition the chance to design a new private Weapon Carrier homepage. :mrgreen:
This new site will have "more or less" the same content as my old one, but a fresh look, a new menue, some new functions - and informations (hopefully) will be easier found than before. :thumbup:

So here is a preview:

Image

Actually you will find the old design that is from about 2012 until further notice.
Link: http://www.steel-toys.com

I will post an info, as soon as the new site is online.

Keep 'em Rolling,

Joakim

Visit with my WW2 Dodge at General Patton's former 15. U.S. Army HQ at Bad Nauheim, Germany on last Sunday.
The building is the former Grand Hotel. The place of General Pattons last birthday dinner:

And another stop-over at the "German Graceland": The house at Bad Nauheim that Elvis Presley had rented for his family during his time with the 3AD at Friedberg, Germany.

Some changes in my garage: the flat top trailer has been sold because of legal issues after the repair in Belgium (the 2 new axles did not match with the track width of the third original axle)... :roll: - So it would not have passed the next inspection by our authorities. = The exchange of the 3rd axle would have been necessary... :thumbdown:
Okay - "gone and forgotten" and here is the new winter project to keep me busy:
