I know Ben he is a nice guy...a little wacked but aren't all MV owners. He use to own a M151A1 drove the heck out of it. Then he sold it and got into WWII stuff. I think he owns a couple of Dodge WCs now. Anyway nice guy.
There is one nut on a M151 that is very difficult to remove.....

I also have that Tshirt along with the Sherman and the M35a2. I got them at Thunder Over Michigan. He had a booth set up. I was like a kid in a candy store and wanted one of each.

a while back - I tried to do it with Thailand and the shipment was refused. Perhaps it has changed but check it out just the same, sherwan
Sherwan's in the business, I'm sure he can provide the valid intel + its not that there's going to be a container full of it. A few pieces at a time can go.

Well my friend,

i've been doing this for quite a while, and i have no problem with my clients in the US. Most of them buy container load. However the argument is correct, back in the 90's there were sanctions imposed by the Clinton administration, which resulted in a limited quantity of a goods to be procured from Pakistan by the US, known as "Quota". Nowadays there is no such thing, because in 2001 the sanctions were lifted by the Bush Administration.

I dont know whats the latest development in the US about this, but since 2001 its pretty darn easy to send goods to the US.

Thanks
Sherwan
