I like the video that shows the roller continue to spin freely after making it down the bank, they should all spin like that. ;D

That video and many others mentioned in this post are on the CD Documentary "Keep Em Rolling" to include a slew of pics from the White Motor Company, with soundtrack and several interviews with WWII and Korean Veterans who served on halftracks.

Let me know how many of you are interested in getting copies and I'll see what I can do!!

I am working some copies of the video from the producer .. he is sending me the latest copy so I can check out any changes made since we last spoke.

Can I please get a count of how many would like a copy?  Believe cost is $20 a copy to handle manufacturing cost and shipping.
