Hi Guys,
I've been wanting to share this for a while but had to wait till after Christmas. I made a photo book for Don for Christmas this year covering the entire restoration of his halftrack. That's five years, four years in my shop. Anyway it is 80 plus pages full of photos and actual WWII halftrack ads. It turned out so nice I thought I would share. If you want one I can order more. They are about $40.00 each and can be picked up at your local Costco. Unfortunately I can't share this like the calendar so I need to order them. Here are some photos of the book.

If interested PM me and I will let you know how to get one. By the way, you can make one of your track. There are lots of places that do this now. It just takes some time getting used to the software. It took me 2-1/2 weeks to make Don's. That included a lot of sneaking around in getting photos. ;) I was even thinking of making a series of How To articles made into one of these books and also one on halftrack collectibles such as ads and things. I have at least 80 to 100 WWII halftrack ads, all different to put into a book. Don can chime in with how much he likes his book. Let me know what you think.

Frank,
I replied to your PM before seeing your post. I can have the book shipped to your address of choice. It's a little extra for shipping but don't know how much till I order it. If you want to add some extra $ for shipping I will send the difference back to you.

That would be a very nice addition if you take your half-track to shows, much nicer then a poster, of course you would have to think about this before you finish your restoration with out a bunch of pictures!
