I just had to check out the link to satisfy my suspicion of who was selling a $500 fan belt........ I was puzzled when I saw who the seller actually was and didn't quite get it until I got into the description section.
Thanks for all your FREE information and endless hours of work that have connected so many people and their passion on the site.

So when I did get mine in 2009 I was surprised at the lack of information out there. But since you put up your site the community has really stepped up and I have a darn good portion of my M2 laid out in CAD. Incredible what one person with selfless motives can accomplish for such an old hobby. Thanks a lot Steve. keep it up.

i really appreciate your thanks of my efforts.

i also remember back in 2009 and before this site.
information for halftracks was nonexistent. you could ask on the G for something as simple as a spark plug number and you would be told to contact the halftack parts dealer. it drove me crazy.

i also really like that the members here are easy going.
people can advertise there parts for sale and not worry about upsetting anyone.
