Hi,Thank you guys.I live in Shikoku Island...90 min flight from Tokyo.

I see some NOS M151A2s from Okinawa Base overhere...maybe they are from Barstow originally.In Japan NOS parts are mainly from Sagamihara Depot...but this(military vehicle)hobby is not so big in Japan.

Hi Dave!!How are you?Its been a long time since 2002 MVPA convention in Dallas,TX!!I have one daughter and one son now.I hope your wife and children are fine.

Mori,

The family says to tell you hi! Would love to see a picture of the kids. I still have my A2, though I am about to repaint it to Army colors to go with the gun truck we are building for the museum. Take care, really glad to see you on the board, there is a lot of good info here and the members are great!
