    That M20 they show is considerably tidier than Goobers, but then his hasn't ever been "restored" and still has original unit markings on it
    "If you can make black marks on a straight from the time you turn out of a corner until the braking point of the next turn, then you have enough power."

    DeMyer's Laws - an argument that consists primarily of rambling quotes isn't worth bothering with.

    It was. I've got an article somewhere with a pic of the 3 wheeled Mule with the powered front wheel halfway up the side of a house.
    pilot is a very casual Italian Mountain regiment private - with the requisite feather in his hat.

    One of their powered artillery pieces apparently had more reverse gears than forward...
