Default M923A2 parts scrounging at John Winslow's
Hey all,
I made a parts run to John Winslow's yesterday to get much of what I needed to get the 923A2 up and running. It was a fun day filled with breaking free rusty bolts, lying on my back in the weeds, knuckle banging, etc... I scored all the parts I needed to put the front end back together (axle shaft, bearing, spindle nuts, bearing nuts/lock, drive flange bolts, CTIS valve), a heater, a power steering ram, a rad. mount, a tach/cable, switches, batt cables, horn button, flasher, warning center module, new cab top, headlights, wiper blades, washer bottle and some other bits. As soon as I can save some more cash I'll go back for a little more cosmetic stuff. Enjoy the pics.

E22 and Jdob, John didn't have what you guys were looking for, sorry.

John is a very nice guy to work with. Don't hesitate to give him a call!

I have ordered parts from him but I have never been down there.
Looks fun.

HOLY CRAPP! Is that a rare R-2 airport crash truck in the second photo? That is DEFINITELY a rare and valuable beast that needs to be saved! Here's a pic of what it used to look like:

Yep, I didn't look too close at it, but while I was passing by, it looked to be pretty straight and complete. Give him a call and see if he'll make you a deal on it Mike

The crash truck is in bad shape. The rear compartment side doors are all gone and it has been framed in with wood/metal. Looks that it was a "camper" in its day!
