I am not sure why it has taken so long, but here is the rest of the story. The bed was shot, so I purchased a 1990 parts truck and swapped the beds. The power steering was also donated from the 1990 Dodge. The truck was stripped of I swear 20 layers of paint, and then received a new coat of...

No I didn't, this one was taken just to prove that it would fit!

Also the one that I have is for sale, if anyone is interested in it to make a complete unit if one of these is no longer available. I am not trying to post here instead of classifieds, I am just letting you know that it is out there if needed.

Please trust me, I have looked everywhere but I can not find a reason or explanation. I am trying to figure out the inner bearing seals on my 1977 front axle, but I am not winning the battle. If I look at the TM's, there is a 3 piece seal consisting of a slinger, a wiper and a cup. In all of...

I just acquired a 1977 M880 truck, in the ever wonderful Forestry Dept red. The price was right, but the truck needs about everything. My wife already thinks I am nuts, I want to park my 2011 Dodge truck and drive this in winter!

I love my winch truck, and things like this are why.

I don't know what I did right, but my obligations have cancelled today so I will be there. Carpenter and I will be arriving in his CUCV in the early afternoon. PLEASE let me know what to bring, I did not plan on attending so I have no food prepared. PLEASE let me know what someone else forgot...

Nice truck, looks a little redneck with the 6" lift! Just kidding, Jake is a friend of mine and he REALLY likes his new truck, thanks for welcoming him guys.

Made it home without an issue. Thanks for the idea TMNT, this was a nice event with good people.

Swiss, I do store my Green Iron in your back yard! My toys are in Flowery Branch, and yesterday I took it home for this mornings breakfast at the 57th Fighter Group. Hope to see you there!

I am pulling out of Sugar Hill around 8:00, picking up a co-pilot around 9:00 in Norcross, and I should be there early. I will be taking PIB (Peachtree Industrial Blvd) all the way down. If anybody needs anything, give me a call 678-230-5211.

Sunday is better for me, I just noted that a few post up mentioned Saturday. It would not be the first time I arrived on the wrong day and had breakfast by myself.

Is it the 11th or is it Saturday? According to my calendar the 11th is Sunday.

As long as everything stays running right, count on one M35A2 W/W. I added the W/W in there for the extra parking room, I thought my pickup felt long!

Count me in, good exercise for my truck. I haven't been there in years, we used to go there after work at least once every 2 weeks, always good.
