Found a Scout Car M3A1 that appears to have been converted to a boom truck. All front armor appears intact... Runs but no brakes... I have no idea what it is worth or what to offer etc! Any input is greatly appreciated! Thanks

This is a very informative and useful string, needs to be 'bumped' to the top every once in a while. Thanks for the great information!

Sorry for not updating this. Hoop, you were correct as usual! Tightened the belt and it took care of the noise! I could swear the noise was coming from 'inside' the pump, but I guess the noise was actually the belt slipping and slapping on the pulley. Once again, THANKS! Hoop, what are you...

I've noticed that for a LONG time, a trailer with a generator or two have NOT required an EUC, all others did...
