Yuppp. getti'n old is a bummer.

I can imagine your Son, milling around with His bud's and then "Holy camoley" "look at my DAD's truck guys".....they were probably all eyeballs and gaping mouths.......love it..lol

Exactly, exactly...... the cardboard is the perfect idea.

And finally the finished product. The whole project should take a couple hours, no need to rush.

MoGas was dyed blue ie. militaty gas. so I wonder if the blue coolant is a military thing too?

Black Chalk, that may be a precurser to a coolant leak, with the loss of a shiny look to the oil. Typically contaminated oil looks like foamy chockolate to foamy licorice looking. Could be insuficient warm-up time causing condensation, but if it starts changing color to the browns, thats a red...

From your first pictures Gimpy, I thought it looked like a$$, but the last pictures has it comeing out looking pretty good. Doghead thinks your changing platform's not so good, and mabe he's right, if the chain broke and the latch was left undone.... dragon dammage.... but I tend to like that...

How right you are about the fileings, fortunatly I had a little 1x2" rectangle magnet setting right next to the drilling, or on the sides, below where I was drilling so as to catch by gravity and magnetic pull. Heres another thought: you may want to remove the (info) plate on the left front of...

You must be wondering "where do the clips go" Well recently a SS forum member 'Clinton' scored a 'grip' ( thats young kid talk ) ( and means alot ) and theres no instructions ! ? ? Well heres what you will need: a drill of course, a two-pac of drill bits a sharpie to mark with and philips...

Serriously, nothing but short hops of about 25 miles, mabe 50, the longest single was when I first got it, from Gastonia to my place, about 80-90 ish miles, but the guy I got it from drove from Lajune on the coast to Rock Hill SC., about 280-90 miles aprox. I think the axles and transfer are...

Probably could drive all around the Springs since Ft. Carson's there and not attract much attention. Might be neat to go to the base of Pikes Peak, or the top if your feeli'n groggy. Welcome

Rather than a locker on the rears, heres a thought. On early VW dunebuggies or sandrails they had a aparatus called a (steering brake), Jaybrake was the company that made them. We all know that when one tire starts spinning on our cars or trucks, say in the snow, that applying the brake slightly...

Some time (or years) ago, Cycle world I believe, or in any case, one of the major motorcycle rags did an article on the Red River Valley and had an editor take a vacation, with there as his destination. It was spring, and not yet blistering hot yet. The adventure ended in Big Bend, but the...

Is this to say.. others of us (out of state) can sway the effort in our favor, or just Wisconson residents? We should contact our reps...? if so I'm with ya, will do......

I see.... still I was thinking that you see the top right part of the picture.... as it uses a screw to hold on the end that a conventional blade clips/fits to..... it might work, my arms have such a screw end. If its a case of just the wiper 'blade' availability, I'm thinking this would solve...

Outstanding Recovery4x4 kinda like Lays potato chips huh... Just surfing the net I came across these arms @ 10" and 14" You can see that they would fit conventional blades or just the use of the piece from the blade-catch and the screw might be used on our wiper arms. These are marine use ie...

I think you guys have seen the one I'm talking about, a little oh...7x10-12 outfit dropped from aircraft and parachuted in, something the engeneeres or Seebees would use. I think OD might have pics of one. These pictures come from the archive of Olive Drab, they be to small to give the look, I...

I'm wondering if you going to haul this around just because, or actually work it? Thats alot of weight to haul just because, having said that and thinking it for display usage more than likely, It seems to me there was a dozer from the 40's? a Military small little one that would be weight-wise...

I tenativly want to use black 1/2" rubber matting in the cab, of course it will have to be cut to fit the angular shapes of the tunnel, and I'll use rivits and ss washers to fasten it likely, but besides useing the spray liner in the bed, I was thinking of the Roll-on type since its likely to be...
