Instead of removing the bolts, how about finding the arctic kit instead? You may find it useful.

Congrats indeed! 6 meters was open to Europe this weekend and I could hear them while mobile! The rest of the bands were bouncing along nicely too! Hope to see you on the air! BTW, I will be portable PY4 in a week or so. Look for me on 20 meters.

That is a scary situation. This reminds me of an image on the web a few years ago of a fat man in a speedo. The caption read "Just because it fits doesn't make it right". How much is it to rent or borrow a vehicle to do this right??? :cookoo:

It is very easy to take the top off. Roll down the rear window and remove about 14 or so bolts, maybe more around the interior edge and along the cab roof line and whatever trim accessories that might be under the bolts, then pick up the cap using two people, one on each side like a coffin...

That is quite the collection there. What is the history of this batch? They are wonderfully preserved compared to our rustbelt troubles... Where are these?

Brazil's weather has done a great job keeping this one alive! Chorrasco and Skol? Sim!!

Yes, please PM me with the small stuff. As you may know, the airlines allow only so much. 32kg each bag. However I can also ship via boat at $250 per 27" tv box. I visit about once per year to visit with the in-laws and friends about 2 weeks at a time. This trip is already full in terms of...

Hi, I am coming to Brazil this, um, Winter. I am heading to Araxa in Minas. If it is small, I can bring it.

There is definitely stuff worth saving in that pile. Sell someone and bring home as much as you can.:jumpin:

It would be a curious swap and the 7.3 is nothing to frown upon. I drove an ´86 with the 3spd slush box and it did fine for what it was tasked. As to the swap itself, you would be looking at the transfer case as an issue. Motor, radiator, and trans mounts all would be custom. Another thought...

It seems everything else has been looked at... I had an AMC that missed behaved weird like this too.

It's a great show. Lots of MV's and an excellent inventory going back in time to chain driven axles. I intend to be there with my C800 since the unimog is still scattered over the driveway. BillF, it's a lovely ride completely on Rt9:driver:. Hope to see you all there!

Very impressive indeed!!! I may have a protective shield for the exhaust pipe too. If you mke it down this way you are welcome to it.

I am very impressed with your work on this truck! Keep it up!

I agree with reading the TM. These trucks have air over hydraulic and have extra parts as a result. I would start with lifting each axle off the ground and see if wheels spin. Then if not you can back off the shoes like normal drum brakes. Also since the master cylinder was dry, there is now air...

There is a French design truck that is out there that came with a flat head ford and conventional transmission/transfer case. It is a unimog looking like truck. As to a flat head or other v6 or v8 engine in front of a 404 unimog transmission I would not expect the transmission to last too long...

Go for it. There is an M211 on route 11 East in Farmington near the Rochester line here in New Hampshire. There is no price on it, but it has a bit of that red paint on it. The email address on the truck bounced, but between the two, you have the parts to make a good one and a bobber with the...

Can Ferro trailer it back??

I have one. An ambulance version. See the ad posted today.

Excellent! Great looking rig and "gas tank".
