Feel real lucky to finally be able to live here. I spent time here as a kid on Grampa's ranch. Then more time as I could during my working life. Finally retired and got to move here full time.

PNW East Convoy I am really looking forward to hosting as many of the SS group as can make the trip! Gail and I have a 5 acre piece in Joseph, OR where you all can set up camp. If more than a few come, I will arrange for porta-potties. I have a pretty complete shop, in case some maintenance...

The other thing is that these IBC totes are light enough that I can throw them in and out easily (when they are empty). The hoses are quick coupled so I can empty the bed in less than 10 minutes.

I used to have a M105 trailer but got rid of it. The thing was so heavy (empty) that the Grizz would barely pull it. Of course, later, I found that the fuel was turned down so far (on the fuel injection pump) that the truck would barely get out of it's own way! After mounting a pyrometer and...

Water truck Here are some pics of the Grizz, fitted out with 4 ea. 250 gallon IBC totes. I used 2" hose to manifold them together. Eventually, I will make a platform for the square tube trailer receiver to mount a Honda fire pump and hose reel. Now I can fill stock tanks on the ranch or use...

Sounds Good. I will set aside that weekend and will check back in March or so for a head count. I am looking forward to this get-together! May 21-22 in Joseph, OR.

Scott and all- I have looked at dates and talked with the Supreme Commander, she concurs: We could do the weekend of May 21-22 or June 25-26, if you wanted to stay away from major holidays. If you wanted to do July 4 or Memorial Day (long weekends) that is OK, but anyone who does not want to...

Hey srodocker.....kenniwick is halfway to Joseph, OR! Maybe we could schedule a run through the trip-cities to Joseph next spring?

quarkz, I picked the totes up used from a local farm fertilizer/chem/seed supplier. I will post pics in the next few days.

I really love living in rural N.E. Oregon, but miss being able to join your PNW convoy/rendezvous. If one or more ever wants to do a road trip to the beautiful Wallowa Valley, I have more than enough acreage to park a bunch of MV's and set up a camp! I had ask on this thread about the...

Does anyone know of one of these 500 gallon tanks for sale? Maybe Brad (I have lost contact info for him)

That is COOL!

Joseph Thanks for the reply Ahab. I have a daughter living in Alexandria, VA. Joseph is at 4200 feet. So that is an almost vertical 5000+ feet rise from the valley floor to the top of the Eagle Cap Mountain peaks. Google "Wallowa County images" for some great photos of the farms, the...

Car show in Joseph, Oregon, June 12-13, 2015. The promoters of this event in the beautiful Wallowa Valley (friends of mine) would love to have participation from some military trucks, in addition to mine! Pre-Registration is pretty much sold out, but that is for dinner, etc. You can enter...

If you are just going by the writing on the building........I have been in many places in this country where I have not seen a sign in English for multiple square miles! Spanish only, yes; Chinese only, yes; etc. So that could have been in East LA?

Happy Thanksgiving to the PNW troops!

I think you nailed it glassk . I will find some drawings and check some measurements. Thanks all.

Welcome to the fraternity! You will find a world of technical data and expertise here, along with a lot of real good folks.....and an occasional (well you find them everywhere!) The M37 is a great truck and you have found a really big support group here.

This appears to be a WWII? Dodge chassis with center fold hood and flat fenders. The rest of the sheet metal is gone. Drive train is intact (probably frozen up). Check out the pictures.

I pick it up tomorrow, we shall see!
