    Military Police markings arte a big NO GO!!!!

    Unfortunately, as we all know, the law does vary from state to state. Take Nevada for instance: On amber beacon lights: Reference: NRS 484.579 Flashing amber warning light: Limitations on operation and display; permit to mount on certain vehicles; fee. 1. It is unlawful to operate or...

    Military Police markings arte a big NO GO!!!!

    Probably true, but unfortunately, irrevelant to this specific case, just as whether or not you're "acting" as a cop while driving a police-marked vehicle or not. The key problem here is the word "Police" being displayed, at least as it appears in the letter of NY law. Now for the record, I...

    20+ Iraqi M35A3s

    Don't know why no one likes the A3s, they're good looking trucks IMHO. A little much on the bling with all the options, but neat nonetheless.

    Grill Cover

    Don't know if you still need them, but I have both the front winter grill cover as well as the tailgate winter cover. Both in nearly new condition and never installed. Don't have much use for them here in AZ. Have mounting hardware kit as well as mounting instructions.

    GEN 1 light

    Re: light Sorry was late seeing this. If you still need one, I have 5 total Gen 1 light lenses still in original AC packaging; from my CUCV parts bin. See attached pic. The white area on the package that didn't come out in the picture says: 2540-01-161-2138 FILTER, SIGNAL LIGHT 1 EACH...

    Desert Camo CUCV?

    A number of trucks had a desert camo paint job, many of them M35s and the aforementioned 880s, not to mention armor. Primarily seen in the southwest states NG units. Oddly enough, these camo patterns didn't stay for Desert Storm, just the desert tan being used for that conflict. As far as...

    Dash pads

    Same problem here too, which I failed to mention in the other dash pad thread in this forum. I ended up tightening the dash bezel screws on the sides just below the bottom of the dash pad on each side in order to "grip" the pad into place, which worked, but tends give a slight "warped" look to...

    Mileage in the M1009

    I experience the same thing. Granted, my highway miles are at average of 65-70 going from AZ to NM and back, so I do wonder if going 55-60 would actually change anything. Doubt it, but I'm :banghead: also, like you.

    J.C. WHITNEY ?

    I got the same black dash pad replacement from JC. In addition to the problems you list, mine also has some more. Minor problems, mind you, but they're still there. On the driver's side of the dash, the windshield defrost vents don't sit perfectly flat, making installation of the plastic vent...

    glow plug system update

    Hello, Quick related question to the subject. My '86 M1009 used to have the "wait" light illuminate for about 8 seconds once the key was turned to on, and the resultant voltage drops on the gauge as the, I believe, glow plugs cycled. about a week ago, it stopped doing that. Now, the "wait"...

    Jack's Govt. Surplus

    Well, checked the place out. LOTS of stuff, and the guy wants to sell whole vehicles. He gives them a thorough checkout including repaint and cab canvas. Sample prices as follows: M35s (tons of them): $7500 M54/813: $12,000 M123 (3 of them that I could see): $14,000 M1008/1009...
