Even with gas at a buck a gallon, he was still seriously talking about having me install a Cummins 4BT in it... But he never did. Sadly, he sold it a year or two later when he had to move out west for his job. I had no place to put it at the time or I would have added it to my collection...

It does if you are using the current solid state flasher unit (same as what is in a M35, etc.), the switch used with the earlier "bread box" flasher unit was different (looks like a Signal Stat unit). I'm pretty sure that they are the same functionally, but the older unit had a different...

I met a guy at the Southern Power Wagon Gathering in Thomson, GA, back in the mid-ninties who had a really nice US Spec. M43 that had a pintle hitch on it. He had installed it himself. His comment was that it worked really well, but that he had to rotate it to get the step to clear when he...

Thanks for the update! I'll just add that I feel spoiled... I get to see Bill at the local car/truck shows as well as at MV events... He is a true wealth of information (and parts).

I'm located in Raleigh, NC (27603). If you're driving through and want/need the phone number, just PM me. The work/home/cell phone is the same...

I'll agree with the theory that it is a sludged up filter, especially if it has funky smelling stuff in the tank and the owner hasn't driven it much since it was purchased and, perhaps, has not yet changed the filter. Running out the thumbscrew in this kind of event just to make sure that you...

If you have a SF97 with the reasignment from GL to you, then DMV will consider it the same as a NC dealer sale. You would need: Title Application (MVR-1) Vehicle Title (SF-97) with the Reasignment from GL to you Bill of Sale (your GL invoice) Insurance Form (MVR-615) Damage Disclosure Form...

We get real busy at the Lodge later on in the year with the Apple Harvest Festival the second, third, and fourth weekends in October... The place is crawling with folks so we can't do a trailride then... Plus, Clinto has his GA rally in October... :) However, I am planning on getting back...

I have a large quantity of Gillespie paint in stock, in multiple colors... I can deliver to Syria, VA (site of the Graves Mountain Trailrides Labor Day weekend) either during the event or earlier (I'll be up there in a few weeks in order to do some more pre-rally prep...). Or, we can make...

Well, it's that time again! We are putting together the 3rd Annual Graves Mountain rally here, looking for folks who want a nice family-oriented get-together, lots of outdoor activities at the Lodge, as well as trail rides, vending for anyone who wants to sell stuff, etc. We had a great...

Don't forget that we will be holding the rally again this year on September 1-5, 2011. Same game plan as in the past, just more trails on the mountains (including several that can be run with a deuce or five ton....). The website needs updating (info has been sent to the web guru, but he...

Welcome from a Virginian currently living in North Carolina... :) As mentioned above, the Virginia Rally will be held on Sept 1-5, 2011 in Madison County (Syria, 22743)... The website is currently being updated (see link below) and there is a thread about it in the Rally section. We hope...

I have sold many to non-MV owners who have powered them (individually, without the harness) by using a pair of small motorcycle/lawn mower batteries to provide the 24 volts, gator clamps (to connect the wiring to the batteries and to connect the batteries to each other, and a standard automotive...

Yep, she sure can... :) I hope that your current road trip is going smoother than the last one... ;)

The title rules/procedures changed last year in response to some issues with vehicles that had been improperly titled over the previous several years... For that matter, the rules are always evolving (at both the State and Federal level)... I just talked to NCBloodhound, hopefully, he'll...

I'm late to this thread, but not to meeting the GIP... :) I got to watch her wheel down I80 last week... Hopefully, we can get her to the Virginia Rally as a warm up to the GA Rally... That way, I can see her drive on the the old mountain trails and see her reaction to our having that...

I've found that my local farm Co-Op (Southern States) has these in stock at a good price... For larger tires (say 1100r16 XZL's and 1100r20XZL's) I've found that International Tire and Tube has been a really good source. Rusty at ITT is real used to having folks call and ask for tubes for...

Management can't/won't fill out the form since they don't actually look at the vehicle... However, the folks at the actual yards are good about signing it when you pick up the vehicle (if you know to take the form with you...). GL isn't registered with the state as a dealer, but the state...

Bill of sale from a GA resident will require that you obtain your NC title by bond... Not a hard process (it is described on my website), but you may want to look for one with a transferable title...depending on cost and condition of the truck... If you have questions about the process, give...

I have a complete, running, takeout M37 engine sitting in my yard looking for a good home... It came out of one of the project trucks that I have... Tell your buddy to give me a call, I'll make him a very nice offer on it...
