Love your thread, Rockwell. Build finished yet?

I commend you for rescuing her! I myself am the proud owner of an incomplete, non running M928A1. Was the first vehicle I ever owned, has never run since I've owned it, and only finally saw it in person a month ago. People laugh at me for this thing all the time, including many fellow MV...

Oh and some of those roads just plain sucked anyway...

Finally made it home yesterday. Whew. 20 days straight of you fellow crazy army truck enthusiasts, what a trip! Ex-motorpool neighbor who we had over for dinner last night was shaking their head in a belly laugh at the "trailer" story. It has become more and more apparent to me that Steel...

Looking good! I wouldn't mind one of these myself.

Welcome to the hobby! These trucks are lots of fun, extremely useful, and are easy to work on
