Looks great with some fresh paint on it! it all matches now!

Thanks Warthog. We'd rather keep it as it's filling a shortage here since Maintenance has no contact truck. plus, if it hits DRMO I'll take a loan out to buy it! :P

Well guys, the CUCV-III that is (hopefully) shown below has a bit of an odd issue that my motorpool will get around to fixing, but I figured I would check and see if you guys had any similar issues and solutions, especially if it's not the obvious. So, problem: Occasionally, the starter...

This is correct. the A4 version moved the spare up top. A3s and lower usually have them mounted on the side.

I think it depends on your target audience... someone looking for a .mil issue truck would be more interested in the hard top. Someone looking for more of a fun truck or to turn it into a crawler/bogger would be more interested in the soft top. You could also do a dual listing. $XXXX with hard...

Those 'bubble' mirrors are standard in Korea, but didn't see them on very many stateside trucks. That being said, it's a great tool and should be on all these that will see regular road use.

NICE! What height are those topmost tool boxes? reachable or just light/small stuff?

I will tell you this, if I had a HMMWV and it was in that configuration, I'd want those doors vs. the 'solid' option. Plus, they already have the placards on them, and CARC'd vs some of the ones we have in the Army being unpainted metal.

Love the Duece, and the Rokon fits in well. where's it going to hide when the Duece is meandering around?

Little Triangles? They should be MWOs, or Modification Work Orders

how'd the matting work out with sound deadening? I'm thinking if I ever get my hands on one of these projects that I will have to do that.

If everything else is shot, you might be able to recoup some in scrapping the bad frame and what's left. Not that I'm an advocate of it, but there comes a point in time where it's just not possible. Obviously, shoot low, but if it's the parts you want and there's low supply and high...

Man, you are roaring through this thing! Can't wait to see road trials!

SEAFIRE, if you are going to go in on one, take that S&S mechanic and have him do at least a 10/20 inspection of the truck. Also, realize that this type of cab-over will act differently than a E-One or other fire truck chassis cab over. They are odd beasts. going back over this thread and...

You guys are doing some nice work on those trucks!

I'd be tempted to say "If it ain't broke, don't replace it"

even if you upgraded the transmission and engine and axles, you wouldn't be able to do an emergency stop... You need something bigger, truck and trailer wise.

Guidon Holder...

Had three of these with a unique unit in my old Brigade. They were replaced by Case tractors. The Case's were Up Armored ready, but were not armored. This unit did have Low Boy(s) (1 O/H but I think auth 2 or 3) to move the SEE trucks and I guess the Case ones now.
