    Where are the Circuit Breaker's in the M35A3?

    The breakers are thermal overload and self-reset. Its possible you cooked them all the way through before they opened.

    Tuning up the Little Red Hen

    We run the un-oxygenated stuff in our M3A1 halftrack and M5A1 Stuart at the museum. Already went though a set of fuel pumps in the Stuart last year. Check your oil to make sure some gas didn't leak in there.

    Wheels

    Assuming those are for your A3 deuce. How much does each one weigh and assuming they will fit on the rears/front w/out interference? If so, not a bad price considering what HEMMT rims go for.

    I had trouble reading your post without any punctuation. Glad someone else could decipher it for you.

    Lunette compatability?

    Not trying to sound like a smart butt here but if you're removing such a little amount of weight off the trailer empty and the truck can hardly handle it don't you think the truck is going to have issues with it loaded?

    Iowa? Bobbed Deuce Mods

    I saw some M35A2's in Oskaloosa a couple of months back with one of them being bobbed. Don't know if they guy did it himself although it looked like it as he had another one torn down. Also do not know if he is on SS. Best bet might be shedhunter as of now.

    Flat Black Deuce?

    I had to go back and look, dang big dog at that.

    Flat Black Deuce?

    Glad my A2 doesn't sound like that when it starts up. I would have had air pressure and down the road by the time that thing got going.

    Rise Pintle Hook Setup

    If you're going to keep towing the trailer with your civi vehicle once you get it home flip the trailer lunette so it will tow flat as well.

    So I had this crazy idea, how about this for an engine for my A3...

    To the OP of this thread -- I'm hoping this is just a kidding around thread.....otherwise to quote Dr. Greg --- "You sir, are an idiot"

    M60A3 crushing a van

    Last crushing show from the FSMM that was held on July 16th, 2011. As I said in another thread the museum is being closed so this is the last time this equipment will be operating. I am driving by the way. Enjoy

    flushing radiator/block

    Might check to see if the fins in the radiator are full of stuff, like cottonwood seeds. Its the time of year where that stuff is airborne and can plug up radiators.

    Minnesota MV laws

    You can put every day driver plates on the truck (yearly fee like whats on your car) and collector plates (pay once for lifetime). Each is different in use/requirements. Parking outside along your garage your city can still tell you it has to leave due to ordanances like what happened to me.

    Minnesota MV laws

    Depends on what you are buying, how you are licensing it and whether you have a place to store it. A little more info will get you a better answer.

    Military Museum Closing

    It was privately owned and put on lease to the museum. It was sold by the owner a couple of years ago but I don't know where it went.

    Military Museum Closing

    We have a Diamond T M3A1 halftrack but no spare parts for it. All of our parts were bought as needed during the restoration. Flying Cloud isn't that far from Snelling, you might want to check out some of the warbirds that are coming in for the MN Air Guard birthday celebration.

    Military Museum Closing

    You might be able to see some of the vehicles in your yard DH, just keep an eye on GL. Probably not the armor though.

    Military Museum Closing

    Not a funding issue, hard to be a funding issue when you get no funding in the first place. The only good news is that Papabear will be seeing some of the transferred artifacts.
