    Who won what on 12 NOV?

    I scored an S-280 shelter, 50 5 gallon MWCs and just for the heck of it a M-68 duct heater. No one bid on the duct heater so I just threw a bid on it for fun. I lugged it home and it fired right up.... Still have to get the S-280 from Riley, luckily they are right down the road.

    found an M37 with winch at a friends farm

    A friend of mine's father has an old M37 sitting out back of his farm. Not rusted but it stopped running probably 20 years ago and they parked it there. There she has sat. But what perked my interest was the winch on it and how it is all there. Are winches for M37s common? Trying to decide if...

    MEP 701A help needed!! DC Control Circuit Breaker popping

    I just won a MEP 701A 3 kw diesel generator with a lil over 500 hours and just fired it up. It has a dead battery so I jumped it with my Deuce. It started right up and ran for about 5 minutes.

    M113 tracks on a Deuce???

    I was talking to a friend and he related how M113 APC tracks could be fitted to the duals of a Deuce to make it into a halftrack. He said it worked along the same pattern as what Christie did back in the 20/30s. He related how he saw it done in the USMC using old M113 tracks which were put right...

    11.0-20 NDTs on a deuce, good idea?

    So, then my question is, do the 11x20s offer enough of an advantage to bother with, or rather than spending the money on them would it better to step up to a larger tire......and if so, what combo? Unfortunately, I don't have deep pockets on this. Would the radial 11x20s offer a significant...
