Getting ready to help my neighbor move a short distance to a new house. It was a good opportunity to get a picture of the rig with the newer camo job on the trailer. The trailer hardly ever gets moved because of the 6700' altitude here and the lack of any serious power from the good old...

The truck belongs to a fellow SS member so I don't know if he has had to buy parts for the carbs. I'll will find out. And you are correct. Zenith on the bad motor, Holley on the replacement motor. Owner is swapping carbs also. Zenith going on the replacement motor.

Here is another series of pictures.

Gamagoat1's M816 was put to work in assisting the change out of the big old gas motor in this 1958 M54. It appeared to have ate up a forward crank bearing on I-25 last year on its way to a big airshow in Denver. Many SS/MVCC members involved in this operation. The M816 made the swap fairly...

This picture was a joke put on our website. And that all it is. Entertaining but in no way promoting being totally stupid.

I also have the Walmart $77 batteries in my deuce and BV206. They have been in he BV for 5 years and have always started it up with no problems after sitting for months. Same for the deuce. For the deuce I bolted 2 marine/rv battery trays to the bottom of the battery box. They each have...

My two large 8D batteries did in fact stay above 25 volts for some time. Again this unit is not going charge 24 volt batteries as used in MVs. As used by me the unit did a good job of maintaining the charge even during the cold periods of Colorado winters. Just a note, after driving the truck...

The Denver area had some real nasty westerly winds last night. Anywhere from 70 to 95 MPH gusts. Unfortunately the 95 MPH winds fanned a small wildfire up by Fort Collins into a 2000 + acre house burning mess. Down here south of Denver we ONLY had 75 MPH gusts. The wind took down a good...

This JCB is a little heavier but way faster. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/conversations/19198-check-cool-vehicle-out-new-military-backhoe.html

Excellent idea. Tends to save the stub threads like you said.

I don't know, ease of application, good looks, touches up way better than enamels, Home Depots everywhere, easy clean up, maybe a little cheaper, is working well for me and I like the stuff. I guess we'll see how well this stuff holds up but so far so good.

I like Gunfreak 25 used the new Behr paint/primer in one matching some rattle can painted parts to do my M971 trailer. Washed it real good with dish soap and a pressure washer first. I am happy whow well this big project came out. The paint has been on the trailer now for 8 months and is...
