The "Goat" always takes a bad rap. A buddy of mine told me they used to purposely rig Goats for airdrop wrong just to let them hit the ground. Than a couple places airborne train have some buried where they fell. There is a guy in Port Clinton, Ohio, an ex-Marine who has one with a cable...

That makes things simple, besides if I want to keep something, I just download it anyway. Thanks for keeping the site moving forward.

Well, I'd better include the three my Rottweilers are standing security over or they'll have something to say about it, they're usually alongside me when I'm on the site. One M-54 cargo, One M-62 wrecker and the Granddad of my 5 tonners, a 42 GMC CCW

Hey, I could use a set of frame extensions, my M-62 was robbed before I got her, and while I'm aquiring other things have not come across these yet. Looking for both in and out, so let me know what extras you might have. Thanks

It could be worse, I travel alot for work, and the wife DOES have control of our finances, I've got a yard full of OD Green toys, some also live elsewhere for now, but the wife's Lionel and rail stuff collection is threatening to take over the house. Even the Rottweiler's don't know what to make...

My 62 is a gasser and the exhaust is aft of the cab, and I've seen several older M-62's here in Ohio that were in bad shape, one in Clyde, Ohio that moved to New England, another in Clyde that went somewhere on e-bay, and another down in Amish country that they kinked the boom bad on while...

While you guys were up there around Lang Vei did you come across any 5th Batt. 4th Arty Reg. stuff. My best friend/brother in law Sgt. Dave Sexton was killed there when his 155 was destroyed by an explosion while on gunfire support. Supposedly the Army lost the remains while returning them to...

Hey, like the idea of the retirement community....lol..Some folks here my half unit house/animal sits for when they travel, built a very large house, about 2.2 mil worth (for the dogs if you ask them why) and there is an apartment over the FOUR garages where they wanted my wife and I to move in...

It works some times. There is a guy in Port Clinton, Oh. that has a yard full of JUNK, old rotting boats, abandoned inground fuel tanks aftert they're torn out, old cranes, and he has an old marina with even more junk in it. There is an old ex-Navy crawler with a boom on top, is supposed to be...

They also don't have the weather related problems 'in the south' that we have here. Watch those "yankee" jokes though.... Everybody knows there arn't any Yankees working from Columbus south. Just watch the interstate Monday and Fridays. But if they are still selling out of Michigan, that...

Diesel does have storage problems, My M54 had been in storage several years, we dumped in some additive to combat the alge, or as they call it in the marine industry, "bilge bugs" as well as some restore, mixed it with some fresh, and it worked OK. Once we got all of it run through and changed...

You have about hit the nail on the head with Winer Motors, They are nice people for the most part, but they will not part with anything at a reasonable price, and "donation", don't even think about it. They have two M123 10 tonner's for 20,000 each, there is a Sherman and a Sherman Recovery...

1. That filter will take the dust, and "dusting it off" is easy, even with a 'helper' hose from the truck. They are meant for heavy service and ease of cleaning. 2. Why would you want to 'bob' a good truck? Its a 5 ton, want a heavy pick-up, go get a dodge ram or some such thing. Besides...

There is an M123 on e-bay, the guy is asking 20 some thousand for it!!!!! But as for going to Oshkosh Equipment, you'd be better getting ahold of Rancher's Supply. That is just as to price difference. And as I understand it, Winer Motors in Akron has two tractors for sale, about 20,000. each...

Some folks think all LARGE trucks are owned by "Rednecks", around here, but I've not heard it personally. They don't say anything much to my face, I think they're afraid of a part-time cop with all these big green trucks, listens to bagpipe music and has three rottweilers for security with a...

So what did you pay for them, I know a guy here in Ohio with family in Georgia who is looking for a deuce. Wants to put it to work in his tree business, he might be able to help you, but he isn't going to be interested in paying more than what you paid for it, especially if he has to get it out.

according to most sales stuff, including the Standard Catalog of Military Vehicles, an M-54 with a winch is worth a grand more, and one with a Mack diesel is also worth a grand more than one without. But thats the nice thing about this hobby, alot doesn't make sense, and nobody's "dumb"...

And I'm not even trying to sell off the M35-A2 stuff I've got. I got a cab and chassis from a GSA auction, cut it for parts, very little works on the 5 tons actually. Offered it to some dealer, I'll not name, but they walked away from a multi-fuel, cab tub,rear axles,drive lines fenders hood...

I'd be interested in the power take off stuff. I've been looking for the linkage especially. Thanks Pat

Maverick, I think papercut did. He has the prices you are looking for, and that old article I mentioned, I found, and it afirms his post here.
