    Cannibalized while waiting for EUC!

    Nonotagain, you are spot on with your assessment. When my buddy got his acessories "liberated" it was suspected that a dealer that had been there the day before with 4-5 "helpers" was the culprit. We were told that the "helpers" were caught multiple times nowhere near the equiptment they were...

    M1009 off road

    Stock everything and doesn't even know it's in the mud. This is in a field in MD after the rains last week. (sorry for the ruts dad) :)

    Cannibalized while waiting for EUC!

    If you talked to Justin I would believe him. He's never acted anything but professional and seems to actually care about what's going on. Btw, my friend bought some generators a few months back and by the time the EUC cleared all of the asessories had vanished. He had even padlocked all of...

    My SF-97 came today - Now what?

    I believe the numbers for trailers are lot numbers from the manufacturer, not an individual "vin", hence you get multiple people trying to register different trailers under the same number. Someone posted about it a while back.

    LAWS for passengers in the back??

    Maryland: people 16 and older; people 15 and younger if the vehicle is traveling 25 mph or less; employees being transported to work sites or people engaged in farming operations; exceptions do not eliminate requirement to use child restraint or belts; inapplicable to pickup trucks with...

    Dyed Diesel / off road fuel.......

    I've noticed a lot of talk about certain states cracking down, NC being one of them. I was wondering if anyone has noticed increased enforcement in their home state/ area. I'm in Maryland and know that our state troopers are pretty rigid at the scales from what I've heard, but don't know about...

    Total production numbers

    Tisk tisk, Southdave! I had some reservations until I got my 1009. Haven't looked back, it's great and very useful. (somethings gotta move all the 101's and 105's!) Besides, it reminds me of my first car, a 1990 Chevy Caprice police cruiser. Only difference is the CUCV is taller, shorter...

    I'm just curious...

    $33K for my CUCV new and way less than 10% of that to get a runner that has been fairly well maintained since the early 80's, sounds good to me. Besides, the Green Gods said I had to buy. rofl

    Bringing my M1009 home

    Looks good man. Having it start is a huge plus, however door dings are a pain. I'm sure someone will want the antenna mounts and bridge plate as many (maybe half) in recent sales in the mid-Atlantic have been missing them. Now it's time for some muddin vids!

    Door weather striping

    I second on LMC. I'm in the process of making a list of which weather stripping I need for my 1009. J C Whitney is the only other resource I have used for reference, but in this case I think LMC is the best choice.

    M-52A2 spin on oil filters?

    I second, Jatonka's kits are beautiful. Installs in minutes and you are very happy when looking at the oil presure gauge upon starting.[thumbzup]

    Who has the oldest VIN on his truck?

    Can't recall the VIN at the moment, but I know someone with a '52 Studabaker (gov't coverted to M35a2 config). It's awesome how these trucks morphed into newer models over the years. Just goes to show you the longevity of the original design.

    M52 Inspection ?

    A CUCV with carpet? Blasphemy? You be the judge

    What carpeting? I don't see any carpet. :roll:

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately? - Part 1

    Rhinob, I was thinking the 115th light infantry NG unit out of the armory in Frederick. I did a guardsman for a day a few times back in high school and they were pretty cool guys. How hard was it to apply the CARC? I've heard some people had issues with their spray setups. I need a setup of...

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately? - Part 1

    Rhinob, yours looks exactly like what I was looking to do. Still haven't decided on unit markings yet.

    Ft Meade

    Nonotagain is correct. Sarah was fantastic, but has moved to DRMO. Justin is about as nice a person you could find. Tamara (sp), I believe that's her name, is great also. She can lift alot for being soo petite. Amanda does the scheduling for Mechanicsburg and Annville. She always seems...

    Is GL Hard To Work With?

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Thats my responce to the title of the thread. "Government Liquidation is like a hormonal woman- you can never predict it. One day they will piss me off to no end. The next they will suprise me by actually helping me out. But far more often they screw things up." The...

    I love Unimog !

    Purty Mog! My dad's got a 404 swiss and loves it. (so do I) If you're not already a member I would recommend joining the Washington Area Chapter Blue & Gray Military Vehicle Trust. Its a good club filled with knowledgable people who own a wide range of olive drab toys.

    Harbor freight to the rescue

    Love Harbor Freight. Mom hates it when my dad's headed there cuz she knows he'll be gone a long time and come back with a trunkload of stuff. Doesn't complain too much though cuz the stuff is soo cheap. btw, good place to get needle scalers, which are excellent for getting that peeling paint...
