    Maine now requires mufflers

    Just a heads up, effective today in Maine: http://maine.gov/dps/msp/licenses/documents/Vehicle%20Inspections/ExhaustlawChanges2010.pdf This is really fallout from motorcycle operators with straight pipes, but I imagine it applies to M35A2 or M109A3 owners like myself. Installing a muffler is...

    Found roofing tar inside a M109 wall (w/pics)

    Found a surprise when I was working to remove bad rivets from the exterior rub-runner and fix the rust underneath. I was hoping to grind down the rivets from the inside of the wall, this'll add a degree of difficulty.aua Ah well, I guess the truck would be in worse shape if it wasn't...

    M109 Tactical Command Post (3rd Armored Cav, Circa 1996)

    M109 Vintage Rear End

    I've decided to restore my 66' M109 to its factory 24087 paint color and markings. I was wondering if any of you had photos of a M109's rear end with their original 1960s paint and markings? The shot I'm referring to is in the attached figure from TB746-93-1. Thanks!

    Another meeting at the Gun Club (M109 related)

    Tonight was the local fish & game club's potluck supper and I sat down at a table with a disabled vet who's on our membership committee. The Chief Range Safety officer called over from the other table and asked how "the truck was" and I replied I was replacing the rusty brake lines .... that...

    1963 Popular Mechanics Article

    Came across this multi-fuel engine article reading old copies of Popular Mechanics online. It talks about the Deuce with the LDS-427 engine. Thought it was interesting enough to share: Swirl Chamber Engine Runs on What's Handy

    Another Dam[n] Yankee From Maine

    Hi guys, a MV newbie here from Maine. I'm on day 66 waiting for a EUC from Battle Creek for a 66' Kaiser Jeep M109A3. Today's gotta be the day, right? :roll: I'm located in the Greater Portland Area right off the Cabelas exit. I'm in IT by profession but I've been tooling up for auto...
