    HMMWV A2 Project

    Warmed up enough to dig out the H-turret in the other barn and set it on. I have not drilled holes yet to permanently mount it. I like the open turret but I also would like to drive the drive with a top, so I am test fitting a four-man soft top over the turret assembly. If I like it, I will...

    That is the older/original style unit with riser. Seem to be harder to find, but the riser is easy to find. If I find one, I pass the info on.

    Hauling a deuce

    When Chuck speaks, I listen! I will add that people seem to be hurry to take a short-cut, but they always have time for an accident. So why jeopardize safety...get it moved professionally. If you do some homework by calling a couple of movers, a few hundred dollars goes a long way towards...

    HMMWV A2 Project

    Yes, it took awhile but now I am on the downward slope of having it be a moving truck! I fixed some more pesky leaks and I fitted the rear doors and one front door. These are the military half doors that I am using (made the front piece) for when I install the open top H turret! I can't wait...

    IT RUNS!!! Here are two mov's: first one right after I got it fired and check it over. The other is around 10 minutes into the warmup. VERY COOL sound when at 6.5 Turbo Diesel come to life! Today was spent tracking down small leaks: injector over flow tube had pin hole, tranny cooling loop...

    Nice work Chuck! I agree, either welding gas or welding wire gets depleted when the stores close!

    HMMWV A2 Project

    Well the weather finally warmed up and I felt like working in the shop the last few days and I got a LOT accomplished! I finished connecting all electrical under the dash and engine compartment, installed instrument cluster, connected the vent tubes. With the drivers seat not installed, under...
