    Barn find....worth anything?

    It's not a M-37, its older. Looks a lot like the WW2 G-502 series. Yours has the same horizontal louvers as a G-502, but the brushguard is a little different. Also, I don't know if wartime production had "Dodge" stamped on the front. In any case it predates the M-37. As far as the writing...

    Georgia MVPA Show 2011

    Anyone there last year remember the vendor who had all the cheap tools? I was told he was from Athens,GA. Maybe someone can invite him to the SS GA rally. BTW, when I say cheap, they were good used American tools,not Chinese junk.

    Should I build another MRAP? Need your advice/criticism, please.

    Personally, I dont see where it's any more fake or pseudo than a bobbed 5-ton or any other host of modded vehicles and equipment posted here over the years. A forum section for replicas of rare vehicles might be in order. In the last issue of ARMY MOTORS, someone built a replica of a WW1 army...

    Should I build another MRAP? Need your advice/criticism, please.

    The yard in the ebay ad is close to MRE Depot. Here's the co-ordinates off google maps. 33.456496,-117.590598 You can see the high voltage electric lines just off to the side. Looks like he has a good many vehicles stored there.

    I think I would win the Ugliest MV Award

    The original color would be the semi-gloss olive drab, just like all the other tactical vehicles of that period.

    I think I would win the Ugliest MV Award

    On pictures 2&4 you can see traces of the original olive drab. Looks like for the four color camo the base green was sprayed on, then the pattern painted on by brush.

    Electric wiper kit

    I have a electric wiper kit as found on the M35a3, but no installation sheet. Any one have one or a link to one? I searched the site, but the only reference is in a thread in 2008 linking back to the manuals section of the old site.:roll:

    The XM60 would be something nice to do a reconstruction of, if you could find the proper Holmes wrecker unit.

    Submarines, now MRAPS, Latin style

    On a different note, has anyone on the board thought of building a replica MRAP? Of coursse, money, proper fabricating tools as well as scrounging parts would all be issues. I would think a Navistar truck chassis would be the most direct route. WarWheels.Net - Photos of the International MaxxPro...

    como wire

    I was in the Army NG in the early 80's through the early 90's and the TA-312 was the most common phone I saw. Most of the wire used was WD-1 twisted wire.
