    Halftrack Repair

    Well, didn't see a halftrack forum, figured this would be the best place to start this. A guy that knows Craig...the Museum Curator..has a halftrack. An M3A1. A USN Cheif and Mine Man :shock:. He drove the Pee Pee out of it. I think a bit of too much driving and not enough maintenence took it's...

    Cummins Powered 5Ton Trucks

    Just a heads up for all the people out there that have the NHC. After a mess of research trying to find parts for Wreckerman, I have run into some good and bad news. Good news is that from Cummins, cylinder kits are still made and available at around $300.00 for the piston, liner, liner packing...

    SoCal Fall Dez Trip...What do you wear and what size?

    This is just a feeler out to see what/whch people prefer, t-shirts, t-tops, both, and what size. Just so I don't have a mess of stuff left over like last year :roll: Don't know prices yet...remember, no profit, just paying me back. Last year they were a tad under $10.00 IIRC

    Mule Misshap

    The Museum has a Mule we use to transport parts, tools or whatever around the grounds. It sure is a handy toy to have when you gotta go and heft a large part from the back 40 to the shop. Well, the last few times we used it, it has been puffing black smoke at idle and not running as good as it...

    M725 resto

    Drove the M106 out of the shop and retrieved the M725 from the Ambulance line so we could start cleaning it up. It has been 11 years since this truck has been touched, hopefully it will move under it's own power back into it's parking spot. It needs a door hinge..believe it or not, someone...
