Thanks but m38inmaine has me covered at this point. Besides, you want to trust me with a tool when I can't even take care of a phone?

While the Goat was still on the trailer I decided to power wash the underside to get as much of the NC clay off of it that I could. I took some photos of it's condition before and thought I'd put my phone on the seat of my pickup. I found out after I was drenched from low crawling under the...

Thanks! I wasn't quite sure how we were going to set them without buying something I'd probably never use again.

It's not really damaged just a little rough. I hit it with a DA and some 220 and it looks and feels like the inside of an aluminum can. There was no warping due to the procedure (although some panels are bowed but were like that before I started on it). The media they used was all recovered...

Well it is finally "un-yellow" for the most part. There are some small spots here and there that were too difficult for them to get into. There are also some spots of the underlying material that I thought they should have gotten but didn't and the things they did shoot, steering wheel for...

Actually what popped up was the video walk around on youtube. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lk7xLRMqSwk

Well pics of your Goat have escaped. I was doing a Google search for USMC Goat pics and it was on the first couple of rows. Did you post any pics on Facebook?

Well if there are any Gama Goats around there let me know.

When there is a limited supply the price goes up. That little round piece of pipe on the right fender of the orange one is something I'm looking for and can't seem to find. If it'd gone for a more reasonable price I might have bought it just for that then turned around and sold the rest...

Could be the winch alone but the orange one also has all of the goodies for a USMC Goat rebuild. On the right side you can see the ammo can rack on the rear fender and the stub mount for a M60 pintle on the front fender. Those are both desirable additions. I think it looks more ragged due to...

Prices are staying high for any of the GSA Goats coming out. Two sold in Idaho last night, after the sales were extended 4 hours, for big money. Both of these had been stripped of all breakable items and the fluids drained prepping them for the firing range. The orange one w/w brought $3736...

Here's a couple of shots of the finished products. The fiberglass seat insert and cushions as well as all of the mirror parts are NOS. I left the rattle can in the shot of the mirror to give you an idea just how tiny that mirror head is. If I was going to do any road driving I'd look at...

Try downloading the TMs from here. Everything is available except the -20. The -34p might be your best bet for the actual drawing of the parts involved. Or another option is to PM member AMGeneral. He's in Morgantown, NC and might let you take a look at his in person.

Work at the blaster is going very slooowly (as in hadn't started as of this morning). In the mean time I figured I might as well start painting some of the little things that'll need to be put on once the body is painted. Today I got the passenger seat frame done (driver's side is still with...

Anyone going through basic in the Army since at least the mid-70s rode in one of them. I would have loved to ride in them more at Benning but we were the closest (by about 100 yards) barracks to the rifle ranges. So the guys 100 yards away got to ride Cattle Cars to the ranges while we got to...

I believe it was M-yourlifeisoverforthenext14weeks Cattle Car.

He sure as heck should be footing the bill at a minimum.

I'd like to see that hardtop kit once you get it unpacked. I still don't know if I'll put a top on mine but nice to know that option is out there. I may just get one and leave it sitting in the box in the shop.

The stowage kit is by a 3rd party (the reason there's so much crap to be trimmed). What I meant is that Tamiya also makes a seperate M792 Ambulance kit that is different than the M561 kit. They just introduced them a couple of years ago so it is pretty amazing that after market vendors have...

Tamiya also makes a M792 Ambulance kit too.
