Well I guess I'll have to live with that. Maybe I can pretend it's a Corp vehicle that the Army borrowed. Seeing as the Marines "borrowed" our stuff all the time.

Seemed like everyone was bidding on it. Ran considerably over the original end time (as did all the othere there). Most, with and without wench, ended over $3500 but at least they were all rollers.

Knowing my luck. Fortunately this one is about 60 miles from my Dad's house so I'm just going to have it towed there until the weather clears. Biggest problem going forward is that my trailer only has 3500lb axles on it so I'm maxed at 7k gross. I don't think I can pull enough off of the Goat...

Well since GSA has started selling Goats I had to pick one up. Well I'll pick it up in March when the snows melt in Idaho.

Your best bet is to contact the CA DMV and see what they require. Half a dozen different people on here could tell you 1/2 dozen different things and you'll never know for sure if any of them is correct.

There's going to be another surge of people, who never considered getting one before but will now, as FoxNews.com just ran a story about a 2008 model with links to a certain auction site. I'm giving up on newer stuff and just going back to finding something I can restore like the M37.

Any further developments on getting it started?

Wow, that's even from SW Research Institute (San Antonio, TX) but the conclusion is jojoba was better than the whale oil (nut is better than sperm). Personally I'd think regular crude oil distillates would be cheaper, but then I don't have the mad search skills doghead has so he may be able to...

Well I guess I'm not going after all.

Exactly as m16ty said. Also consider how the disassembly goes considering the weight of some of the parts (bed for example), having lots of loose parts and a partially torn down vehicle sitting around, space the parts take if you disassemble it all at once (can you store a torn down 5 ton where...

Wife's 1954 Israeli Defense Forces M37

You have anything else that needs a good home (or is this one still in need)? I would have taken the SEE but see it's already gone.

You couldn't afford the ammo.

I think I'm missing something here. Is our new member invisible?

Back closer to the original topic; I stopped by a hydraulic shop today and finally got a replacement fuel hose. Nice to be able to drop in and 10 minutes later walk out with the new part. Surprisingly it went back in easier than the old one came out. Replaced it, ran the pre-heat (it is 30...

80% chance of frozen precipitation on Saturday. Think I'll wimp out of this one.

Most modern tire stores (NTB, Discount, etc) won't touch a split rim wheel due to liability issues. You'll need to take it to a large truck place (who may or may not do it), a mom and pop store, or learn to do it yourself.

I take it you got the key issue resolved.

That's pretty cool watching the suspension travel. You probably need a little more weight in the rear to keep from spinning :-)
