I saw a half dozen on GL with lights mounted on them back in October. They appear on GL and GSA once in a while. Typical price is close to $1000 now.
I have 2. One in original condition that I got from GSA in November. The other is in line for restoration. Apparently it was an air force...
Have you tried having it cleaned. May not need a recore.
My M109 didn't get above 220 at the 104 deg road temp except on the steep long grade outside El Paso.
I used the horn a lot from Sonora to the ranch. Every time I passed deer I honked the horn and they would jump and run. Best entertainment I had the whole trip. Well, that and the 4 armadillos I flattened on the way up. Never hit a hoover hog before but they kept running out in front of...
Ed was a great help. Picked up my truck (ft bliss) and 2 M101A1 trailers (santa fe) off-base and prepped it for the road. All for a couple of old tool boxes and a geared lug wrench.

New 6tl's are about $175. Optima redtops are $179 at local parts store. Anybody know how the red top compares to the 6tl (or 6tmf) battery in CCA and reserve capacity.
Mules are extremely useful around the shop. Mine isn't all stock so I use it for moving heavy items and as a mobile work bench. Because of the large flat work area it really works well. My rear engine guard is heavier than stock and had a ball hitch on it so I replace that with a receiver...
RE: Michelin 11.00-16 XZL
XL's and XZL's should be fine and are 1100x16. I have seen several M37's and M715's with XL's and XZL's. I have both XL's and XZL's on my M715's. They drive very nice.
The XML tires are 325/85-16 and won't fit since they are so wide.
