    Got the MKT Home

    Only opened 1 of them and it was missing an insert. I'm kind of hesitant after seeing the pot full of crap. There's enough grease on the griddle to repack the bearings. I'm sure it saved it from rusting but it's nasty.

    Got the MKT Home

    I got this one for $750. I figured since it was here vs having to ship or transport one I could let some of the issues with it slide.

    Got the MKT Home

    "Mostly" I guess. I haven't gotten in to all the nooks and crannys yet. There were 3 cutlery rolls but only 1 was complete and 1 was almost empty. No MBUs although I've got 8 so I'm okay there. No MBU cords either but I've got them as well. What I was hoping for and didn't really expect...

    Got the MKT Home

    I knew the travel cover was toast (paging Mr. Obvious) but was hoping the roof canopy was in decent shape. Turns out it isn't. Several grommets are torn out at the corners. I'm not sure they're in good enough shape to repair or not. I'll try a boat upholstery shop and see if maybe they can...

    Got the MKT Home

    Got home safe and sound and started unpacking. First thing I find out is the leveling jack handle is missing. Anyone have a field expedient fix for that? The next thing I notice is that this thing is a MESS. Meaning they didn't clean shinola when they turned it in. I know it's been 2 and...

    Got the MKT Home

    Picked up a cheap (for good reason) MKT out of Ft Sam in Dec. The EUC cleared yesterday so I wanted to pick it up in time to play with it a little this weekend. Both tires were flat and the lug nuts were pretty much frozen in place. I had tried to change the tires the day Westy and Gimpy...

    Is this a good deal on a m923?

    I know this is off subject but you might want to either take down or alter the picture on your link of your MP school certificate. Less than honest people can do a lot of harm with your name and SSN. I posted instead of PMing in case there are others that have similar stuff easily accessed on...

    Road Trip - Las Vegas to OKC

    Great pictures of the road trip! I didn't get picked for jury duty so I certainly could have made it. Of course my wife would have been on the other side of the jury box after she killed me for blowing our life savings in Vegas (or on another MV). Besides, I wouldn't have been much help...

    1954 M37 paint and markings

    Not on GL but they show up on GSA auctions now and then. There were a bunch (around 10 or so) in WY a couple of months back.

    Tank Pumping Unit - TPU modification help

    Finally got back to this project. I have a MKT that the EUC should be clearing on any day so needed to make room in the driveway. I got the tank in to the 105A3 but not in the final position yet. Getting the tank in is really a 2 man operation so as it was only me I was beat by the time it...

    Member M185A3 broke down in San Marcos Texas?

    North on their way to Barrman's place.

    Member M185A3 broke down in San Marcos Texas?

    Actually the owner should check now since Westy and Gimp would have been rolling through there about an hour ago.

    Deuce pick up GSA lot San antonio

    You guys need me to bring anything to Sam? Slave cable, tires, batts, beer?

    Deuce pick up GSA lot San antonio

    Okay guys, what time does the party start at Ft Sam on Tuesday? I've got to go down and try to swap out the tires on my MKT and figured I'd try to be there around the same time in case you needed moral support.

    m35a2 insurance... need advice

    Please remember that insurance AGENTS are SALESPEOPLE paid on COMMISSION. They will say and do things that are in THEIR best interests not necessarily YOURS. The #1 thing you need to do after buying coverage from any company is READ THE POLICY!!! Especially the section that describes YOUR...

    Tips on buying an M37?

    There were around 7 M37s on GSA out of Wyoming a month or so ago. They still pop up on GSA ocassionally. As mentioned regarding rust on the cowl. I bought what I thought was a really rust free body to use on my wife's truck. Got it home and started the disassembly only to find out once I...

    M1's don't float

    I saw a very similar thing at Ft Polk in '86. We had an attachment of LANG tanks with our Mech INF Bn. The 113s were swimming through mud so the tankers thought they'd try dryer ground to our left flank. I watched three of them following one after another like little ducks until the first one...

    M1010

    If you get it you might try running an ad in SS Classifieds offering to trade it for a 1008. Again, it would be a lot cheaper for you and save a vehicle.

    M1010

    My question would be "why?" It's your truck to do with what you want but there are a lot of people looking for M1010s and a lot more M1008s running around for sale. By the time you get done with the cost of repacing the rear cab panel, putting in a rear window, buying a bed to go on it, and...

    ...a STOLEN periscope..

    Probably some kid (belonging to a MVPA member) who wanted to run around to his friends bragging that he had a piece off of a "tank." Like Bulldog said, not likely someone that actually owns one.
