    PYRO-maniac

    Nice Adam: I often wonder when mistakes like 12 Volt for 24 Volt are made who is working at the shop? I do like the idea of having one on the truck. I hope to add one to each of my diesels at some point in the future. I have a few digital ones that I got from GL a few years back all of them...

    Inspection of Deuce & M105 Trailer @ Barstow

    They look like runners to me. My duece had a flat in the exact same spot as a result of a loose valve core. Aired it up and drove it home 350 miles I find if the trucks have the tarp and shackles still on them chances are the truck drove in from the unit. Worse case I see is you will have to...

    SR71 Blackbird

    Thanks for posting that story. It was an awesome read and thank God America has had folks like the pilot and the designer and the companies that built them. Think about that when you see the politians that want to change things. They do not have a clue

    M 332 Ammo Trailer Tarp

    RE: tarp I have to get around to welding up fenders for mine since I can get it to pass MD inspection without them. I like the small trailer size with the big capacity and currently mine is holding a welding machine. It looks like you could go buy a Harbor Frieght one in the size shown above...

    Indiana

    Have you checked with the DRMO or the local National Guard to see what they do with excess items dispositioned for sale? Other than that I can not help but most states have a few yards tucked away somewhere. I know as a kid my Grandfather got an M38 from some guy in Northern Indiana.

    Nekkid picture!!!

    I inadvertantly poked a hole in my canvas and I sealed it with silicone glue a couple of years ago and it has held up well. Are you going to sew the canvas and fix the bows? What did the other guy look like after the rumble?

    well i just bought my first MV

    It looks a little rough and the fifth wheel is a commercial slider not the original one. It looks like it got hit by a trailer or something that knocked the front light back. The price is right for a non winch truck in that condition as long as it starts and runs.
