The hood letters are kinda like your SSN, they are the vehicle's "ID", it doesn't tell where it's been but it should carry the same hood number throughout it's whole military career. 10041 indicates a manufacture date early in 1967. There are some M715s on the Zone that puts that 10040-10050...

To prevent you from bumping your head on it? Probably, my guess it as a deterrent to those who want to grab hold of the antenna base if they are climbing on the truck. Red indicates "WARNING", and there's a lot of RF juice running through that antenna while in operation.

Ditto on the filters - my deuce had the same problem on the trip to and from Aberdeen. Changing the primary fuel filter at the show produced a muddy old filter. I'm sure the secondaries are the same way since they are 6700 miles old as well. Filters are the cost we pay for running crap fuel...

Cabell said he's coming up to Syria VA on Memorial Day weekend, and we are planning on doing some trail scouting and light clearing on Saturday May 28th. I plan on doing some work that day, already cleared my schedule so I can help. Anyone else local to Central VA wanna help out? We have...

Very nice! There is another guy on SS who restored a GRC-46 set, put it in his M37 like he had in the service. Here's a pic:

And two last ones...

A few more....

I have never owned a 10-ton truck, but I have some pics of ones I liked in the past. For your viewing and drooling pleasure...

It's time to get started thinking about the dates for the fall RC rally in central PA. When would be good for everyone in October?

Those Russian tanker trailers were used to haul liquid rocket fuel for the ICBM missiles that other tractors hauled. reb87 - that's a long train of trailers there, takes a special person who is comfortable with doubles that can handle that. Too much truck for me....

careful, kip - with doghead that's not an insult, that's a request. rofl

My deuce will be getting a front pintle sometime this year. Just in case I need to do some tricky trailer maneuvering like you did.

Cuz they are ugly and noone likes them. :wink:

I don't know if it's a separate NSN, the picture above looks like the piece is welded to the fenders.

Need close up pics and dimensions of the circled area on the M762 1/2-ton trailer, which is the flatbed version of the M416 cargo trailer. Can't find the parts I need, so I am going to have them made up.

I don't think CARNAC is against haggling, I think he is against hagglers that expect him to drop the price in half. If someone offered $30 on a $35 item, he might take that deal. But $20 on a $35 item? Sorry, walk on, bub.

I got home at 8:30 last night, 133 miles one way took 3.5 hours in the deuce. My truck suffered from a slow ride due to crappy year-old fuel (diesel and gas mix) on the ride there. Before the trip home I changed the primary filter, it was really sad looking, and added 20 gallons of fresh...

Okay guys I'm out the door, have to shop in town for some food for the show, get the last of the gear packed and I;m rolling outta here soon. Plan to arrive sometime this evening. I'm tired NOW, only got 5 hours sleep, tell you what I'm gonna look forward to a night camped out in a cot in the...

It's a shame, but many vendors leave by midday on Saturday, even when the weather is nice. Always seemed odd to me why so many vendors are in a rush to get back home when this is the biggest event on the East Coast, not to mention if you love your hobby, why are you in such a big hurry to head...

If you need a rear bumper, I've got you covered....
