    Do I need an SF97?

    In TX the SF97 has to be processed by the person who purchased it through the government (I know because I sold a 1009 with SF97 only and had to go back and title it for the new owner) so even if some states such as AL don't require a title for vehicles over a certain age if it were to be sold...

    MEP-003A Facelift

    Looks nice. I finally got a starter relay for mine after 6+ months and plan to try firing it up this weekend. I could always get it to run but as soon as you release the "start" knob, no matter how long it was running, it would die. Still need to find a cover for mine. Looks like your's...

    Need Preview for "Mystery" Deuce & Issues

    Pass me the information. It may be the same one a friend looked at that said all the gauges worked but the oil gauge so that spooked him. I can still look at it one way or the other for you.

    Vets Fighting MS West Coast VA Road Trip

    OPCOM, I've been following your build. That is going to be one awesome truck when you get it finished. I think I've devised a set up to shuttle the a/c from the box directly into the cab to keep things cool (I'll post the idea if it turns out it works:-D) because that will be the only way I...

    Vets Fighting MS West Coast VA Road Trip

    Thanks for the offer! This year, however, will be just the west coast then on to the MVPA Convention in Topeka. I would like to visit the Center for Excellence in Boston though so if this one goes off without too much drama I'll be looking at going on an east coast tour next year. Since this...

    Vets Fighting MS West Coast VA Road Trip

    Thanks for the advice and the links. I had only been thinking of other MV folks helping out and hadn't stopped to consider that there'll be a lot more regular vehicles passing me if I'm broke down than deuces.

    Vets Fighting MS West Coast VA Road Trip

    Okay some further planning for the trip: I have a medium towbar with the correct CUCV feet. I think it probably best that I bring it along but don't really want to be tripping over it. What's the opinion of me just mounting it on the front like an RVer's tow vehicle and driving like that...

    Vets Fighting MS West Coast VA Road Trip

    Didn't know about the Facebook issue until after I posted it. One more way for them to nab your info to send junk mail out. At this point the route is: San Antonio - Las Cruces on day 1 Las Cruces - Tuscon day 2 - this is where the schedule gets bogged down. I'm not sure how long I will be...

    Vets Fighting MS West Coast VA Road Trip

    Thanks for the offer. I can tell you that my wife is already being a PITA about the trip. She supports without reservation but keeps putting demands on me, take the dog, stop every hour, don't talk to strangers...You get the idea. I am thinking of using Lavarocks DUVAC replacement idea to...

    Vets Fighting MS West Coast VA Road Trip

    Okay folks, starting the planning for an ambitious road trip to visit VA hospitals in 8 states to promote the Veterans Fighting Multiple Sclerosis web site. The main goal is to get attention out there and set up a network of veterans helping other vets. I'm guessing I'll need help along the...

    Just won a M1010

    Well I always knew I wasn't lucky. Vehicles have been sitting gathering snow in Solon, IA since before Christmas. Shipper keeps saying there's too much snow to move. I can understand wanting to make sure everything is safe and all but he could have headed out at 10mph and been in TX by now.

    EUC over 60 days, auction cancelled!

    Other than the event/lot number I just copy my EUCs word for word from the previous one. I've done 12 this year and the longest was about 35 days. Most are within 10 business days and 1 was under 5. That's the 1 I believe went to BC the same day I submitted it to GL. Of course I'm now at 45...

    M101A3 Trailer Camp Shelby, MS to San Antonio, TX

    Can't help with the transport but would like to meet you once in S.A. New duty station? We've got a great MVPA club here and will probably be starting a restoration project on the Camp Bullis (Nat'l Guard) Jeep (actually a MUTT but jeep is what they call it). Always looking for new members...

    Speedo way too fast

    There's a speed sensor that the bottom end of the speedo cable goes through into the TC. Mine was busted when GL was kind enough to trash the TC with a forklift. I pulled it off and just stuck the speedo back in without it. My speedo is now 5mph slow (as tested with a gps) but if you know...

    Recovery disaster - Long

    Agree on the need for an update. In regards to WVHillbilly, I can understand your position. Some people like buying new cars versus used ones as well because there's a sense that it is after all new so shouldn't break down. I'm sure the woman who bought the 2010 Camaro and drove 5 miles off...

    Looking at a trailer mounted MEP-003a at GL

    That genset will require an EUC as well so expect some time in February (at minimum) before you can pick it up. I bought one back in April and have just now located a starter relay for it that wasn't going to cost 10% of what I paid for the generator. Don't get me wrong, I love my unit and...

    OD Iron AC install for the AC novice

    It sounds like he's telling you to get everything closely fitted from the inside with the lines on and then judge where the lines look closest on the firewall. Probably drilling a small pilot hole where you think it should go (slooooowly) and then you can judge from the engine compartment where...

    Remarkably ridiculous

    Or you could be picking up at Minot, ND. You have 10 business days but we're not open Monday or Friday and Tue, Wed, Thur we're only there until 11am but you better get that vehicle off of here in 10 business days. Sure wish I could have worked their schedule when I had a regular job.
