-----ran when parked---?

Hey! I'm just about smack in the middle between you two!Close to 140miles north to Lenore and a bit more South to Twin from here in McCall, ID. Sorry I cant offer advice on the SF-97 situation--my gasser was from a local fire dept and already had a "normal" title. Sounds like yer local DMV...

Hi-Lift Jacks!! Oh ,Heck yea !!---nothing like knocking yer boogers flat with the ol' Acme Longhandled Lipsplitter!!!Mankinds perfect combination of physics and other-worldly evil!! Thanks for the heads up! My gasser don't have a spare tire carrier now but thought I would take the one off the...

Ah, Yes!! Winning the "battle" for the hearts and minds of future legislators and local P&Z members!!Brilliant!Thanks for sharing a cool idea!:-D

Went down to check it out more and take pics(will down load off camera later).Yes: tulsa winch,split style steer axle,15 feet from center of steer to center of rear idler.Found 4 combat wheels-3 are 8.25/20 and one is 11.00/20.Has steering box to steering wheel and foot pedals.The engine sitting...

NDT ,Thanks--The engine looked to have a small diamond cast into the left upper side of the block.The diamond had something within it but I didnt look close.Engine did not appear to be OD green though.There was an oil pan that had OD green paint on it leaning up against the frame--seem to be a...

The front end is in the bushes so its hard to see well but the winch and bumper all look complete.Also there is one track and a couple of combat wheels with tires that I'm guessing belong to the 'track cuz they were lying pretty close to the frame.Also there is an OHV International 6 cyl engine...

I'll put this here because we dont have a Halftrack section---I may be able to get a half track frame.It doesn't have much left but I still don't want it going to China in 4' chunks! HAS:winch and winch bumper,steer axle,steer box,running boards,drive axle,right side bogies set-up (from the VERY...

Finally got daylight with no rain so as to get some pics of your truck's "twin".Ours also has a heater but haven't checked out whether factory or a "custom add on" like the winch.(Serial # research shows this truck to be no winch/cargo model.)

In this miserable economy, I could no way justify ownership and enjoyment of my M35 gasser just being able to use it for events and parades--I HAVE to make it"pay it's way" by normal everyday usage--drive to work,then go get lumber--haul tractors and stuff for the place, ETC.If my state passed a...

Yep-- we got'er done--Ran a thread cleaner-upper over the end and got the nut on it-- now that wiper motor has decided to simply go to one end of it's travel and stay there--no back and forth action at all.:roll:May take it off and clean/take apart and check. Got the good wiper on the Drivers...

Mystery steer axle Thanks for the input-- this G506 according to the serial numbers was a no winch model BUT has a "custom" winch installed that another member here thought may be the same type used on half tracks(Tulsa--and looking over pics of halftracks I'd guess that it is).Is it possible...

Afew weeks ago we ended up taking delivery on our latest project--a 1942 G-506 11/2 ton chevy(actually drove it home).It came with a few extra parts--2 drop-ins ,a steer axle shaft,a complete steer axle and other goodies that belong with the Chevy. BUT amongst those was another steer axle that...

Well, I guess thats a sign of getting old---the under side of the shaft(I was looking down from above,standing up in the open cab)had some buggered threads that my old rusty eyeballs didn't detect before.Opps my bad--chased the damaged threads and we fixed.We are wipered now--and if I can get...

I'm trying to install the new windshield wiper arm I bought for the right side of the gasser but the special nut that holds it in place on the shaft does't seem to be starting easy---like wrong thread.Did these HAVE different thread(dif.models/years etc.)??This nut came with the new wiper...

Looks very nice-- more pics please!

I once overheard a proffesional restorer of mv's telling a do it yourselfer (borrowing a corner of the pros shop to finish his Jeep)not to worry that his attempt at stencilling wasn't PERFECT.He said it actually made it look more realistic cuz you gotta remember a lot of the time paint jobs in...

WTH!! LOL!! It's the same color of blue as "the General", our new toy we just picked up!!!Nice find. We'll have to get some pics posted on here of our truck(has wood flatbed)--gotta be some kinda conspiracy LOL!!:-D Jim and Shawn

A couple of weekends ago we went and picked up our latest toy.A 1942 Chevy G-506 1 1/2 ton truck. There is a winch installed but according to the serial number of the truck, this is a no-winch,no dumper, cargo truck.The "custom" install winch is a Tulsa brand PTO driven---question: what brand of...

Ahem---in Idaho's Arctic (Central Mountains) we have Winter and Getting Ready For Winter:-D.Didn't bother to take pics of our last Saturday nites 5" snowfall- it's so common to have "anytime" of the year snowfall here.In fact, last year when I drove the Deuce home for the first time,it was in a...
